Determine the kinetic energy of a 10 Kg roller coaster car that is moving with a speed of 2m/s.

1 answer:

6 0

In this question all required information's are already provided. Based on these details the answer to the question can be easily determined. Let us now write down all the information's that are already given.

Mass of the roller coaster = 1000 kg

Velocity of the roller coaster = 20.0 m/s

We know the formula for finding the kinetic energy is

Kinetic energy = 0.5 * mass * (velocity) ^2

= 0.5 * 1000 * (20)^2

= 0.5 * 1000 * 400

= 200000 Joules

So the Kinetic energy of the roller coaster is 200000 joules.

i hope this helps you friend good luck on your quiz or lesson

True or False: If the initial speed of an object is zero, then the initial position of the object must be the origin. Explain

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

It is not necessary, that when the initial speed of the object is zero then it must be at origin.

It may be the object starts motion from the left of origin.

A 10.0-cm-long wire is pulled along a U-shaped conducting rail in a perpendicular magnetic field. The total resistance of the wi

Veronika [31]

A) 1.05 N

The power dissipated in the circuit can be written as the product between the pulling force and the speed of the wire:

$P=Fv$

where

P = 4.20 W is the power

F is the magnitude of the pulling force

v = 4.0 m/s is the speed of the wire

Solving the equation for F, we find

$F=\frac{P}{v}=\frac{4.20 W}{4.0 m/s}=1.05 N$

B) 3.03 T

The electromotive force induced in the circuit is:

$\epsilon=BvL$ (1)

where

B is the strength of the magnetic field

v = 4.0 m/s is the speed of the wire

L = 10.0 cm = 0.10 m is the length of the wire

We also know that the power dissipated is

$P=\frac{\epsilon^2}{R}$ (2)

where

$R=0.350 \Omega$ is the resistance of the wire

Subsituting (1) into (2), we get

$P=\frac{B^2 v^2 L^2}{R}$

And solving it for B, we find the strength of the magnetic field:

$B=\frac{\sqrt{PR}}{vL}=\frac{\sqrt{(4.20 W)(0.350 \Omega)}}{(4.0 m/s)(0.10 m)}=3.03 T$

You kick a ball with a speed of 4 m/s at an angle of 10ﾟ. How far away does the ball land?

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer: 0.55m

1. First find Vf
• 4 Sin(10)=0.7
•Vf= 0.7

2. Find time
•9.8=0.7/t
•9.8t=0.7
•t=0.07

3. Find distance
• 4 Cos(10)=d/0.14 < ————- double time
• d=0.55m
