(a) The work required to get the coaster to the top of the first hill is  1,594,538.4 J.

(b) The power required to bring the train to the top of the first hill is 39,863.46 W.

(c) The energy lost when the coaster drops is 531,512.8 J.

(d) The left at the bottom is determined as 1,063,025.6 J.

<h3>Work done to bring the rollercoaster top of the hill</h3>

W = Fn x d = mgh

W = 3874 x 9.8 x 42

W = 1,594,538.4 J

<h3>Power dissipated in bringing the rollercoaster on top hill</h3>

P = Fv

P = Fd/t

P = W/t

P = 1,594,538.4 /40 = 39,863.46 W

<h3>Energy lost when the coaster drops</h3>

E = 1,594,538.4 - (3874 x 9.8 x 28)

E = 531,512.8 J

<h3>Energy left at the bottom</h3>

E = 3874 x 9.8 x 28 = 1,063,025.6 J

AleksandrR [38]

V = 3.0 x 10⁸ m/s         (This is the same for all types of electromagnetic waves)

f = 88.6 MHz = 8.86 x 10⁷ Hz

λ = ?

V = fλ

λ = V/f = (3 x 10⁸)/(8.86 x 10⁷)

  =  3.4 m     [Ans]

You are explaining to friends why astronauts feel weightless orbiting in the space shuttle, and they respond that they thought g
MissTica
The Earth's radius is 6371 km. So that's our distance from the center when we're on the surface.

The Shuttle astronaut's distance from the center, when s/he's in orbit, is 330 km greater ... that's 6701 km.

The force of gravity is inversely proportional to the distance between the center of the Earth and the center of the astronaut. So, in orbit, it's

(6371/6701)^2 = 90.4 %

of its value on the surface.

A tetrameric protein dissociates into dimers when the detergent sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) is added to a solution of the prote
KatRina [158]

Answer:

At the dimer-dimer interface there might be acting non-covalent forces (van der waals, Hidrogene bridges, hydrophobic forces)

At the monomer-monomer interface there might be covalent forces acting (disulfide bridges).

Explanation:

On the SDS-PAGE application  works by disrupting non-covalent bonds in the proteins, and so denaturing them. Therefore, the disulfide bridges won´t be disrupted, so the monomers will remain bounded.

Find the x-component of this
valentina_108 [34]

The x-component of this vector inclined from the horizontal axis is  15m.

<h3>What is vector?</h3>

A vector is the representation of a physical quantity in magnitude and direction.

A vector incline at an angle in has two components. On in x direction and other is in y direction.

For the given length of vector = 45.6 m and the angle of inclination from the +x axis θ = 70.8°

The x component of the given vector is

= 45.6cos 70.8°

= 14.99 m

Thus, the x- component of this vector is 15m.
