The speed of the roller coater at the bottom of the hill is 31 m/s.

<h3>Speed of the roller coater at the bottom of the hill</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of mechanical energy as follows;

K.E(bottom) = P.E(top)

¹/₂mv² = mgh

v² = 2gh

v = √2gh

where;

  • v is the speed of the coater at bottom hill
  • h is the height of the hill
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

v = √(2 x 9.8 x 49)

v = 31 m/s

Thus, the speed of the roller coater at the bottom of the hill is 31 m/s.

scoray [572]

Answer:

A)s = 104.16 m

b)s= 104.16 m

Explanation:

Given that

u = 25 m/s

μ = 0.3

The friction force will act opposite to the direction of motion.

Fr= μ m g

Fr= -  m a

a=acceleration

μ m g = - m a

a= - μ g

a= - 0.3 x 10 m/s²          ( take g= 10 m/s²)

a= - 3  m/s²

The final speed of the mass is zero ,v= 0

We know that

v² = u² +2 a s

s=distance

0² = 25² - 2 x 3 x s

625 = 6 s

s = 104.16 m

By using energy conservation

Work done by all the forces =Change in the kinetic energy

- Fr.s=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2-\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2

Negative sign because force act opposite to the displacement.

- \mu\ m\ g \ s=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2-\dfrac{1}{2}mu^2

-\mu\ g \ s=\dfrac{1}{2}v^2-\dfrac{1}{2}u^2

-0.3\times 10\times \ s=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0^2-\dfrac{1}{2}\times 25^2

- 3 x 2 x s = - 625

s= 104.16 m

Thing 1 and Thing 2 push with a force of 2000 N to move a rather small 500 kg elephant 30 m across the kitchen floor. How much w
Amanda [17]

Answer:

60000 J

Explanation:

Assuming the force is applied parallel to the displacement of the elephant, the work done to move it across the floor is

W=Fd

where

F = 2000 N is the force applied

d = 30 m is the displacement of the elephant

Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find

W=(2000 N)(30 m)=60,000 J
