Examine the roller coaster track above. Assume there is negligible friction as the roller coaster moves from position A to posit

ion F. Also assume that the roller coaster has minimal kinetic energy at point A. Create three different models below to describe the kinetic energy, the potential energy, and the total energy of the roller coaster at point E. Examples of models include, but are not limited to: pie charts, bar graphs, equations, textual descriptions, and analogies.

At point E

  • the kinetic energy of the rollercoaster is small compared to the potential energy
  • the potential energy is greater than the kinetic energy
  • the total energy is a mixture of potential and kinetic energy

<h3>What is the energy of the roller coaster at point E?</h3>

The energy of a roller coaster could either be potential energy, kinetic energy or a combination of both potential and kinetic energy.

Using analogies, the energy of the roller coaster at point E can be compared to a falling fruit from a tree which falls onto a pavement and is the rolling towards the floor. Point E can be compared to the midpoint of the fall of the fruit.

At point E

  • the kinetic energy of the rollercoaster is small compared to the potential energy
  • the potential energy is greater than the kinetic energy
  • the total energy is a mixture of potential and kinetic energy

In conclusion, the energy of the rollercoaster at E is both Kinetic and potential energy,

Friends Burt and Ernie stand at opposite ends of a uniform log that is floating in a lake. The log is 3.0 m long and has mass 20
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The distance the log has moved by the time Ernie reaches Bur is 1.33 m.

Explanation:

give information:

The log is 3.0 m long and has mass 20.0 kg.

Burt has mass 30.0 kg; Ernie has mass 40.0 kg

Ernie has mass 40.0 kg.

to find the distance, first, we have to calculate the center of mass

X = ∑ m x /∑m

   = (20 x (3/2)) + (30 x 0) + (40 x 3)/ (20+30+40)

   = 150/90

   = 5/3

when Ernie walk, the center of the mass is

X = (70 x 0) + (20 x (3/2))/(70 + 20)

  = 30/90

  = 1/3

the distance of log moved = 5/3 - 4/3 = 1.33 m

Consider the two moving boxcars in Example 5. Car 1 has a mass of m1 = 65000 kg and a velocity of v01 = +0.80 m/s. Car 2 has a m
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

1.034m/s

Explanation:

We define the two moments to develop the problem. The first before the collision will be determined by the center of velocity mass, while the second by the momentum preservation. Our values are given by,

m_1 = 65000kg\\v_1 = 0.8m/s\\m_2 = 92000kg\\v_2 = 1.2m/s

<em>Part A)</em> We apply the center of mass for velocity in this case, the equation is given by,

V_{cm} = \frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

Substituting,

V_{cm} = \frac{(65000*0.8)+(92000*1.2)}{92000+65000}

V_{cm} = 1.034m/s

Part B)

For the Part B we need to apply conserving momentum equation, this formula is given by,

m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f

Where here v_f is the velocity after the collision.

v_f = \frac{m_1v_1+m_2v_2}{m_1+m_2}

v_f = \frac{(65000*0.8)+(92000*1.2)}{92000+65000}

v_f = 1.034m/s

An electric charge, A, is placed carefully between two other charges, B and C, and experiences no net electric force. Do B
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

I do not have  enough information to tell

Explanation:

This is deduced due to the fact that if the net force due to B and C on A is zero, the charges on B and C could either be positive or negative depending on the charge on A.

A conductor differs from an insulator in that a conductor.
Zina [86]

Answer:

has free electrons

Explanation:

A conductor has free electrons while an insulator does not. Free electrons are electrons which are not bounded tightly to their parent atoms, and are free to move given the right conditions (ie. a strong EM field).

The haystack maker tractor lifted 120 kg of grass to a height of 5 meters in 6 seconds. Calculate the power of the haystack make
Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

1000 Joules per second.

Explanation:

To lift that much grass 5 meters higher than it was before the tractor did work that is the product of the (force needed to overdo gravity) and (displacement):

W = mg\Delta h=120kg\cdot 10\frac{m}{s^2}\cdot 5m = 6000J

Power is work over the amount of time:

P = \frac{W}{\Delta t}=\frac{6000J}{6 s} = 1000 \frac{J}{s}
