Three mountain climbers set out to climb a mountain from the same altitude and all arrive at the same location at the top. Mount

ain climber A took a long gradual slope to the top, B went a steeper but shorter path, and C tackled the sheer straight side to the top. Assume all three climbers have the same mass. Which climber gained the greatest potential energy?A. AB. BC. CD. all did the same amount of work

Answer:All did same amount of work

Explanation:

All three mountain climbers took different routes to reach the peak. There is a constant gravity force acting on the object i.e. gravity force. Gravity force is conservative i.e. work done by a conservative force is independent of the path followed.

Therefore work done by all the mountain climbers is the same i.e. all did the same amount of work.

Number of vibrations (waves) in an amount of time
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

I think frequency not sure though

How frequently a wave or vibration occurs during a span of time, determines the waves frequency. Frequency is the number of waves per unit time. The unit for frequency if a Hertz ( 1/second). The speed a wave travels is the wavelength multiplied by this frequency. The amplitude of a wave is the maximum distance the wave is displaced.

A 912-kg car is being driven down a straight, level road at a constant speed of 31.5 m/s. When the driver sees a police cruiser
sergejj [24]

Answer:

786.6 N

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 912 kg

initial velocity of car, u = 31.5 m/s

final velocity of car, v = 24.6 m/ s

time, t = 8 s

Let a be the acceleration of the car

Use first equation of motion

v = u + a t

24.6 = 31.5 + a x 8

a = - 0.8625 m/s^2

Force, F = mass x acceleration

F = 912 x 0.8625

F = 786.6 N

Thus, the force on the car is 786.6 N.

Using the formula 1/2 (m x v2), what is the kinetic energy of a 4 kg rock falling through the air at 5 m/s
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

KE = 50J

Explanation:

KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} \\\\ KE = \frac{1}{2}(4)(5)^{2} \\\\ KE = 2(25) \\\\ KE = 50J
