Point 1 is PROBABLY higher up than point 4.

Another possibility is that on the way from Point 1 to point 4,
a lot of people are falling out of the coaster.

We have no way to tell, because you neglected to show us
the picture that goes with this question.  It's important.

Answer:

Potential energy is directly related to the height of an object. Point 1 is higher than point 4, so the potential energy is greater at point 1.

How much metabolic energy is required for a 68kg person to run at a speed of 15km/hr for 15min ?
irga5000 [103]
<span>What I have here is exactly the same problem, however, with the time changed to 19 mins:

metabolic energy = metabolic power*time = 1.150*19*60 = 1.311 kJ..corresponding to 1.311/4.186 = 313,2 Cal or kcal 

If we reasonably assume a metabolic eff.cy of 20%, it means we need to assume food for 1500 Cal approx.

Just plug the value t=15min to the equation and you will surely get the correct answer.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly. We hope to answer more of your questions and inquiries soon. Have a nice day ahead!

Answer:

TRUE - In any collision between two objects, the colliding objects exert equal and opposite force upon each other. This is simply Newton's law of action-reaction.

The tallest Ferris wheel in the world is located in Singapore. Standing 42 stories high and holding as many as 780 passengers, t
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The speed of the riders on the Singapore Flyer is approximately 0.262 m/s

Explanation:

The dimensions of the tallest Ferris wheel in the world are;

The diameter of the Ferris wheel, D = 150 m

The tine it takes the Ferris wheel to make a full circle, T = 30 minutes = 30 min × 60 s/min = 1,800 seconds

The angular velocity of the Ferris wheel, ω = 2·π/T

The linear velocity of the Ferris wheel, v = r·ω = The speed of the riders

Where;

r = The radius of the Ferris wheel = D/2

D = 150 m

∴ r = 150 m/2 = 75 m

∴ v = r·2·π/T

∴ v = 75 m × 2 × π/(1,800 s) ≈ 0.262 m/s

The speed of the riders on the Singapore Flyer, v ≈ 0.262 m/s
