B) Waves transmit matter but not energy as they progress through a medium.

C) Waves do not transmit matter or energy as they progress through a medium.

D) Waves transmit energy as well as matter as they progress through a medium.

The ball has 7.35 joules of potential energy at position B. At position A, all of the energy changes to kinetic energy. The velo
Lina20 [59]
I assume that the ball is stationary (v=0) at point B, so its total energy is just potential energy, and it is equal to 7.35 J. 
At point A, all this energy has converted into kinetic energy, which is:
K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2
And since K=7.35 J, we can find the velocity, v:
v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 7.35 J}{1.5 kg} }=3.1 m/s

A 980 kg roller coaster cart is traveling along a track at 17 m/s before it rolls down a 30 m tall hill (Point A). What will be
MrRissso [65]

The kinetic energy halfway the hill is 2.86\cdot 10^5 J

Explanation:

If there are no friction forces acting on the cart, we can apply the law of conservation of energy: the mechanical energy of the cart (which is the sum of potential energy + kinetic energy) must be conserved. So we can write:

U_A +K_A = U_B + K_B

where

U_A=mgh_A is the initial potential energy, at point A, with

m = 980 kg (mass of the cart)

g=9.8 m/s^2 (acceleration of gravity)

h_A = 30 m (height at point A)

K_A=\frac{1}{2}mv_A^2 is the initial kinetic energy, at point A , with

v_A=17 m/s (velocity at point A)

U_B=mgh_B is the final potential energy, at point B, where

h_B = 15 m (height at point B)

K_B=\frac{1}{2}mv_B^2 is the final kinetic energy, at point B, where

v_B is the velocity at point B

Here we are interested in finding K_B, so by re-arranging the equation and substituting we find:

K_B = U_A+K_B-U_B = mg(h_A-h_B)+\frac{1}{2}mv_A^2=(980)(9.8)(30-15)+\frac{1}{2}(980)(17)^2=2.86\cdot 10^5 J

Carlos gives a grocery cart a 60-N push. The cart has a mass of 40 kg. What is the cart's acceleration?
andre [41]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

1.5 m/s²

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

Force as 60 N

Mass of the Cart as 40 kg

We are required to calculate the acceleration of the cart.

  • From the newton's second law of motion, the rate of change in momentum is directly proportional to the resultant force.
  • That is, F = ma , where m is the mass and a is the acceleration

Rearranging the formula we can calculate acceleration, a

a = F ÷ m

  = 60 N ÷ 40 kg

  = 1.5 m/s²

Therefore, the acceleration of the cart is 1.5 m/s²
