Across a horizontal distance of 25 feet, a roller coaster has a steep drop. The height of the roller coaster at the bottom of th

e drop is -125 feet, compared to its height at the top of the drop. What is the average amount that the roller coaster's height changes over each horizontal foot?

X = total horizontal distance = 25 ft

Y = total vertical distance = 125 ft

x = horizontal distance = 1 ft

y = vertical distance = ?

using the equation

y = (Y/X) (x)

inserting the values

y = (125/25) (1)

y = 5 ft

hence for each horizontal foot, the average height change is 5 ft

or

25 ft horizontal distance traveled = 125 ft vertical distance dropped

dividing both side by 25

25 ft horizontal distance traveled/25 = 125 ft vertical distance dropped/25

1 foot horizontal distance traveled = 25 ft vertical distance dropped

Answer: -5

Explanation: You correctly divided the absolute values, but since you are dividing a negative height by a positive number of horizontal feet, the answer is negative. What the hell I thought this answer was supposed to be verified....By who the same person that gave the wrong answer?????

Answer:

If an object has a high density then the molicules making up that object are closly packed togeather. Because of this, objects with a higher density will have more mass than objects of the same size that have a lesser density.

What is the acceleration of a proton moving with a speed of 6.5 m/s at right angles to a magnetic field of 1.5 T?
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

The acceleration of the proton is 9.353 x 10⁸ m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

speed of the proton, u =  6.5 m/s

magnetic field strength, B = 1.5 T

The force of the proton is given by;

F = ma = qvB(sin90°)

ma = qvB

where;

m is mass of the proton, = 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷ kg

charge of the proton, q = 1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

The acceleration of the proton is given by;

a = \frac{qvB}{m}\\\\a = \frac{(1.602*10^{-19})(6.5)(1.5)}{1.67*10^{-27}}\\\\a = 9.353*10^8 \ m/s^2

Therefore, the acceleration of the proton is 9.353 x 10⁸ m/s²

A 3.0-kg brick rests on a perfectly smooth ramp inclined at 34° above the horizontal. The brick is kept from sliding down the pl
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

d=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm

Explanation:

Given data

m (Mass)=3.0 kg

α(incline) =34°

Spring Constant (force constant)=120 N/m

d (distance)=?

Solution

F=mg

F=(3.0)(9.8)

F=29.4 N

As we also know that

Force parallel to the incline=FSinα

F=29.4×Sin(34)

F=16.44 N

d(distance)=F/Spring Constant

d(distance)=16.44/120

d(distance)=0.137 m ⇒13.7 cm
