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?????

A tennis ball (m=0.060 kg) is moving horizontally at 20 m/s toward a tennis player who hits it straight back at 26 m/s. What is
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

0.36 kg-m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a ball, m = 0.06 kg

Initial velocity of the ball, u = 20 m/s

Final velocity of the ball, v = 26 m/s

We need to find the change in momentum of the tennis ball. It is equal to the final momentum minus initial momentum

\Delta p=m(v-u)\\\\=0.06\times (26-20)\\\\=0.36\ kg-m/s

So, the change in momentum of the ball is 0.36 kg-m/s.
