How does mass effect potential and kinetic energy on a roller coaster?

Physics

Potential energy is measured by mass * gravity * height. So, the larger the mass on a roller coaster, the more potential energy it has. 

Also, the higher it is, the more potential energy it has.

For a 50 kV anode voltage, what is the maximum photon energy of the x-ray radiation?
V125BC [204]

Answer:

The energy of photon, E=8\times 10^{-15}\ J

Explanation:

It is given that,

Voltage of anode, V=50\ kV=50\times 10^3\ V=5\times 10^4\ V

We need to find the maximum energy of the photon of the x- ray radiation. The energy required to raise an electron through one volt is called electron volt.

E=eV

e is charge of electron

E=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 5\times 10^4

E=8\times 10^{-15}\ J

So, the maximum energy of the x- ray radiation is 8\times 10^{-15}\ J. Hence, this is the required solution.

One end of an insulated metal rod is maintained at 100 ∘C and the other end is maintained at 0.00 ∘C by an ice–water mixture. Th
lozanna [386]

Answer:

k=105.0359\times 10^4\,W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}

Explanation:

Given:

temperature at the hotter end, T_H=100^{\circ}C

temperature at the cooler end, T_C=0^{\circ}C

length of rod through which the heat travels, dx=0.7\,m

cross-sectional area of rod, A=1.1\times 10^{-4}\,cm^2

mass of ice melted at zero degree Celsius, m=8.7\times 10^{-3}\,kg

time taken for the melting of ice, t=15\times60=900\,s

thermal conductivity k=?

By Fourier's Law of conduction we have:

\dot{Q}=k.A.\frac{dT}{dx}......................................(1)

where:

\dot{Q}=rate of heat transfer

dT= temperature difference across the length dx

Now, we need the total heat transfer according to the condition:

we know the latent heat of fusion of ice,  L = 334000\,J.kg^{-1}

Q=m.L

Q=8.7\times 10^{-3}\times 334000

Q=2905.8\,J

Now the heat rate:

\dot{Q}=\frac{Q}{t}

\dot{Q}=\frac{2905.8}{900}

\dot{Q}=3.2287\,W

Now using eq,(1)

3.2287=k\times 1.1\times 10^{-4} \times \frac{100}{0.7}

k=205.4606\,W.m^{-1}.K^{-1}
