Two cars - Car A and Car B - drive in the same direction down a street. Car B is traveling at 30 m/s. Car A is traveling 20 m/s.

Imagine that you're sitting inside Car A and Car B passes you. What is the velocity of Car B relative to you? Don't forget UNITS.

At the top of a hill a roller coaster has gravitational potential energy due to its position. What happend to this potential ene
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

As the roller coaster speeds up on the way down the hill, the potential energy of  roller coaster will be converted to kinetic energy.

<h3>What is Conservation of Energy ?</h3>

Conservation of energy state that energy is neither created nor destroy, they can only be transformed from one form to another. Energy of and object can transform from Potential energy to kinetic energy and vice versa

Given that at the top of a hill a roller coaster has gravitational potential energy due to its position. What will happen to this potential energy as the roller coaster speeds up on the way down the hill is that the potential energy to the roller coaster will start decreasing while the kinetic energy will start to increase.

The total energy of the roller coaster will be constant because of conservation of energy. As the roller coaster speeds up on the way down the hill, the potential energy will eventually reduce to zero where the total energy of the as the roller coaster will be equal to maximum kinetic energy.

Therefore, as the roller coaster speeds up on the way down the hill, the potential energy of  roller coaster will be converted to kinetic energy.

Earth is about 150 million kilometers from the Sun, and the apparent brightness of the Sun in our sky is about 1300 watts/m2. Us
nalin [4]

Answer:

13 W/m^2

Explanation:

The apparent brightness follows an inverse square law, therefore we can write:

I \propto \frac{1}{r^2}

where I is the apparent brightness and r is the distance from the Sun.

We can also rewrite the law as

\frac{I_2}{I_1}=\frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2} (1)

where in this problem, we have:

I_1 = 1300 W/m^2 apparent brightness at a distance r_1, where

r_1 = 150 million km

We want to estimate the apparent brightness at r_2, where r_2 is ten times r_1, so

r_2 = 10 r_1

Re-arranging eq.(1), we find I_2:

I_2 = \frac{r_1^2}{r_2^2}I_1 = \frac{r_1^2}{(10r_1)^2}(1300)=\frac{1}{100}(1300)=13 W/m^2

How do I differentiate between final and initial velocity in Physics?​
pychu [463]

Answer:

Initial velocity describes how fast an object travels when gravity first applies force on the object. On the other hand, the final velocity is a vector quantity that measures the speed and direction of a moving body after it has reached its maximum acceleration.

Jon's bathtub is rectangular and its base is 18 ft2. (a) How fast is the water level rising if Jon is filling the tub at a rate
Kitty [74]

Answer:

The water level in the bath tub is rising at a rate of 0.0111 ft/s

Explanation:

Volume of the bath tub = (Area of base) × (height)

Area of base = 18 ft² (constant)

Height = h (variable)

V = 18h

(dV/dt) = 18 (dh/dt)

If (dV/dt) = 0.2 ft³/s

0.2 = 18 (dh/dt)

(dh/dt) = (0.2/18)

(dh/dt) = 0.0111 ft/s

Hope this Helps!!!

Kepler’s third law can be used to derive the relation between the orbital period, P (measured in days), and the semimajor axis,
NikAS [45]
Kepler's 3rd law is given as
P² = kA³
where
P = period, days
A = semimajor axis, AU
k = constant

Given:
P = 687 days
A = 1.52 AU

Therefore
k = P²/A³ = 687²/1.52³ = 1.3439 x 10⁵ days²/AU³

Answer:  1.3439 x 10⁵ (days²/AU³)
