Some of the energy the car gained as it was pulled was lost because of heat from friction. The rest of the energy was transforme

d into potential energy. How much potential energy does the roller coaster car have at the top of the first hill? Use PE = m × g × h, and assume that g = 9.8 m/sec2.

Answer:

454,320 joules

Explanation:

The work done on an object is equal to its change in kinetic energy: Change in KE = F × d.

Plug the values for F and d into the formula and solve:

Change in KE = 2,524 × 180

= 454,320 joules

The roller coaster gains 454,320 joules of energy from the work done on it by the chain.

A passenger in a helicopter traveling upwards at 15 m/s accidentally drops a package out the window. If it takes 15 seconds to r
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The helicopter was 1103.63 meters high when the package was dropped.

Explanation:

We consider positive speed as a downward movement

y: height (m)

t: time (s)

v₀: initial speed (m/s)

Δy = v₀t + \frac{1}{2}gt²

Δy= 15\frac{m}{s}×15 s + \frac{1}{2}×9.81\frac{m}{s^{2} }×(15 s)²

Δy= 1103.63 m

Without Newton’s third law of motion, what would an object sitting on a table do?
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Newton's third law: If an object A exerts a force on object B, then object B must exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction back on object A. This law represents a certain symmetry in nature: forces always occur in pairs, and one body cannot exert a force on another without experiencing a force itself.

If a tank contains water 4 m deep, what is the pressure at the bottom of the tank? (Neglect the atmospheric pressure.)
makkiz [27]

Given:

Water 4 m deep

Required:

Pressure at the bottom of the tank

Solution:

p2 – p1 = gh

p2 – p1 = p = gh

p = gh = 1000kg/m3 (9.8m/s2)(4m)

<span>p = 39200 Pa</span>
