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 fire truck has a searchlight with a resistance of 60 (ohm) which is placed across a 24-V battery. What is the current in this
Mariulka [41]

Answer: 0.4 Amps

Explanation:

Voltage of battery = 24 Volts

Current I = ?

Resistance of searchlight (R)= 60ohms (Ω is the symbol for ohms)

Then, apply the formula for ohms law

Voltage = Current x resistance

i.e V = I x R

24V = I x 60Ω

I = 24V / 60Ω

I = 0.4 Amps (Amps is the unit of current)

Thus, the current in the circuit is 0.4 Amps

Sound waves have relatively long wavelengths. We can hear people around the corner before we can see them. Which wave behavior d
pogonyaev
I'd say diffraction since sound waves can bend around objects like corners. Let's say you're in the hallway and you can hear sound coming from a door. The sound waves diffract around the door and spread out into the hallway, making it possible for you to hear.  
Also, you can hear it before you see it because light waves are shorter than sound waves and hardly diffract around doors.

What are the units of radiation?
Ksenya-84 [330]

The radiation dose absorbed by a person is measured using the conventional unit rad or the SI unit gray. The biological risk of exposure to radiation is measured using the conventional unit rem or the SI unit sievert.

I hope this helps!
