<u>Answer</u>

9 m


<u>Explanation</u>

The energy stored in a spring is given by:

Energy = 1/2 k²e

Where e is the compression and k is the spring constant.

 Energy = 1/2 × 176,400 × 0.2²

              = 3,528 N

The same energy will then be converted to potential energy given by:

Energy = mgh

Where m is the mass, g is the gravity and h is the height above the ground.

Energy = mgh

3,528 = 40 × 9.8 × h

3,528 = 392h

h = 9 m

What is the mechanical energy of a 500kg rollercoaster car moving with a speed of 3m/s at the top hill that is 30m high
koban [17]

K.E = 1/2*m*v^2 = 1/2(500)(3)^2 = 2250 J

m*g*h = 500(9.8)(30) = 147000 J

2250 + 147000 = 149250

Why does the closed top of a convertible bulge when the car is riding along a highway? Why does the closed top of a convertible
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Option D

The air pressure inside the car is greater than the pressure outside.

Explanation:

When considering airflow over and around a surface, from Bernoulli's equation, air flow regions with higher velocity have a lower pressure, and regions with lower velocity have a higher pressure.

The air outside the convertible is moving faster than the air inside the convertible. This leads to a higher pressure zone just below the surface of the roof (inside the car) causing the roof of the convertible to bulge upwards

3) Magnets are used to separate steel cans from aluminum cans in recycling plants. How can
Elden [556K]

Answer:

Since steel contains iron (a magnetic metal), the magnets will attract the steel cans since aluminum is not magnetic. This is used to separate the steel cans from the aluminum cans so they can be recycled separately.

What is the displacement of the runner in 4 laps? *<br> 2 point
Serhud [2]

Answer:

There is no displacement.

Explanation:

Because the runner is running laps and returning to the original place, there is no displacement as displacement is relative to the change in location from the original position.

Hope this helps. . .
