A car at the top of a ramp starts from rest and rolls to the bottom of the ramp, achieving a certain final speed. If you instead
zimovet [89]

Answer:

It must be 4 times high.

Explanation:

  • Assuming that the car can be treated as a point mass, and that the ramp is frictionless, the total mechanical energy must be conserved.
  • This means, that at any time, the following must be true:
  • ΔK (change in kinetic energy) = ΔU (change in gravitational potential energy)

⇒      m*g*h = \frac{1}{2} * m*v^{2}

  • Let's call v₁, to the final speed of the car, and h₁ to the height of the ramp.

       So, at the bottom of the ramp, all the gravitational potential energy

      must be equal to the kinetic energy of the car (Defining the bottom of

      the ramp as our zero reference for the gravitational potential energy):

       m*g*h_{1}  = \frac{1}{2} * m*v_{1} ^{2}  (1)

  • Now, let's do v₂ = 2* v₁
  • Replacing in (1) we get:

        m*g*h_{2}  = \frac{1}{2} * m*(2*v_{1}) ^{2} (2)

  • Dividing (2) by (1), and rearranging terms, we get:
  • h₂ = 4* h₁

The coil of a generator has a radius of 0.14 m. When this coil is unwound, the wire from which it is made has a length of 10.0 m
adell [148]

Answer:

5.565 V

Explanation:

Radius of coil of generator=r=0.14 m

Length of wire=l=10 m

Magnetic field,B=0.24 T

Angular speed,\omega=34rad/s

We have to find the peak emf of the generator.

N=\frac{l}{2\pi r}=\frac{10}{2\pi\times 0.14}=11

A=\pi r^2=\pi (0.14)^2=0.062m^2

Peak(maximum) induced emf of generator=E_{max}=NBA\omega

Using the formula

E_{max}=11\times 0.24\times 0.062\times 34

E_{max}=5.565 V

Molecular motion is a measure of the movement of the molecules in a substance. Molecular motion is substantially different betwe
scZoUnD [109]
<span>Generally speaking, the level of molecular motion is highest in gases, where molecules move around freely in space, bouncing off of each other, and lowest in solids, where molecules are bound together in a rigid structure. As such, the answer would be A; "the molecules in air move more than the molecules in wood".</span>

The length of a simple pendulum is 0.66 m, the pendulum bob has a mass of 310 grams, and it is released at an angle of 12 degree
lina2011 [118]
A) the periodic time is given by the equation;
 T= 2π√(L/g)
For the frequency will be obtained by 1/T (Hz)
T = 2 × 3.14 √ (0.66/9.81)
   = 6.28 × √0.0673
    = 1.6289 Seconds
Frequency = 1/T = f = 1/1.6289
 thus; frequency = 0.614 Hz

b)  The vertical distance, the height is given by
 h= 0.66 cos 12
 h = 0.65 m
Vertical fall at the lowest point = 0.66 - 0.65 = 0.01 m
Applying conservation of energy
energy lost (MgΔh) = KE gained (1/2mv²)
 mgh = 1/2mv²
  v² = 2gΔh = 2×9.81 × 0.01 
                   = 0.1962
v = 0.443 m/s

c) total energy = KE + GPE = KE when GPE is equal to zero (at the lowest point possible)
Thus total energy is equal to;
E = 1/2mv²
   = 1/2 × 0.310 × 0.443²
   = 0.0304 J
