lys-0071 [83]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The amount of movement is the product of the mass of a body because of its speed, the speed is that of the center of mass; The equation is:

    p = mv

Where v is the velocity of the center of mass of the body, what we have to do is clear the velocity

      V = p / m

  It is our case for each body and as the amount of movement is a vector we must write it for each axis

   V1x = p1x / m1

   V2x = p2x / m2

At what minimum speed must a roller coaster be traveling when upside down at the top of a circle so that the passengers do not f
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

v_{min} \approx 17.153\,\frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The roller coaster begins with maximum kinetic energy and no gravitational potential energy. The gravitational potential energy reaches its maximum when roller coaster is upside down at the top of the circle. The physical model for the roller coaster is constructed by means of the Principle of Energy Conservation:

\frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v_{min}^{2} = m\cdot g \cdot h

The minimum velocity is:

v_{min} = \sqrt{2\cdot g \cdot h}

Let assume that radio of curvature is measured in meters. Hence:

v_{min} = \sqrt{2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot(15\,m)}

v_{min} \approx 17.153\,\frac{m}{s}

Matthew throws a ball straight up into the air. It rises for a period of time and then begins to drop. At which points in the ba
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

If air resistance is taken as negligible, then the ball is in freefall the moment it is thrown so gravity is the only force acting on the object. If air resistance is not negligible then gravity will be the greatest force acting on the ball while it is going up and coming down, because Fair has to be less than gravity at all times otherwise the atmosphere would wither away.

Which statements apply to density? Check all that apply.
aivan3 [116]

The only statement on the options that says true about density is:> The density of an object determines whether it will sink or float.

Why?Density is a physical property of an object.

Density is not derived as a unit of measure. It is derived from 2 fundamental units: kg and m.

The Density of an object is not constant.

Density is calculated by dividing the mass by the volume of an object.

72. An object travels at a constant velocity of 15 m/s for 5.0 seconds. How far does
Gennadij [26K]

Answer: 125 m/s

Multiply 15 m/s by 5.0 minutes, because this will give you the product.

15 x 5.0 = 125.

Add the m/s sign to the 125. 125 m/s.

Answer = 125 m/s. Hope this helps!
