1) The most potential energy is at position A

2) The most kinetic energy is at position C

Explanation:

1)

The gravitational potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position in a gravitational field, and it is given by the equation

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the object

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the object relative to the ground

From the equation, we see that the potential energy is directly proportional to the heigth of the object: therefore, the roller coaster in this problem will have the most potential energy at its highest postion, so at position A.

2)

The total mechanical energy of the roller coaster at any point along the track is given by

E=PE+KE

where

PE is the potential energy

KE is the kinetic energy

Assuming there is no friction, the mechanical energy E is constant. This means that when PE increases, KE decreases, and when PE increases, KE decreases.

Therefore, the cart will have maximum kinetic energy when the potential energy is at minimum: and since the potential energy is directly proportional to the height of the track, this will occur at the lowest position, so at position C.

A young parent is dragging a 65 kg (640 N) sled (this includes the mass of two kids) across some snow on flat ground, by means o
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

b) N = 560 N, c)  fr = 138.56 N, d)  μ = 0.247

Explanation:

a) In the attachment we can see the free body diagram of the system

b) Let's write Newton's second law on the y-axis

              N + T_y -W = 0

              N = W -T_y

let's use trigonometry for tension

             sin θ = T_y / T

             cos θ = Tₓ / T

             T_y = T sin θ

             Tₓ = T cos θ

we substitute

              N = W - T sin 30

we calculate

              N = 640 - 160 sin 30

              N = 560 N

c) as the system goes at constant speed the acceleration is zero

X axis

              Tₓ - fr = 0

               Tₓ = fr

we substitute and calculate

              fr = 160 cos 30

              fr = 138.56 N

d) the friction force has the formula

             fr = μ N

             μ = fr / N

we calculate

             μ = 138.56 / 560

             μ = 0.247

During a softball game, a batter hits a ball upward from an initial height of 3 feet. the height, in feet, of the softball is gi
Lynna [10]

Answer: 3.55 s and 0.83 s

Explanation:

The height (in feet) of the softball is given by:

s(t)=-16t²+70t+3

we need to find the time when the ball is 50 feet above the ground:

⇒50 = -16t²+70t+3

we need to solve the quadratic equation

⇒16t²-70t+47 = 0

t=\frac{70\pm \sqrt{70^2-4(16)(47)}}{2(16)}

This gives two values of time: 3.55 s and 0.83 s

What is the relationship between current and voltage in the filament of an incandescent light bulb?
lawyer [7]
An <span>incandescent light bulb is shown in the picture. The filament is the one labelled with number 3. This is a wire made usually of tungsten where the current passes to complete the flow of the electrons from the source to itself as the load. The tungsten material offers a quantity of resistance in ohms. The relationship between the current (I) , resistance (R) and voltage (V) is expressed by the Ohm's Law: V=IR. The voltage across the bulb is directly proportional to the current passing through it with the resistance of the material as its constant of proportionality. 

In short, the voltage and current are related through the filament's resistance according to Ohm's Law.</span>

A power electronics package has been designed to handle 400W of power dissipation. Find out the change in output power handling
shtirl [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

First we must find the real power that is dissipating for each of the two cases, this is achieved by multiplying the nominal power by the efficiency

P=Poη

P=power

Po=nominal power

η=efficiency

POWER NUMBER 1

P1=400*0.89=356W

POWER NUMBER 2

P2=400*0.94=376W

then we find the power change by subtracting both results

ΔP=P2-P1=376-356=20W

always ensure that the efficiency in any system is maximized, because it is always required that the amount of energy delivered by the system is maximum with the same input power.
