PLZ ANSWER ASAP IF YOU KNOW THIS...At the county fair, Carrie and Sam climbed up on the carousel horses. Around and around they

went; the horses also bobbed up and down. When they got off of the carousel, Carrie told Sam they had been accelerating during their ride. Sam disagreed; they had been moving at a constant speed. Whose response is fully correct, and why?
A) Carrie is, because the carousel changed speed when it started and stopped. B) Sam is, because the horses never moved from their position on the carousel. C) Carrie is, because velocity includes speed plus direction, and both changed. D) Sam is, they did not accelerate since their speed remained constant for the ride.

Water falls off a cliff of height 20m at a rate of 50kg per second
docker41 [41]

Answer:

M = 50 kg / sec * 60 sec = 3000 kg       water that falls

PE = M g h     initial potential energy of water

PE = 3000 kg * 9.8 m/s^2 * 20 m = 588,000 joules of energy lost

Answer:

Dy = - 0.0789 [m]

Explanation:

The vertical component of the vector can be determined with the sine of the angle.

Dy = 0.250*sin(18.4)

Dy = 0.0789 [m]

As the y-component is pointing downwards the component is negative.

Dy = - 0.0789 [m]

A railroad car of mass 2.50*10^4 kg is moving with a speed of 4.00 m/s. It collides and couples with three other coupled railroa
NemiM [27]

Answer:

(a) 2.5 m/s

(b) 37.5 KJ

Explanation:

(a)

From the law of conservation of momentum, Initial momentum=Final momentum

mV_1+3mV_2=(m+3m)V_f=4mV_f

V_1+3V_2=4V_f and making V_f the subject then

V_f=\frac {V_1+3V_2}{4} and since V_1 is initial velocity of car, value given as 4 m/s, V_2 is the initial velocity of the three cars stuck together, value given as 2 m/s and v_f is the final velocity which is unknown. By substitution

V_f=\frac {4+(3\times2)}{4}=2.5 m/s

(b)

Initial kinetic energy is given by

\frac {mV_1^{2}}{2}+\frac {3mV_2^{2}}{2}=\frac {m(V_1^{2}+3V_2^{2}}{2}=\frac {2.5\times 10^{4}(4^{2}+3(2^{2}))}{2}=350\times10^{3} J= 350 KJ

Final kinetic energy is given by

\frac {4mV_f^{2}}{2}=\frac {4\times 2.5\times 10^{4}\times 2.5^{2}}{2}=312.5\times 10^{3} J=312.5 KJ

The energy lost is given by subtracting the final kinetic energy from the initial kinetic energy hence

Energy lost=350-312.5=37.5 KJ
