A roller coaster car is loaded with passengers and has a mass of 500 kg along with a speed of 18 meters/second at the dip. The r

adius of curvature of the track at the bottom point of the dip is 12 meters (gravity = 9.8 meters/second2). What force is exerted on the roller coaster car by the track at the bottom of the dip?

The roller coaster is moving in a circular path, so the force that must be computed is the centripetal force. The centripetal force is the force acting on an object undergoing circular motion and is directed towards the center of the circular path. This is computed using:
F = mv²/r
F = (500 * 18²) / 12
F = 13,500 N

Now, at the bottom of the track, the track is also supporting the weight of the car and its passengers, which is:
W = mg
W = 500 * 9.81
W = 4,905 N

The total reactive force exerted by the track to counter the centripetal force and the weight of the car is:
F = 13,500 + 4,905
F = 18,405 Newtons

Heat rash is caused by chemical exposure Truth or false
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

This is false.

Explanation:

Heat rash develops when some of your sweat ducts clog. Instead of evaporating, perspiration gets trapped beneath the skin, causing inflammation and rash. Heat rash is usually self-limited, meaning it resolves on its own without treatment. Over-the-counter treatments such as calamine, hydrocortisone cream, itch preparations (such as Benadryl spray), or sunburn lotions can be used as skincare to treat the itching and burning symptoms. Heat rash usually goes away on its own within three or four days so long as you don't irritate the site further. Heat rash happens when the sweat glands get blocked. The trapped sweat irritates the skin and leads to small bumps.

During an isothermal process, 10 j of heat is removed from an ideal gas. What is the work done by the gas in the process?
Black_prince [1.1K]

The work done in the isothermal process is 10 joule.

We need to know about the isotherm process to solve this problem. The isotherm process can be described as a process where the initial temperature system will be the same as the final temperature. Hence, the internal energy change will be zero.

ΔU = 0

Hence,

ΔU = Q - W

0 = Q - W

Q = W

It means that the heat transferred is the same as the work done.

From the question above, we know that the heat transferred is 10 joule. Thus, the work done in the isothermal process is 10 joule.
