The roller-coaster car shown in fig. 6-41 (h1 = 45 m, h2 = 16 m, h3 = 26 m), is dragged up to point 1 where it is released from

rest. assuming no friction, calculate the speed at points 2, 3, and 4.

There are many ways to solve this but I prefer to use the energy method. Calculate the potential energy using the point then from Potential Energy convert to Kinetic Energy at each points.

PE = KE

From the given points (h1 = 45, h2 = 16, h<span>3  </span>= 26)

Let’s use the formula: 

v2= sqrt[2*Gravity*h1]  where the gravity is equal to 9.81m/s2

v3= sqrt[2*Gravity*(h1 - h3 )] where the gravity is equal to 9.81m/s2

v4= sqrt[2*Gravity*(h1 – h2)] where the gravity is equal to 9.81m/s2

Solve for v2

v2= sqrt[2*Gravity*h1]      

    = √2*9.81m/s2*45m

v2= 29.71m/s

v3= sqrt[2*Gravity*(h1 - h3 )   

    =√2*9.81m/s2*(45-26)

    =√2*9.81m/s2*19 

v3=19.31m/s

v4= sqrt[2*Gravity*(h1 – h2)]        

    =√2*9.81m/s2*(45-16)

    =√2*9.81m/s2*(29)

v4=23.85m/s

Why doe cups break in the winter?
eimsori [14]

Answer: Glass may break at low temperatures, but this is because the contents freeze and their expansion cause the glass to crack (if the cap does not come off). ... Hot temperatures can cause the glass to break when the bottle is subject to excessive thermal variations. hope this helps can u give me brainliest

Estimate the final temperature of a mole of gas at 200.0 atm and 19.0°C as it is forced through a porous plug to a final pressur
Yanka [14]

Answer : The final temperature of gas is 266.12 K

Explanation :

According to the Joule-Thomson experiment, it states that when a gas is expanded adiabatically from higher pressure region to lower pressure region, the change in temperature with respect to change in pressure at constant enthalpy is known as Joule-Thomson coefficient.

The formula will be:

\mu_{J,T}=(\frac{dT}{dP})_H

or,

\mu_{J,T}=(\frac{dT}{dP})_H\approx \frac{\Delta T}{\Delta P}

As per question the formula will be:

\mu_{J,T}=\frac{T_2-T_1}{P_2-P_1}   .........(1)

where,

\mu_{J,T} = Joule-Thomson coefficient of the gas = 0.13K/atm

T_1 = initial temperature = 19.0^oC=273+19.0=292.0K

T_2 = final temperature = ?

P_1 = initial pressure = 200.0 atm

P_2 = final pressure = 0.95 atm

Now put all the given values in the above equation 1, we get:

0.13K/atm=\frac{T_2-292.0K}{(0.95-200.0)atm}

T_2=266.12K

Therefore, the final temperature of gas is 266.12 K

Could Mars be a suitable alternative to Earth as a second home for humans? Explain your answer.
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

After the Earth, Mars is the most habitable planet in our solar system due to several reasons: Its soil contains water to extract. It isn't too cold or too hot. ... Gravity on Mars is 38% that of our Earth's, which is believed by many to be sufficient for the human body to adapt to.
