The very first thing that you should do when a passenger on your boat falls overboard is to throw a PFD or also known as a Personal Flotation Device. This would include anything that can help the passenger to float. But this step would differ, only if the passenger is not wearing a lifevest.

Why does the total amount of energy before and after any energy transformations remain the same?
Georgia [21]
The amount of energy before and after any energy transformations remain the same because energy cannot be created or destroyed. From the law conservation of energy; any time energy is transferred between two objects, or converted from one form into another, no energy is created and none is destroyed. The total amount of energy involved in the process remains the same.

A car in an amusement park ride rolls without friction around a track (Fig. P7.42). The hB car starts from rest at point A at a
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

h>\dfrac{5}{2}R

Explanation:

Given that

Height = h

Radius = R

From energy conservation

KE_A+U_A=KE_B+U_B

At point B

The minimum speed to complete the   the circle

V_B=\sqrt{gR}\ m/s

So the kinetic energy at point B

KE_B=\dfrac{1}{2}mV^2

KE_B=\dfrac{1}{2}mgR

KE_A+U_A=KE_B+U_B

0+mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mgR+2mgR

Without falling off at the top (point B)

0+mgh>\dfrac{1}{2}mgR+2mgR

mg(h-2R)>\dfrac{1}{2}mgR

g(h-2R)>\dfrac{1}{2}gR

h>\dfrac{5}{2}R

4. A trolley of mass 2kg rests next to a trolley of mass 3 kg on a flat
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

a. The total momentum of the trolleys which are at rest before the separation is zero

b. The total momentum of the trolleys after separation is zero

c. The momentum of the 2 kg trolley after separation is 12 kg·m/s

d. The momentum of the 3 kg trolley is -12 kg·m/s

e. The velocity of the 3 kg trolley = -4 m/s

Explanation:

a. The total momentum of the trolleys which are at rest before the separation is zero

b. By the principle of the conservation of linear momentum, the total momentum of the trolleys after separation = The total momentum of the trolleys before separation = 0

c. The momentum of the 2 kg trolley after separation = Mass × Velocity = 2 kg × 6 m/s = 12 kg·m/s

d. Given that the total momentum of the trolleys after separation is zero, the momentum of the 3 kg trolley is equal and opposite to the momentum of the 2 kg trolley = -12 kg·m/s

e. The momentum of the 3 kg trolley = Mass of the 3 kg Trolley × Velocity of the 3 kg trolley

∴ The momentum of the 3 kg trolley = 3 kg × Velocity of the 3 kg trolley = -12 kg·m/s

The velocity of the 3 kg trolley = -12 kg·m/s/(3 kg) = -4 m/s

How do water and gravity work together to erode soil, sediment, and rock?
TiliK225 [7]

Gravity can cause water to move down and carry sediment and rocks along the bottom. if the water slows down, it drops the rocks and if it floods a field then the grass will also filter smaller particles out leaving fine sediment behind. In addition to it the fast flow of water can cause erosion, over time it can cause valleys as well.
