An electric motor moves a chain that pulls the roller coaster car 180 meters to the top of the first hill. The chain exerts a fo

rce of 2,524 newtons on the car. How much kinetic energy does the car gain from the work done on it? Use the formula Change in KE = F × d.

Answer:

Explanation:

The work done on an object is equal to its change in kinetic energy: Change in KE = F × d.

Plug the values for F and d into the formula and solve:

Change in KE = 2,524 × 180

= 454,320 joules

The roller coaster gains 454,320 joules of energy from the work done on it by the chain.

The energy added here is potential energy since it is moving upward 180 meters in a gravitational field.  This is then turned into KE when it rolls down.  2524N x 180m = 454,320J

Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

Gravity varies when the Earth rotates and its mass and density differ based on where you are on the planet. Knowing how gravity affects sea level thus aids geodesists in making more precise calculations. The mean sea level would be higher in parts of the earth where gravitational forces are heavier.

A rock has a specific gravity of 2.32 and a volume of 8.64 in3 how much does it weigh
lianna [129]

Answer: 3.21 N

Specific\hspace{1mm} gravity = \frac {Density\hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1mm}substance}{Density\hspace{1mm} of \hspace{1mm}water}

\Rightarrow Density \hspace{1mm}of\hspace{1mm}substance= 2.32\times 1000\hspace{1mm} kg/m^3 = 2320\hspace{1mm}kg/m^3\\ Mass =Density\times volume\\ \Rightarrow 2320 \hspace{1mm} kg/m^3\times 8.64 \hspace{1mm}in^3\times \frac {1.64\times10^{-5} m^3}{1\hspace{1mm}in^3}=0.328 kg

For weight, we will multiply by g=9.8 m/s^{-2}

weight= 0.328\times9.8=3.21\hspace{1mm}N

Hence, the rock would weigh 3.21 N.

If it takes 50.0 seconds to lift 10.0 Newtons of books to a height of 7.0
Ilya [14]
Work of the force = 10 N

Time required for the work = 50 sec

Height = 7 m

We are given with the value of work and time in the question.

Substitute the values in the formula of power and then you'll get the power required.

We know that,

w = Work

p = Power

t = Time

By the formula,

Given that,
Work (w) = 7 m = 70 Joules
Time (t) = 50 sec
Substituting their values,

p = 70/50

p = 1.4 watts

Therefore, the power required is 1.4 watts.

Hope it helps!

if heat energy is transferred from direct contact between a warm and a cold object it has been transferred by what ?
Katarina [22]

When heat energy is transferred from direct contact between a warm and a cold object , it is known as heat transfer by conduction.

In conduction, the heat transfer takes place within an object or between two objects in contact until the temperature becomes uniform. this kind of heat transfer continues until the temperature at two ends between which the heat transfer take place , becomes equal.  Heat transfer takes place from point at high temperature to point at lower temperature.

If three devices are plugged into one port on a switch and two devices are plugged into a different port, how many collision dom
Neporo4naja [7]
Collision domain is a portion in the network where there is a possibility of formation of packets. This occurs when two or more devices are able to send a packet to a single switch or port on the network that is shared, on the same time. It was noted that this collision domain reduces the efficiency of the network. 

For this item, the first packet is the whole switch with the three devices. Next one would be first of the three devices that is connected to the other port. Similarly, the third one would be the second of the three devices that is also connected to the switch. Therefore, the answer is 3.
