Answer:

At the top of the hill.

Explanation:

As the roller coaster goes up the hill, kinetic energy (K.E) decreases, gravitational potential energy (G.P.E) increases .

As it reach the top of the hill, K.E becomes zero and G.P.E reaches <em>m</em><em>a</em><em>x</em><em>i</em><em>m</em><em>u</em><em>m</em> .

As it goes down the hill, K.E starts to increase and G.P.E decrease .

At the bottom of the hill, K.E reaches <em>maximum</em> and G.P.E becomes zero .

(Correct me it I am wrong)

An electron is confined to a one dimensional region, bounded by an infinite potential. If the energy of the electron in its firs
OLga [1]

Answer:

The energy in its ground state is 10 meV.

Explanation:

It is given that,

The energy of the electron in its first excited state is 40 meV.

Energy of the electron in any state is given by :

E=\dfrac{n^2\pi^2h^2}{8mL^2}

For ground state, n = 1

E_1=\dfrac{\pi^2h^2}{8mL^2}.............(1)

For first excited state, n = 2

40=\dfrac{2^2\pi^2h^2}{8mL^2}.............(2)

Dividing equation (1) and (2), we get :

\dfrac{E_1}{40}=\dfrac{1}{4}

E_1=10\ meV

So, the energy in its ground state is 10 meV. Hence, this is the required solution.

Why does salt dissolve in water act as an antifreeze?
aalyn [17]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

An antifreeze is a substance which when added to a liquid reduces the freezing point of the liquid. Hence the solution can only freeze at a lower temperature compared to the solvent. Examples of antifreeze includes salt and propylene glycol. Antifreeze are used in low temperature environments to prevent water from freezing quicky. Hence the answer is A.
