At the end of the Shock Wave roller coaster ride, the 6000-kg train of cars (includes passengers) is allowed from a speed of 20

m/s to a speed of 5 m/s over a distance of 20 meters. Determine the braking force required to slow the train of cars by this amount.

Answer:

56250 N

Explanation:

mass, m = 6000 kg

initial speed, u = 20 m/s

final speed, v = 5 m/s

distance, s = 20 m

Use third equation of motion

v^{2}=u^{2}+2as

5 x 5 = 20 x 20 + 2 a x 20

25 = 400 + 40 a

a = - 9.375 m/s^2

Braking force, F = mass x acceleration

F = 6000 x 9.375

F = 56250 N

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Scientists measure the time between the arrival of an earthquake's __P____ and ___S____ waves to help determine the distance between the recording seismograph and the earthquake epicenter.

Explanation:

P- (compressional) and S- (shear) waves produced in earthquakes travel at different speeds. P waves are faster than S waves and hence will be detected first by a seismograph after an earthquake. The further away a seismograph is from the epicenter of an earthquake,  the longer the time difference between the two (2) waves will be.

Using several, at least 3, seismographs located at different geoghraphical locations and detecting earthquakes, geologists can extrapolate the epicenter of an earthquake using the time differences in arrivals of the two waves in each of the seismographs, using the mathematics of triangulation.
