A 440 kg roller coaster car is going 26 m/s when it reaches the lowest point on the track. If the car started from rest at the t

The only thing acting as the roller coaster gets to the bottom is gravity thus
acceleration is 9.81

so u use the formula
vf^2 = vi^2 + 2abetaD
thus
distance = vf^2 - vi^2 divided by 2a
so 26^2 - 0^2 divided by 2(9.81m/s)
equals 676 divided by 2(9.81m/s)
= 34.45463812m
then use the appropriate 3 sig digs
so 34.5m
hopes this helps

The membrane that surrounds a certain type of living cell has a surface area of 5.3 x 10-9 m2 and a thickness of 1.1 x 10-8 m. A
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

2.1\times 10^{-12} c

Explanation:

We are given that

Surface area of membrane=5.3\times 10^{-9} m^2

Thickness of membrane=1.1\times 10^{-8} m

Assume that membrane behave like a parallel plate capacitor.

Dielectric constant=5.9

Potential difference between surfaces=85.9 mV

We have to find the charge resides on the outer surface of membrane.

Capacitance between parallel plate capacitor is given by

C=\frac{k\epsilon_0 A}{d}

Substitute the values then we get

Capacitance between parallel plate capacitor=\frac{5.9\times 8.85\times 10^{-12}\times 5.3\times 10^{-9}}{1.1\times 10^{-8}}

C=0.25\times 10^{-12}F

V=85.9 mV=85.9\times 10^{-3}

Q=CV

Q=0.25\times 10^{-12}\times 85.9\times 10^{3}=2.1\times 10^{-12} c

Hence, the charge resides on the outer surface=2.1\times 10^{-12} c

Consider a current carrying a wire coming out of your computer screen towards you. Which statement below correctly describes the
Ugo [173]

Answer:

1. The magnetic field encircles the wire in a counterclockwise direction

Explanation:

When we have a current carrying wire perpendicular to the screen in which the current flows out of the screen then by the Maxwell's right-hand thumb rule we place the thumb of our right hand in the direction of the current and curl the remaining fingers around the wire, these curled fingers denote the direction of the magnetic field which is in the counter-clock wise direction.

Ever current carrying conductor produces a magnetic field around it.

Suppose two children push horizontally, but in exactly opposite directions, on a third child in a wagon. The first child exerts
Nata [24]

(a) The system of interest if the acceleration of the child in the wagon is to be calculated are the wagon and the children outside the wagon.

(b) The acceleration of the child-wagon system is 0.33 m/s².

(c) Acceleration of the child-wagon system is zero when the frictional force is 21 N.

<h3>Net force on the third child</h3>

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

∑F = ma

where;

  • ∑F is net force
  • m is mass of the third child
  • a is acceleration of the third child

∑F = 96 N - 75 N - 12 N = 9 N

Thus, the system of interest if the acceleration of the child in the wagon is to be calculated are;

  • the wagon
  • the children outside the wagon

         1st child      friction       wagon                2nd child

<h3>Acceleration of the  child and wagon system</h3>

a = ∑F/m

a = 9 N / 27 kg

a = 0.33 m/s²

<h3>When the frictional force is 21 N</h3>

∑F = 96 N - 75 N - 21 N = 0 N

a = ∑F/m

a = 0/27 kg

a = 0 m/s²

What happens in the core of a star that causes it to shine?? pls make it short
Oksi-84 [34.3K]
The procedure that makes stars sparkle is the same one that we have outfit for utilization as a weapon: atomic combination.

Stars begin as gigantic districts of gas, for the most part hydrogen. This gas will begin to contract, and it warms up. As it gets, its temperature rises. At the point when the warmth gets sufficiently high, it causes the individual hydrogen iotas to impact and consolidate into helium with the arrival of vitality. This is called fusion.
