Answer: The answer is A.

Explanation:

Suppose you are in an elevator. As the elevator starts upward, its speed will increase. During this time when the elevator is moving upward with increasing speed, your weight will be greater than your normal weight at rest.

A fully loaded cart with a mass of 2200 kg starts from the top of a 12-meter hill on a roller coaster.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

A. potential energy is 258720 Joule

Explanation:

A.Gravitational potential energy is: PE = m × g × h

velocity =  15.33 m/s when the car reaches the bottom of the hill.

where, m = mass

            g = acceleration due to gravity

            h = height from the bottom of hill.

The potential energy is : m×g×h

                                     =(2200×9.8×12)

                                     =258720 Joule

B. at the bottom of the hill, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy so PE at top = KE at bottom

                    kinetic energy= \frac{1}{2}(m*v^{2})

where v = velocity

          m= mass

therefore,               v=\sqrt\frac{2*K.E}{m} {}

                         or,  v=\sqrt{\frac{2*258720}{2200} }

                         or,   v=15.33 m/s

How can you tell if something has a lot of kinetic energy? How can you tell if something only has a little bit of kinetic energy
dezoksy [38]

Based on the equation KE = 1/2(m)(v^2), Kinetic Energy can be measured based on velocity. If an object has a large velocity, it have a larger kinetic energy than if the velocity is small.

William WangHomework #33 Regents Review (3)0989Assignment Mode : Open (Time On Task) 9 of 25 ListenDuring a collision, an 84-kil
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

1.7\cdot 10^3 N

Explanation:

The impulse theorem states that the product between the force and the time interval of the collision is equal to the change in momentum:

F \Delta t = m \Delta v

where

F is the force

\Delta t is the time interval

m is the mass

\Delta v is the change in velocity

Here we have

m = 84 kg

\Delta t = 1.2 s

\Delta v = 24 m/s

So we can solve the equation to find the force:

F= \frac{m \Delta v}{\Delta t }=\frac{(84 kg)(24 m/s)}{1.2 s}=1680 N \sim 1.7\cdot 10^3 N

What force is acting on a 2 kg apple falling on the Earth (g=10)
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

An apple in free fall accelerates toward the Earth with a free fall acceleration, g. The force of the apple on the Earth also causes the Earth to accelerate toward the falling apple. By Newton's Third Law, the force of the Earth on the apple is exactly equal and opposite to the force of the apple on the Earth. By Newton,s Second law, the force of the Earth on the apple is equal to the mass of the apple times g , the accelerations due to gravity. And, the force of the the apple on the Earth is equal to the mass of the Earth times the acceleration of the Earth toward the apple. In conclusion, the magnitude of the forces are equal, or

F ( apple on the Earth) = F( the Earth on the apple) or

M( mass of the earth) x a( the acceleration of the earth toward the apple) = m(mass of the apple) x g( the acceleration of the apple toward the Earth) or

a = (m/M) g
