The correct answer to the question is : 4000 N

EXPLANATION:

As per the question, the mass of the roller coaster is given as m = 2000 kg

The acceleration of the roller coaster is given as a = 2m/s2

We are asked to calculate the net force acting on the roller coaster.

From Newton's second laws of motion,we know that net external force acting on a particle is equal to the product of mass with acceleration of the particle.

Mathematically it is written as-

F = ma

Hence,net force acting on the roller coaster is calculated as-

F = 2000Kg×2m/s2

= 4000 N.

Here, Newton (N) is the unit of force.

Hence,net force acting on the roller coaster is 4000 N.

Consider the following True/False statements:

Answer:

6) False

7) True

8) False

9) False

10) False

11) True

12) True

13) True

14) True

Explanation:

The spacing between two energy levels in an atom shows the energy difference between them. Clearly, B has a greater value of ∆E compared to A. This implies that the wavelength emitted by B is greater than A while B will emit fewer, more energetic photons.

When atoms jump from lower to higher energy levels, photons are absorbed. The kinetic energy of the incident photon determines the frequency, wavelength and colour of light emitted by the atom.

The energy level to which an atom is excited is determined by the kinetic energy of the incident electron. As the voltage increases, the kinetic energy of the electron increases, the further the atom is from the source of free electrons, the greater the required kinetic energy of free electron. When electrons are excited to higher energy levels, they must return to ground state.

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

Static electricity : is a familiar electric phenomenon in which charged particles are transferred from one body to another

Ohm's law : states that the voltage or potential difference between two points is directly proportional to the current or electricity passing through the resistance
