A roller-coaster car has a mass of 1040 kg when fully loaded with passengers. As the car passes over the top of a circular hill

of radius 24 m, its speed is not changing. (a) At the top of the hill, what is the normal force (using the negative sign for the downward direction) FN on the car from the track if the car's speed is v?

Answer:

a.6373.5 N

b.-3837.6 N

Explanation:

Mass of roller coaster=m=1040 kg

Radius=r=24 ,

a.v=9.4m/s

Normal force=F_N

According to question

mg-F_N=\frac{mv^2}{r}

Where g=9.81 m/s^2

Substitute the values

1040\times 9.81-F_N=\frac{1040\times (9.4)^2}{24}

10202.4-F_N=3828.9

F_N=10202.4-3828.9=6373.5 N

b.v=18m/s

g=9.81 m/s^2

1040\times 9.81-F_N=\frac{1040\times (18)^2}{24}

10202.4-F_N=14040

F_N=10202.4-14040=-3837.6 N

Arrange the steps in order to explain how a tornado forms.
Sergio [31]

Answer

The steps in order to explain how a tornado forms are;

1. An extreme difference in wind speed at two elevations causes the wind shear

2. The difference in wind speed causes a column of air to rotate horizontally

3. A strong updraft connects the rotating air with clouds above

4. The column of air stretches to form a tornado

Explanation

The typical steps of tornado formation follow the below steps;

• Occurrence of a large thunderstorm which happens in the cumulonimbus clouds

• There is a change in wind direction and speed at higher attitudes that makes the air to swirl horizontally

• Air rising from the ground pushes up on the swirling air and tips over it

• The swirling air funnel starts to suck up more warm air from the ground

• The funnel enlarges and stretches towards the ground

• The funnel touches the ground level to form a tornado

A huge block of stone has a mass of 650kg and gains 70000j of gpe. how high has it been raised? (g = 10m/s2 )
Anna35 [415]
The formula for calculating GPE is

GPE = m x h x g

Where m is mass, h is height raised and g is gravity.

To solve the problem we just have to substitute the values we are given

70,000J = 650 x 10 x y

70,000J = 6500 x y

70,000 / 6500 = y

10.769 = y

So, the block of stone has been raised approximately 10.769 metres.

How much heat is released when 12.0 grams of helium gas condense at 2.17 K? The latent heat of vaporization of helium is 21 J/g.
uranmaximum [27]
To determine the heat released by the process of condensation, we simply multiply the amount of the gas that condensed to the latent heat of vaporization. We do as follows:

Heat released = 21 J/g (12.0 g ) = 252 J of heat released

Emmett is lifting a box vertically. Which forces are necessary for calculating the total force?
GrogVix [38]

When Emmett is lifting a box vertically, the forces that must be added to calculate the total force are: the gravitational force, tension force(the force exerted by Emmett to the box and the force exerted by the box to Emmett), and air resistance force.
