A roller coaster moves 200 ft horizontally, then rises 135 ft at an angle of 30.0° above the horizontal. Next, it travels 135 f

t at an angle of 40.0° below the horizontal. Use graphical techniques to find the roller coaster's displacement from its starting point at the end of this movement.

Answer:

171 ft

Explanation:

The distance to be calculated is AB

AB = AC + BC

AC;  Cos 60 = AC ÷ 135

AC = 135 cos 60 = 67.5 ft

BC; Cos 40 = BC ÷ 135

BC = 135 cos 40 = 103.416 ft

AB = 67.5 + 103.416 = 170.9159998210 ft

Distance between starting point to end point = 171 ft

bixtya [17]
The sample appears to have gone through 3 half-lives
1st half life: 1000 to 500 g
2nd half life: 500 to 250 g
3rd half life: 250 to 125 g
The duration of a half-life, therefore, can be inferred to be 66 ÷ (3) = 22 days. 

After a 4th half life, there will be 125÷2= 62.5 g. 
At this point, an additional 22 days will have passed, for a total of 88 days.

A force of 40 N is required to hold a spring that has been stretched from its natural length of 10 cm to a length of 15 cm. How
Sati [7]

0.36 J of work is done in stretching the spring from 15 cm to 18 cm.

To find the correct answer, we need to know about the work done to strech a string.

<h3>What is the work required to strech a string?</h3>
  • Mathematically, the work done to strech a string is given as 1/2 ×K×x².
  • K is the spring constant.
<h3>What will be the spring constant, if 40N force is required to hold a 10 cm to 15 cm streched spring?</h3>
  • The force experienced by a streched spring is given as Kx. x is the length of the spring streched from its natural length.
  • Then K = Force / x.
  • Here x = 15 - 10 = 5 cm = 0.05 m
  • K = 40/0.05 = 800N/m.
<h3>What will be the work required to strech that spring from 15 cm to 18 cm?</h3>
  • Work done = 1/2×k×x²
  • Here x= 18-15=3cm or 0.03 m
  • So, W= 1/2×800×0.03² = 0.36 J.

Thus, we can conclude that the work done is 0.36 J.
