Where does the energy form to give the roller coaster potential energy at the top of the first hill?

When the winch is pulling it up it's first hill, it is losing it's energy to give it to the coaster.  It starts gaining energy because its height.  Then when it goes down the hill, gravity kicks in and the potential energy turns into kinetic energy.

Water, which we can treat as ideal and incompressible, flows at 12 m/s in a horizontal pipe with a pressure of 3.0 x 10^4 Pa. If
frez [133]

Answer:

p2 = 9.8×10^4 Pa

Explanation:

Total pressure is constant and PT = P = 1/2×ρ×v^2  

So p1 + 1/2×ρ×(v1)^2 = p2 + 1/2×ρ×(v2)^2

from continuity we have ρ×A1×v1 = ρ×A2×v2  

v2 = v1×A1/A2  

and  

r2 = 2×r1

then:

A2 = 4×A1  

so,

v2 = (v1)/4  

then:

p2 = p1 + 1/2×ρ×(v1)^2 - 1/2×ρ×(v2)^2 = p1 + 1/2×ρ×(v1)^2 - 1/2×ρ×(v1/4)^2  

p2 = 3.0×10^4 Pa + 1/2×(1000 kg/m^3)×(12m/s)^2 - 1/2×(1000kg/m^3)×(12^2/16)  

     = 9.75×10^4 Pa

    = 9.8×10^4 Pa

Therefore, the pressure in the wider section is 9.8×10^4 Pa

Why is a compound as common as water considered a "weird" chemical substance?
vodka [1.7K]
There are many many fascinating things about water that make it different than any other chemical substance. For example, it is the only known compound whose solid state is less dense than it's liquid state. It also has hydrogen bonding which gives water many "weird" properties. Many chemistry teachers revolve their entire class around the properties of water.

What is the average velocity of a car starting from 0 and travels 7 meters in 9 seconds?
Leni [432]

Your question has been heard loud and clear.

Averge velocity formula=  Total distance travelled / total time taken.

Total distance=7meters

Total time taken=9 seconds.

Average velocity = 7/9= 0.77 metres/second

Average velocity= 0.77m/s

Thank you.

Two protons move with uniform circular motion in the presence of uniform magnetic fields. Proton one moves twice as fast as prot
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

r₂ = 4 r

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use Newton's second law with the magnetic force

          F = q v x B

bold letters indicate vectors, the magnitude of this expression is

          F = q v B sin θ  

in this case we assume that the angle is 90º between the speed and the magnetic field.

If we use the rule of the right hand with the positive charge, the thumb in the direction of the speed, the fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field, the palm points in the direction of the force, which is towards the center of the circle, therefore the force is radial and the acceleration is centripetal

           a = v² / r

let's use Newton's second law

           F = ma

           q v B = m v² / r

           r = \frac{qB}{mv}

Let's apply this expression to our case.

Proton 1

             r = \frac{qB_1}{mv_1}

Proton 2

             r₂ = \frac{q \ B_2}{m \  v_2}

in the exercise indicate some relationships between the two protons

*    v₁ = 2 v₂

    v₂ = v₁ / 2

*   B₂ = 2B₁

we substitute

           r₂ = \frac{q \ 2B_1}{m \ \frac{v_1}{2} }

           r₂ = 4 \frac{qB_1}{mv_1}

           r₂ = 4 r

Which of the following are characteristics of good experimental design? Check all that apply.
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. Allows scientists to replicate experiments

2. Tests only one variable at a time

3. Plans how to record data so they can be published

Explanation:

A scientific experiment is performed to test the hypothesis which represents the limited explanation of the phenomenon.

The experiment is designed in a way that it test one variable at a time like the growth of plants. The experiment must be designed in a way that it can be replicated to reduce the error and repeated by other scientific persons to support the experiment. The design includes the plan for recording the results as it is one of the steps of the scientific method.

Thus, the selected options are the correct answer.

Controlled experiment is the type of experiment that involves changing only one variable at a time. Controlled experiment is subtly defined as an experiment which holds everything constant except one particular variable. This type of experiment allows only one variable to ever change at a given time
