A roller coaster cart of mass m = 223 kg starts stationary at point A, where h1 = 26.8 m and a while later is at B, were h2 = 14

.7 m. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . What is the speed of the cart at B, ignoring the effect of friction?

Answer:

vB = 15.4 m/s

Explanation:

Principle of conservation of energy:

Because there is no friction the mechanical energy is conserve

ΔE = 0

ΔE : mechanical energy change (J)

K : Kinetic energy (J)

U: Potential energy (J)

K = (1/2)mv²

U = m*g*h

Where :

m: mass (kg)

v : speed (m/s)

h : hight (m)

Ef - Ei = 0

(K+U)final - (K+U)initial =0

(K+U)final = (K+U)initial

((1/2)mv²+m*g*h)final = ((1/2)mv²+m*g*h)initial , We divided by m both sides of the equation:

((1/2)vB² + g*hB = (1/2 )vA²+ g*hA

(1/2) (vB)² + (9.8)*(14.7) =  0 + (9.8)(26.8 )

(1/2) (vB)² = (9.8)(26.8 ) - (9.8)*(14.7)

(vB)² = (2)(9.8)(26.8 - 14.7)

(vB)² = 237.16

v_{B} = \sqrt{237.16}

vB = 15.4 m/s : speed of the cart at B

A small piece of solid matter traveling through space is called a __________. When it collides with the atmosphere it is called
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Meteoroid , meteor and meteorite

Explanation:

A meteoroid is a small rocky or metallic body travelling through space.  Most are fragments from comets or asteroids

The visible streak of light from space debris is the result of heat as it enters a planet's atmosphere, and the trail of glowing particles that it sheds in its wake is called a meteor, or colloquially a "shooting star" or "falling star". A series of many meteors appearing seconds or minutes apart, and appearing to originate from the same fixed point in the sky, is called a meteor shower. Incoming objects larger than several meters (asteroids or comets) can explode in the air. If a meteoroid, comet or asteroid or a piece thereof withstands ablation from its atmospheric entry and impacts with the ground, then it is called a meteorite.

How to find a planet’s gravitational field strength using its radius?
grin007 [14]

The gravitational field strength is approximately equal to 10 N.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Gravitational field strength is the measure of gravitational force acting on any object placed on the surface of the planet. Generally, the mass of the object is considered as 1 kg.

So the gravitational field strength will be equal to the gravitational force acting on the object.

The formula for gravitational field strength is

g = \frac{F}{m}

Here g is the gravitational field strength, m is the mass of the object placed on the surface and F is the gravitational force acting on the object.

Since, the mass of any object placed on the surface of earth will be negligible compared to the mass of Earth, so the mass of the object is considered as 1 kg.

Then the g = F

And F =\frac{GMm}{r^{2} }

Here G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of Earth and m is the mass of the object placed on the surface, while r is the radius of the Earth.

g = F = \frac{6 \times 10^{24} \times 6.67 \times 10^{-11}  \times 1}{(6.6 \times 10^{6}) ^{2} }

g = 0.977 \times 10^1= 9.77\ N

So, the gravitational field strength is approximately equal to 10 N.

An 50kg car travels at 2m/s. What is the car's Kinetic energy? <br> 100J<br> 200J<br> 50J
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The answer is 100J.

Explanation:

In classical mechanics, kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared. In this question, the mass is equals to 50kg and the velocity is 2m/s

Now,

25kg×4m/s^2 = 100kgm/s^2 or 100J
