Answer:

5.38 m/s

Explanation:

Given (in the x direction):

Δx = 2.45 m

v₀ = v cos 42.5°

a = 0 m/s²

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

(2.45 m) = (v cos 42.5°) t + ½ (0 m/s²) t²

2.45 = (v cos 42.5°) t

t = 3.32 / v

Given (in the y direction):

Δy = 0.373 m

v₀ = v sin 42.5°

a = -9.8 m/s²

Δx = v₀ t + ½ at²

(0.373 m) = (v sin 42.5°) t + ½ (-9.81 m/s²) t²

0.373 = (v sin 42.5°) t − 4.905 t²

0.373 = (v sin 42.5°) (3.32 / v) − 4.905 (3.32 / v)²

0.373 = 2.25 − 54.2 / v²

v = 5.38

When a roller coaster gets to the bottom of a descent, describe the energy transfers and changes to energy stores that happen if

Feliz [49]

Answer:

its B

Explanation:

It's B & A at the same time because A. a roller coaster uses brakes to slow down and stop. B is the most reasonable answer. Because all roller coasters go up and over a second time over the hill, but they also slow down. But go with B.

Why is acceleration of an object moving at a constant velocity always zero?

k0ka [10]

Answer:

If an object is moving with a constant velocity, then by definition it has zero acceleration. So there is no net force acting on the object. The total work done on the object is thus 0 (that's not to say that there isn't work done by individual forces on the object, but the sum is 0 ).

Explanation:

In the middle, when the object was changing position at a constant velocity, the acceleration was 0. This is because the object is no longer changing its velocity and is moving at a constant rate.

Describe what happens to chemical<br> bonds during a chemical reaction

dimulka [17.4K]

Explanation:

The bonds that keep molecules together break apart and form new bonds during chemical reactions, rearranging atoms into different substances. Each bond takes a distinct amount of energy to either break or form; the reaction does not take place without this energy, and the reactants stay as they were.

For this problem, we assume that we are on planet-i. the radius of this planet is r =4200 km, the gravitational acceleration at

Minchanka [31]

The expression commonly used for potential gravitational energy is just simplification. It is actually just the first term in Taylor expansion of the real expression.
In general, the potential energy of gravitational field is defined as:
$U=-G \frac{mM}{r}$
Where G is universal gravitational constant, and r is the distance between the objects centers of mass. Negative sign represents the bound state.
Since we are not given the mass of the planet we have to calculate it.
$F_g=G\frac{mM}{r_p^2}\\ mg=G\frac{mM}{r_p^2}\\ g=G\frac{M}{r_p^2}$
This formula can be used for any planet. It gives you the gravitational acceleration on the planet's surface. We can use it to calculate the planet's mass:
$g=G\frac{M}{r_p^2}\\ M=\frac{gr_p^2}{G}=2.41\cdot 10^{24}kg$
Now we can calculate the potential energy of that cannonball when it reaches its maximum height.
$U=-G \frac{mM}{r}\\ U=-G \frac{mM}{r_p+h}$
When we plug in the numbers we get:
$U=-4.99\cdot 10^{10} J$
The potential energy has to be equal to the kinetic energy.
$E_k=4.99\cdot 10^{10} J$
