What 3 things can you learn about energy in a roller coaster?

Physics
1 answer:
Alika [10]3 years ago
4 0

<u>Answer:</u>

The following are the things we can learn about energy in roller coaster.

  • All roller coasters work using the principle of gravitational energy.
  • All roller coaster utilise the Potential energy.
  • Roller coasters convert the potential energy into kinetic energy.
  • Friction is reduced in roller coasters as it decreases the speed of roller  coaster.

Roller coasters do not have engines whereas Gravity pulls them and potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy providing its motion. Due to the friction and air resistance, the energy gets reduced as the ride proceeds.

mixer [17]

Solution :

When the spacecraft is at halfway point, the distance from the Earth as well as Mars are same. We have to account the masses of the planets. The gravitational force that is exerted by the Earth is greater because of its combined mass with the space probe.

The mass of Earth is greater than the mass of Mars. Therefore, the force of Earth is more than Mars.

Could You Take 2 Elements From The Periodic Table Of Elements, and possibly make one of other 116 elements that are on the table
LekaFEV [45]
That's what stars do all the time. 
For example, in the sun (and MOST other stars), deep down in the center
of the sun's core, two atoms of Hydrogen get squashed together so hard
that they blend into one atom of Helium AND release some energy. 
That's where the sun's energy all comes from.  It's called "nuclear fusion". 
It needs tremendous temperature and pressure to happen.  We know how
to do it, but we can't control it.  So far, the only thing we've ever been able
to use it for is Hydrogen bombs.   

There are 92 elements on the Periodic Table that are found in nature,
plus another 20 or so that have been made in the laboratory, but only
a few atoms of them.

Answer:

The time constant is 1.049.

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge q{t}= 0.65 q_{0}

We need to calculate the time constant

Using expression for charging in a RC circuit

q(t)=q_{0}[1-e^{-(\dfrac{t}{RC})}]

Where, \dfrac{t}{RC} = time constant

Put the value into the formula

0.65q_{0}=q_{0}[1-e^{-(\dfrac{t}{RC})}]

1-e^{-(\dfrac{t}{RC})}=0.65

e^{-(\dfrac{t}{RC})}=0.35

-\dfrac{t}{RC}=ln (0.35)

-\dfrac{t}{RC}=-1.049

\dfrac{t}{RC}=1.049

Hence, The time constant is 1.049.

Light is shone on a diffraction grating
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

    λ = 482.05 nm

Explanation:

The diffraction phenomenon and the diffraction grating is described by the expression

         d sin θ = m λ

where d is the distance between two consecutive slits, λ the wavelength and m an integer representing the order of diffraction

in this case they indicate the distance between slits, the angle and the order of diffraction

         λ = \frac{d sin \theta }{m}d sin θ / m

let's calculate

         λ = 1.00 10⁻⁶ sin 74.6 / 2

         λ = 4.82048 10⁻⁷ m

Let's reduce to nm

         λ = 4.82048 10⁻⁷ m (10⁹ nm / 1 m)

         λ = 482.05 nm
