<span>At first when the car is at the datum point where is no elevation, the kinetic energy increases while the potential energy is zero. As it travel the path and goes upward the kinetic enrgy decreases while the potential energy increases. When it goes down again the kinetic enrgy increases again while the potential energy decreases </span>

How are balanced &amp; unbalanced forces related to net force?
Levart [38]

Answer:

An unbalanced force (net force) acting on an object changes its speed and/or direction of motion. ... A net force = unbalanced force. If however, the forces are balanced (in equilibrium) and there is no net force, the object will not accelerate and the velocity will remain constant.

An 85 kg man and his 35 kg daughter are sitting on opposite ends of a 3.00 m see-saw. The see-saw is anchored in the center. If
wolverine [178]

Answer:

0.54m

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

length of seesaw= 3m

mass of man m1= 85kg

weight = mg

W1= 85*10= 850N

mass of daughter m2= 35kg

W2= 35*10= 350N

distance from the center= (1.5-0.2)= 1.3m

Step two:

we know that the sum of clockwise moment equals the anticlockwise moment

let the distance the must sit to balance the system be x

taking moment about the center of the system

350*1.3=850*x

455=850x

divide both sides by  850

x=455/850

x=0.54

Hence the man must sit 0.54m from the right to balance the system

What is the impulse of a 3kg object accelerating from rest to 12m/s?
ale4655 [162]
To find the impulse you multiply the mass by the change in velocity (impulse=mass×Δvelocity). So in this case, 3 kg × 12 m/s ("12" because the object went from zero m/s to 12 m/s).

The answer is 36 kg m/s

Racing greyhounds are capable of rounding corners at very high speeds. A typical greyhound track has turns that are 45 m diamete
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

In m/s^2:

a=11.3778 m/s^2

In units of g:

a=1.161 g

Explanation:

Since the racing greyhounds are capable of rounding corners at very high speed so we are going use the following formula of acceleration for circular paths.

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

where:

v is the speed

r is the radius

Now,

a=\frac{16^2}{45/2}\\ a=11.3778 m/s^2

In g units:

a=\frac{11.3778\ g}{9.8}\\ a=1.161\ g
