If i punch my self and it will hurt am i weak or strong

Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

You're strong.

Explanation:

I've been thinking of this for quite a while, and I realized that your body has a certain limit to how much pain it can take. So, punching yourself extremely hard will cause pain, because that's your body's reaction to immense pressure being put on it. But, the fact that you punched yourself so hard that it hurts, shows that you are capable of applying so much pressure; therefore, you are strong.

a 230 kg roller coaster reaches the top of the steepest hill with a speed of 6.2 km/h. It then descends the hill, which is at an

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer: 81.619 kJ

Explanation:

Given

Mass of roller coaster is $m=230\ kg$

It reaches the steepest hill with speed of $u=6.2\ km/h\ or \ 1.72\ m/s$

Hill to bottom is 51 m long with inclination of $45^{\circ}$

Height of the hill is $h=51\sin 45^{\circ}=36.06\ m$

Conserving energy to get kinetic energy at bottom

Energy at top=Energy at bottom

$\Rightarrow K_t+U_t=K_b+U_b\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}mu^2+mgh=K_b+0\\\\\Rightarrow K_b=0.5\times 230\times 1.72^2+230\times 9.8\times 36.06\\\Rightarrow K_b=340.216+81,279.24\\\Rightarrow K_b=81,619.456\ J\\\Rightarrow K_b=81.619\ kJ$
