You are testing a new amusement park roller coaster with an empty car with a mass 120 kg. One part of the track is a vertical lo

op with radius 12.0 m. At the bottom of the loop(part A) the car has a speed 25.0 m/s and at the top of the loop (point B) has a speed of 8.0 m/s. As the car rolls from point A to point B, how much work is done by friction.

Answer:

- 5436 J

Explanation:

mass of car, m = 120 kg

radius of loop, r = 12 m

velocity at the bottom (A) = Va = 25 m/s

Velocity at the top(B) = Vb = 8 m/s

Vertical distance from A to B = diameter of loop, h = 2 x 12 = 24 m

by use of Work energy theorem

Work done by all the forces = change in kinetic energy of the body

Work done by the force + Work done by the friction = Kinetic energy at B - kinetic energy at A

- m x g x h + Work done by friction = 0.5 x 120 x (Vb^2 - Va^2)

- 120 x 9.8 x 24 + Work done by friction = 60 x (64 - 625)

- 28224 + Work done by friction = - 33660

Work done by friction = -33660 + 28224 = - 5436 J

Why are images reflected from a rough surface not as clear as those reflected from a smooth
ioda

Answer:

Just as images are reflected from the surface of a mirror, light reflected from a smooth water surface also produced a clear image. ... Consequently, the outgoing rays are reflected at many different angles and the image is disrupted. Reflection from such a rough surface is called diffuse reflection and appears matte.

To initiate a nuclear reaction, an experimental nuclear physicist wants to shoot a proton into a 5.50-fm-diameter 12C nucleus. T
Fantom [35]

Answer:

V_1= 3.4*10^7m/s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

Nucleus diameter d=5.50-fm

a 12C nucleus

Required kinetic energy K=2.30 MeV

Generally initial speed of proton must be determined,applying the law of conservation of energy we have

            K_2 +U_2=K_1+U_1

where

K_1 =initial kinetic energy

K_2 =final kinetic energy

U_1 =initial electric potential

U_2 =final electric potential

mathematically

   U_2 = \frac{Kq_pq_c}{r_2}

where

r_f=distance b/w charges

q_c=nucleus charge =6(1.6*10^-^1^9C)

K=constant

q_p=proton charge

Generally kinetic energy is know as

         K=\frac{1}{2}  mv^2

Therefore

         U_2 = \frac{Kq_pq_c}{r_2} + K_2=\frac{1}{2}  mv_1^2 +U_1

Generally equation for radius is d/2

Mathematically solving for radius of nucleus

         R=(\frac{5.50}{2}) (\frac{1*10^-^1^5m}{1fm})

         R=2.75*10^-^1^5m

Generally we can easily solving mathematically substitute into v_1

   q_p=6(1.6*10^-^1^9C)

   K_1=9.0*10^9 N-m^2/C^2

   U_1= 0

   R=2.75*10^-^1^5m

   K=2.30 MeV

   m= 1.67*10^-^2^7kg

   V_1= (\frac{2}{1.67*10^-^2^7kg})^1^/^2 (\frac{(9.0*10^9 N-m^2/C^2)*(6(1.6*10^-^1^9C)(1.6*10^-^1^9C)}{2.75*10^-^1^5m+2.30 MeV(\frac{1.6*10^-^1^3 J}{1 MeV}) }

    V_1= 3.4*10^7m/s

Therefore the proton must be fired out with a speed of V_1= 3.4*10^7m/s

If two cars A and B are moving with velocity 60 km/hr and 80 km/hr
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

VAB = 20km/hr

Explanation:

<u>Given the following data;</u>

Velocity of car A, VA = 60km/hr

Velocity of car B, VB = 80km/hr

To find the relative velocity of B w.r.t A, VAB;

Since the two cars are moving in the same direction, we have;

VAB = VB - VA

Substituting into the equation, we have;

VAB = 80 - 60

<em>VAB = 20km/hr</em>

Therefore, the relative velocity of car B with respect to car A is 20 kilometers per hour.

Explain: What happens to the velocity of a stream as the size of the sediment increases?
artcher [175]

Answer:

Also, as stream depth increases, the hydraulic radius increases thereby making the stream more free flowing. Both of these factors lead to an increase in stream velocity. The increased velocity and the increased cross-sectional area mean that discharge increases.
