You are driving at 40 miles per hour and you speed up to 60 miles per hour over the course of 20 miles. How long were

At which of the following points does a roller coaster have the most potential energy? As it is going down a hill. At the top of

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

At the top of the hill.

Explanation:

As the roller coaster goes up the hill, kinetic energy (K.E) decreases, gravitational potential energy (G.P.E) increases .

As it reach the top of the hill, K.E becomes zero and G.P.E reaches maximum .

As it goes down the hill, K.E starts to increase and G.P.E decrease .

At the bottom of the hill, K.E reaches maximum and G.P.E becomes zero .

Answer: The force constant k is 10600 kg/s^2

Step by step:

Use the law of energy conservation. When the elevator hits the spring, it has a certain kinetic and a potential energy. When the elevator reaches the point of still stand the kinetic and potential energies have been transformed to work performed by the elevator in the form of friction (brake clamp) and loading the spring.

Let us define the vertical height axis as having two points: h=2m at the point of elevator hitting the spring, and h=0m at the point of stopping.

The total energy at the point h=2m is:

$E_{tot}=E_{kin}+E_{pot}\\E_{tot}= \frac{1}{2}mv^2+mg\Delta h = \frac{1}{2}2000 kg 4^2\frac{m^2}{s^2}+2000kg\, 9.8\frac{m}{s^2}2m=55200\,kg\frac{m^2}{s^2}$

The total energy at the point h=0m is:

$E_{tot}=E_{kin}+E_{pot}+Work=0+0+ Work\\E_{tot} =F_{friction}\Delta h+\frac{1}{2}k (\Delta h)^2=17000N\cdot 2m+\frac{1}{2}k\cdot 2^2 m^2$

The two Energy values are to be equal (by law of energy conservation), which allows us to determine the only unknown, namely the force constant k:

$17000N\cdot 2m+\frac{1}{2}k\cdot 2^2 m^2 = 55200 \,kg\frac{m^2}{s^2}\\k = \frac{55200-34000}{2}\,\frac{kg}{s^2}=10600\frac{kg}{s^2}$

The dark bands on the wall are from ______________ interference. and i will give brainlyest

Fittoniya [83]

Light can be seen as an electromagnetic wave.
What happens when two waves, with the same frequency, superpose is called interference.

If at a certain point two waves arrive both with a crest, we have constructive interference and the amplitudes sum up, reaching the maximum value, resulting in bright spots.

If at a certain point one of the waves arrives with a crest and the other wave arrives with a trough, we have destructive interference, and the two amplitudes cancel out, resulting in dark spots.

Therefore, the dark bands on the wall are from destructive interference.

What can the magnetic field be used for

deff fn [24]

Answer:

the magnetic field can be used to make electricity

Explanation:

Moving a magnet around a coil of wire, or moving a coil of wire around a magnet, pushes the electrons in the wire and creates an electrical current. Electricity generators essentially convert kinetic energy (the energy of motion) into electrical energy
