<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: 8.62m

<h2>Why?</h2>

There are involved two types of mechanical energy: kinetic energy and potential energy, in two different moments.

<h2>First moment:</h2>

Before the ball is thrown, where the potential energy is 0.

<h2>Second moment: </h2>

After the ball is thrown, at its maximum height, the Kinetic Energy turns to 0 (since at maximum height,the speed is equal to 0) and the PE turns to its max value.

Therefore,

E=PE+KE

Where:

PE=m.g.h

KE=\frac{1*m*v^{2}}{2}

<em>E</em> is the total energy

<em>PE</em> is the potential energy

<em>KE</em> is the kinetic energy

<em>m</em> is the mass of the object

<em>g</em> is the gravitational acceleration

<em>h </em>is the reached height of the object

<em>v</em> is the velocity of the object

Since the total energy is always constant, according to the Law of Conservation of Energy, we can write the following equation:

KE_{1}+PE_{1}=KE_{2}+PE_{2}

Remember, at the first moment the PE is equal to 0 since there is not height, and at the second moment, the KE is equal to 0 since the velocity at maximum height is 0.

\frac{1*m*v^{2}}{2}+m.g.(0)=\frac{1*m*0^{2}}{2}+m.g.h\\\frac{1*m*v_{1} ^{2}}{2}=m*g*h_{2}

So,

h_{2}=\frac{1*m*v_{1} ^{2}}{2*m*g}\\h_{2}=\frac{1*v_{1} ^{2}}{2g}=\frac{(\frac{13m}{s})^{2} }{2*\frac{9.8m}{s^{2}}}\\h_{2}=8.62m}

Hence,

The height at the second moment (maximum height) is 8.62m

Have a nice day!

A freight car moves along a friction less level railroad track at constant speed. The car is open on top. A large load of coal i
maxonik [38]

Answer:

The velocity of the freight car decreases.

Explanation:

This question is answered by the conservation of momentum principle.

When the freight car is moving at a certain speed, it has a constant momentum.

We will call this M1.

The equation for M1 will be:

M1 = Mass * Speed

Now when the coal is dumped into the freight car, the Mass increases.

Since conservation of momentum states that the momentum will remain the same. We have:

M1 = (Mass of freight + Mass of coal) * Speed

Since M1 is constant, if the mass increases, the speed had to decrease to keep the equation true.

Unlike a roller coaster, the seats in a Ferris wheel swivel so that the rider is always seated upright. An 80-ft-diameter Ferris
telo118 [61]

Answer:

a

   F_A  =425.42 \ N

b

  F_A_H  = 358.58 \ N

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The diameter of the Ferris wheel is  d  =  80 \ ft =  \frac{80}{3.281} =  24.383

    The  period of the Ferris wheel is  T  =  24 \ s

     The  mass of the passenger is  m_g  =  40 \ kg

The  apparent weight of the passenger at the lowest point is mathematically represented as

           F_A_L  =  F_c  + W

Where  F_c is the centripetal force on the passenger,  which is mathematically represented as

         F_c  =m *  r *  w^2

Where w is the angular velocity which is mathematically represented as

         w =  \frac{2* \pi   }{T}

substituting values

         w =  \frac{2* 3.142 }{24}

         w =  0.2618 \ rad/s

and  r  is the radius which is evaluated as r =  \frac{d}{2}

   substituting values

         r =  \frac{24.383}{2}

         r = 12.19 \ ft

So

          F_c  = 40 * 12.19* (0.2618)^2

          F_c  =  33.42 \ N

W is the weight which is mathematically represented as

           W =  40 * 9.8

           W =  392 \ N

So

         F_A    =  33.42 + 392

         F_A  =425.42 \ N

The  apparent weight of the passenger at the highest point is mathematically represented as

          F_A_H  =  W- F_c

substituting values

         F_A_H  = 392 -  33.42

         F_A_H  = 358.58 \ N
