Explanation:

At point B, the velocity speed of the train is as follows.

          \nu^{2}_{B} = \nu^{2}_{A} + 2a_{t} (s_{B} - s_{A})

                           = (30)^{2} + 2(-0.25(412 - 0))

                           = 26.34 m/s

Now, we will calculate the first derivative of the equation of train.

          y = 200 e^{\frac{x}{1000}}

      \frac{dy}{dx} = 0.2 e^{\frac{x}{1000}}

Now, second derivative of the train is calculated as follows.

         \frac{dy}{dx} = 0.2 e^{\frac{x}{1000}}      

       \frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}} = 0.2 (10^{-3}) e^{\frac{x}{1000}}    

Radius of curvature of the train is as follows.  

   \rho = \frac{[1 + (\frac{dy}{dx})^{2}]^{\frac{3}{2}}}{\frac{d^{2}y}{dx^{2}}}

               = \frac{[1 + 0.2e^{\frac{400}{1000}}^{2}]^{\frac{3}{2}}}{0.2(10^{-3})e^{\frac{400}{1000}}}

              = 3808.96 m

Now, we will calculate the normal component of the train as follows.

            a_{n} = \frac{\nu^{2}_{B}}{\rho}

                        = \frac{(26.34)^{2}}{3808.96}

                        = 0.1822 m/s^{2}

The magnitude of acceleration of train is calculated as follows.

            a = \sqrt{(a_{t})^{2} + (a_{n})^{2}}

               = \sqrt{(-0.25)^{2} + (0.1822)^{2}}

              = 0.309 m/s^{2}

Thus, we can conclude that magnitude of the acceleration of the train when it reaches point B, where sAB = 412 m is 0.309 m/s^{2}.

A smith needs to melt 0.0500 kg of gold at 21.0°C. How much heat must be added? (Remember, she has to heat it to the melting poi
baherus [9]

Answer:

9704.6 J

Explanation:

Total Thermal Energy

= Energy required to bring gold to melting point + Energy required to change the state of gold from solid to liquid

= mcT + <em>m</em><em>l</em><em>f</em><em> </em><em> </em>[bolded is energy used to bring gold to melting point, <em>i</em><em>t</em><em>a</em><em>l</em><em>i</em><em>c</em><em>i</em><em>s</em><em>e</em><em>d</em><em> </em><em>i</em><em>s</em><em> </em><em>s</em><em>t</em><em>a</em><em>t</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>c</em><em>h</em><em>a</em><em>n</em><em>g</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>o</em><em>f</em><em> </em><em>g</em><em>o</em><em>l</em><em>d</em><em> </em><em>f</em><em>r</em><em>o</em><em>m</em><em> </em><em>s</em><em>o</em><em>l</em><em>d</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>o</em><em> </em><em>l</em><em>i</em><em>q</em><em>u</em><em>i</em><em>d</em><em>]</em>

How do the Sun, Earth, and Moon systems interact
Nataly [62]

The sun is the mother star of the solar system, which only emits light to half of the planet, while the other part is always dark.

The sun emits light towards the earth, which dominates all life on earth. The movements of the Moon around the Earth and of the Earth around the Sun are complex. Movements of rotation around their own axes are superimposed on movements of orbital translation. The Earth and the Moon rotate around their own axes: This is rotation.

6. A 50 N block is raised 2 m. If the net work done on the block is 50 J, what is the applied force on the block?
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

F = 75[J]

Explanation:

We know that work is defined as the product of force by distance.

In this way we have two forces, the weight of the block down, and the force that bring about the block to rise.

W = -(F_{weight*d})+(F_{upward}*d)

where:

W = work = 50 [J]

d = distance = 2 [m]

Fweight = 50 [N]

Fupward [N]

Now replacing:

50=-(50*2)+(F_{upward}*2)\\50+100=F_{upward}*2\\F_{upward}=150/2\\F_{upward}=75[J]

a 252,000j of heat energy is required to heat 2kg water. if (CH2O=42000j/kgk.what is change in temperature ?​
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

theres an decrease in temperature because 252,000 is more than 42,000. so its colder and not as hot as 252,000.
