Why does an object roll faster down a steeper hill than a not so steep hill.

Physics
1 answer:
Natasha2012 [34]3 years ago
3 0
 The answer is : <span>Gravity draws an object towards its strongest point. The main things holding you back are air resistance and friction. As a hill gets steeper, you are more in line with the center of gravity, so it overcomes friction and you move faster. Eventually when you are moving vertically there is no friction other than air resistance itself. At this time you will accelerate at 32 feet per second every second until you either hit something or reach terminal velocity which is around 120 mph. Air resistance (on the Earth at least) will not allow you to travel any faster. Hope this Helped! Good Luck! :)</span>

A stone is launched from the ground, at a 70° angle, with an initial velocity of 120 m/s.
zavuch27 [327]
<span>A) x = 41t
    The classic equation for distance is velocity multiplied by time. And unfortunately, all of your available options have the form of that equation. In fact, the only difference between any of the equations is what looks to be velocity. And in order to solve the problem initially, you need to divide the velocity vector into a vertical velocity vector and a horizontal velocity vector. And the horizontal velocity vector is simply the cosine of the angle multiplied by the total velocity. So H = 120*cos(70) = 120*0.34202 = 41.04242 So the horizontal velocity is about 41 m/s. Looking at the available options, only "A" even comes close.</span>

Two objects with the same mass move with the same speed but in opposite directions. Compare their kinetic energies.
ddd [48]

Answer:

A.  Kinetic energies are equal.

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the bodies will be equal since the mass and speed are the same.

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body.

Mathematically;

           K.E  = \frac{1}{2} m v²

m is the mass

v is the speed

 The kinetic energy is a scalar quantity with no regard for direction.

A 57 kg person in a rollercoaster moving through the bottom of a curved track of radius 42.7 m feels a normal force of 995 N. Ho
natita [175]

Answer:

Use Fc centripetal force as positive and W the weight as negative

N = m v^2 / R + m g

v^2 = (N - m g) R / m

v^2 = (995 - 57 * 9.8) 42.7 / 57 = 327 m^2/s^2

v = 18.1 m/s

Note: N - m g is the net force producing the centripetal force
