Answer:

67,032 J

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, the kinetic energy of the boulder just before hitting the Roadrunner (at ground level) will be equal to the gravitational potential energy of the boulder at the top of the cliff, therefore:

K=U=mgh

where

m is the mass of the boulder

g is the acceleration of gravity

h is the height of the cliff

Here we have

m = 76 kg

g = 9.8 m/s^2

h = 90 m

Substituting,

U=(76)(9.8)(90)=67,032 J

A small car with mass of 0.800 kg travels at a constant speed
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

The equation of equilibrium at the top of the vertical circle is:

\Sigma F = - N - m\cdot g = - m \cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}

The speed experimented by the car is:

\frac{N}{m}+g=\frac{v^{2}}{R}

v = \sqrt{R\cdot (\frac{N}{m}+g) }

v = \sqrt{(5\,m)\cdot (\frac{6\,N}{0.8\,kg} +9.807\,\frac{kg}{m^{2}} )}

v\approx 9.302\,\frac{m}{s}

The equation of equilibrium at the bottom of the vertical circle is:

\Sigma F = N - m\cdot g = m \cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}

The normal force on the car when it is at the bottom of the track is:

N=m\cdot (\frac{v^{2}}{R}+g )

N = (0.8\,kg)\cdot \left(\frac{(9.302\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{5\,m}+ 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)

N=21.690\,N

Objects 1 and 2 attract each other with a gravitational force of 12 units. If the mass of Object 2 is tripled, then the new grav
olasank [31]

Explanation:

Fgravity = G*(mass1*mass2)/D².

G is the gravitational constant, which has the same value throughout our universe.

D is the distance between the objects.

so, if you triple one of the masses, what does that do to our equation ?

Fgravitynew = G*(3*mass1*mass2)/D²

due to the commutative property of multiplication

Fgravitynew = 3* G*(mass1*mass2)/D² = 3* Fgravity

so, the right answer is 3×12 = 36 units.

Of course steady state condition occurs in almost any system but time it will occurs varies among system. for this kind of system, conduction, steady state conduction occurs when the temperature change from one point to the point is already constant. steady state is not achieved immediately because the heat travels and material will not be heated at the same way at the starting point.

Can someone help pleaseeee
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

Motion with constant velocity of magnitude 1 m/s (uniform motion) for 4 seconds in a positive direction and then for 2 seconds uniform motion with constant velocity of magnitude 3 m/s in reverse direction .

Explanation:

The graph shows a constant velocity of 1 m/s for 4 seconds in the positive direction. After that, between 4 seconds and 6 seconds, the object reverses its motion with constant velocity of magnitude 3m/s.
