<span>The correct answer is B. - It would take a ray of light 10.5 light years to travel from Earth to Epsilon Eridani, or vice-versa. Using our current technology it would take far longer than 21.0 years for a space ship from Earth to travel that far - I would have to guess many hundreds of years.</span>
Between the top of the first and the top of the second loop, the coaster has lost potential energy = mgh, where h = 22.2 - 15 = 7.2m
This energy would have converted to Kinetic. Write out an equation and the masses will cancel out. Does that hint help you to find the solution? If not, I will give you another hint.
Answer:
14.2 m
Explanation:
Using conservation of energy:
PE at top = KE at bottom
mgh = ½ mv²
h = v² / (2g)
h = (16.7 m/s)² / (2 × 9.8 m/s²)
h = 14.2 m
Using kinematics:
Given:
v₀ = 16.7 m/s
v = 0 m/s
a = -9.8 m/s²
Find: Δy
v² = v₀² + 2aΔy
(0 m/s)² = (16.7 m/s)² + 2 (-9.8 m/s²) Δy
Δy = 14.2 m
Answer:
<h2>0.2 m/s²</h2>
Explanation:
The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula
f is the force
m is the mass
From the question we have
We have the final answer as
<h3>0.2 m/s²</h3>
Hope this helps you
