When you are on a roller coaster, you are constantly transforming from Potential to Kinetic energy and back. Explain how these e
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

The two types of energy possessed by the roller coaster are:

- Potential energy: it is the energy possessed by the roller coaster due to its position. It is calculated as

PE=mgh

where

m is the mass of the roller coaster

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the roller coaster relative to the ground

- KInetic energy: it is the energy possessed by the roller coaster due to its motion. It is calculated as

KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where

v is the speed of the roller coaster

Moreover, according to the law of conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy of the roller coaster (the sum of potential+kinetic energy) is constant during the motion:

E=PE+KE=const.

This implies that:

- When PE increases (because h increases), KE decreases (because v decreases)

- When PE decreases (because h decreases), KE increases (because v increases)

Now we can apply these conclusions to the motion of the roller coaster:

- When it moves from A to B, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, so PE decreases and KE increases

- When it moves from B to C, kinetic energy is converted into potential energy, so PE increases and KE decreases

- When it moves from C to D, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, so PE decreases and KE increases

- When it moves from D to E,  kinetic energy is converted into potential energy, so PE increases and KE decreases

Your cousin Jannik skis down a blue square ski slope, with an initial speed of 3.6 m/s. He travels 15 m down the mountain side b
fenix001 [56]

Answer: The loss of energy due to friction is equal to 1,253 J.

Explanation:

The problem tells us that the skier has an initial speed of 3.6 m/s, which means that his initial kinetic energy is as follows:

K₁ = 1/2 m v₁² = 1/2 . 58.0 Kg. (3.6)² (m/s)² =  376 J

After coming to a  flat landing, his final speed is 7.8 m/s, so the final kinetic energy is as follows:

K₂ = 1/2 m v₂² = 1/2. 58.0 Kg. (7.8)² (m/s)² = 1,764 J

Now, when skying down the slope the increase in kinetic energy only can come from another type of energy, in this case, gravitational potential energy.

If we take the ground flat level as a Zero reference, the initial gravitational potential energy, can be written as follows, by definition:

U₁ = m.g. h (1)

Now, we don't know the value of the height h, but we know that the incline has a 18º angle above the horizontal, and that the distance travelled along the incline is 15 m.

By definition, the sinus of an angle, is equal to the proportion between the height and the hypotenuse , so we can write the following equation:

sin 18º = h / 15 m ⇒ h = 15 m. sin 18º = 4.6 m

Replacing in (1), we get:

U₁ = 58.0 Kg. 9.8 m/s². 4.6 m = 2,641 J

So, we can get the total initial mechanical energy, as follows:

E₁ = K₁ + U₁ = 376 J + 2,641 J = 3,017 J

After arriving to the flat zone, all potential energy has become in kinetic energy, even though not completely, due to the effect of friction.

This remaining kinetic energy can be written as follows:

E₂ = K₂ = 1,764 J

The difference E₂-E₁, is the loss of energy due to friction forces acting during the travel along the 15 m path, and is as follows:

ΔE= E₂ - E₁ = 1,764 J - 3,017 J = -1,253 J
