Can someone please help me with potential and kinetic energy of a roller coaster portfolio assement?

If the ball didn't make it to the end of the journey, then it presumably ran out of kinetic energy, said energy, energy of movement, either being converted to potential energy, or to heat energy as the case may be.
Conservation of energy means that the total, often the kinetic plus the potential, is constant. One decreases and the other increases, and vice versa, so that they all add up to the same amount.
ball released from rest at top of a track will have zero initial velocity. ball at the top of the track will have a potential energy of mgh. ball's vertical height above bottom of track gives the potential energy.

The normal is a line perpendicular to the reflecting surface at the point of incidence.

ladessa [460]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The normal line is defined as the line which is perpendicular to the reflecting surface at the point where the incident ray meet with the reflecting surface.

The angle of incident is defined as the angle which is subtended by the incident ray with respect to the normal ray by consider the normal ray as the base line and angle is measured from the point where incident ray is incident on the reflecting surface of the mirror.

Similarly reflecting ray can be defined as the ray which is reflected after the incident of a ray and the angle subtended by the reflecting ray is measure with respect to normal ray by considering normal ray as a base line.

Therefore, the normal ray is the perpendicular line to the reflecting surface at the point of incidence.

During the deceleration of an ascending elevator, the normal force on the feet of a passenger is _____ her weight. During the de

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer: Smaller than ; larger than

Explanation:

When the elevator is moving in the upward direction, then the force acting on it is negative in nature because of

N= mg +ma, (g is gravity and a is acceleration)

here ma is negative so the N= mg-ma

Hence, it feels smaller than its original weight.

When the elevator is moving downward , then the force acting will be positive in nature

N= mg+ma,

here ma will be positive so it feels larger the original weight of passenger.
