Given: Mass m = 5.00 Kg;    Height h = 12 m;    Time t = 15 s

Required: Power P = ?

Formula: P = Fd/t  = mgh/t

               P = (5.0 Kg)(9.8 m/s²)(12 m)/15 s

               P = 39.2 Kg.m²/s²  or
 
               P = 39.2 J

The normal force equals the magnitude of the gravitational force as a roller coaster car crosses the top of a 58-m-diameter loop
dedylja [7]

Answer:

16.87 m/s

Explanation:

To find the speed of the car at the top, when the normal force is equal the gravitational force, we just need to equate both forces:

N = P

m*a_c = mg

a_c is the centripetal acceleration in the loop:

a_c = v^2/r

So we have that:

mv^2/r = mg

v^2/r = g

v^2 = gr

v = \sqrt{gr}

So, using the gravity = 9.81 m/s^2 and the radius = 29 meters, we have:

v = \sqrt{9.81 * 29}

v = \sqrt{284.49} = 16.87\ m/s

The speed of the car is 16.87 m/s at the top.

A horizontal spring with spring constant 750 N/m is attached to a wall. An athlete presses against the free end of the spring, c
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

37.5 N Hard

Explanation:

Hook's law: The force applied to an elastic material is directly proportional to the extension provided the elastic limit of the material is not exceeded.

Using the expression for hook's law,

F = ke.............. Equation 1

F = Force of the athlete, k = force constant of the spring, e = extension/compression of the spring.

Given: k = 750 N/m, e = 5.0 cm = 0.05 m

Substitute into equation 1

F = 750(0.05)

F = 37.5 N

Hence the athlete is pushing 37.5 N hard

For the potential , determine the number of bound states?A)6 b)4 c) 3 d) 1
s2008m [1.1K]

Do you see that blank, open space after the word "potential ..." ?

There's supposed to be a number there that actually tells us the value of the potential.  Without that number ... and a lot more description of the whole scenario here ... there's no possible answer to the question.

Josh is much bigger than taylor. after the push, which of the two is moving faster?
egoroff_w [7]
If E = 1/2 * m * v^2
v = (2E/m)^1/2
so the larger the mass, the higher the velocity hence taylor is moving faster
