A 980 kg roller coaster cart is traveling along a track at 17 m/s before it rolls down a 30 m tall hill (Point A). What will be

MrRissso [65]

The kinetic energy halfway the hill is $2.86\cdot 10^5 J$

Explanation:

If there are no friction forces acting on the cart, we can apply the law of conservation of energy: the mechanical energy of the cart (which is the sum of potential energy + kinetic energy) must be conserved. So we can write:

$U_A +K_A = U_B + K_B$

where

$U_A=mgh_A$ is the initial potential energy, at point A, with

m = 980 kg (mass of the cart)

$g=9.8 m/s^2$ (acceleration of gravity)

$h_A = 30 m$ (height at point A)

$K_A=\frac{1}{2}mv_A^2$ is the initial kinetic energy, at point A , with

$v_A=17 m/s$ (velocity at point A)

$U_B=mgh_B$ is the final potential energy, at point B, where

$h_B = 15 m$ (height at point B)

$K_B=\frac{1}{2}mv_B^2$ is the final kinetic energy, at point B, where

$v_B$ is the velocity at point B

Here we are interested in finding $K_B$ , so by re-arranging the equation and substituting we find:

$K_B = U_A+K_B-U_B = mg(h_A-h_B)+\frac{1}{2}mv_A^2=(980)(9.8)(30-15)+\frac{1}{2}(980)(17)^2=2.86\cdot 10^5 J$

Question 20

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

The image distance is 17.56 cm

Explanation:

We have,

Height of light bulb is 3 cm.

The light bulb is placed at a distance of 50 cm. It means object distance is, u =-50 cm

Focal length of the lens, f = +13 cm

Let v is distance between image and the lens. Using lens formula :

$\dfrac{1}{f}=\dfrac{1}{v}-\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{f}+\dfrac{1}{u}\\\\\dfrac{1}{v}=\dfrac{1}{13}+\dfrac{1}{(-50)}\\\\v=17.56\ cm$

So, the image distance is 17.56 cm.

A 40-W lightbulb is 1.7 m from a screen. What is the intensity of light incident on the screen? Assume that a lightbulb emits ra

Sonja [21]

Answer:

Intensity, $I=1.101\ W/m^2$

Explanation:

Power of the light bulb, P = 40 W

Distance from screen, r = 1.7 m

Let I is the intensity of light incident on the screen. The power acting per unit area is called the intensity of the light. Its formula is given by :

$I=\dfrac{P}{A}$
