Answer:

7056 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a ship roller coaster is 36,000 kg.

It reaches a height of 20 m off the ground

We need to find the gravitational potential energy does it have. The formula for the gravitational potential energy ios given by :

E = mgh

g is acceleration due to gravity

E = 36,000 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 20 m

= 7056000 J

or

E = 7056 kJ

So, it will have 7056 kJ of gravitational potential energy.

What happens if :<br> . The test charge is not tiny.
docker41 [41]

The magnitude of the test charge must be small enough so that it does not disturb the issuance of the charges whose electric field we wish to measure otherwise the metric field will be different from the actual field.

<h3>How does test charge affect electric field?</h3>

As the quantity of authority on the test charge (q) is increased, the force exerted on it is improved by the same factor. Thus, the ratio of force per charge (F / q) stays the same.

Adjusting the amount of charge on the test charge will not change the electric field force.

<h3>What is a test charge used for?</h3>

The charge that is used to measure the electric field strength is directed to as a test charge since it is used to test the field strength. The test charge has a portion of charge denoted by the symbol q.

Say you want to make a sling by swinging a mass M of 1.9 kg in a horizontal circle of radius 0.042 m, using a string of length 0
padilas [110]

Answer: T= 715 N

Explanation:

The only external force (neglecting gravity) acting on the swinging mass, is the centripetal force, which. in this case, is represented by the tension in the string, so we can say:

T = mv² / r

At the moment that the mass be released, it wil continue moving in a straight line at the same tangential speed that it had just an instant before, which is the same speed included in the centripetal force expression.

So the kinetic energy will be the following:

K = 1/2 m v² = 15. 0 J

Solving for v², and replacing in the expression for T:

T = 1.9 Kg (3.97)² m²/s² / 0.042 m = 715 N

A 1,200 kg car accelerates at 3 m/s2. What net force is the car experiencing during thisacceleration?0 3600 NO 2000 N0 2400 NOON
Mama L [17]

m = mass = 1,200 kg

A = acceleration = 3 m/s^2

Apply Newton's second law:

Force = mass x acceleration

F = 1,200 x 3 =3600 N

The net force the car experiences is 3600 N
