On a double-well roller coaster, the person starts from a height of 10.5 meters, the height of the middle bump of the well is 6.

7 meters. How much kinetic energy does this person have at the middle of the middle bump from the bottom if the mass of the person is 79 kg? (g=9.8 m/s2) Round to two decimal places.

Answer:

"2941.96 J" is the appropriate answer.

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 79 kg

Height,

h = 10.5 m

Now,

The total energy at the given height will be,

⇒ Potential energy = mgh

On substituting the values, we get

                                = 79\times 9.8\times 10.5

                                =8129.1 \ J

So,

⇒ At height 6.7 m, total energy =  At height 10.5 m, total energy

On substituting the values, we get

⇒ Potential \ energy+Kinetic \ energy=8129.1      

⇒       79\times 9.8\times 6.7+Kinetic \ energy=8129.1

⇒                5187.14+Kinetic \ energy=8129.1

⇒                                   K.E=8129.1-5187.14

⇒                                   K.E=2941.96 \ J

The statement 'energy cannot be created or destroyed' BEST supports the idea that energy remains constant during an energy transformation. It is the first law of thermodynamics.

<h3>Law of Conservation of Energy</h3>

The law of conservation of energy, also known as the first law of thermodynamics, indicates that energy can neither be created nor destroyed.

According to this law, the energy can be interchanged from one type of energy (e.g., kinetic energy) form to another (e.g., potential energy).

The first law of thermodynamics is fundamental for understanding major science disciplines, and it is a rosetta stone in physics.

What is the force of gravity (from the Earth) on the 700kg satellite if it’s 10km above the Earth's surface?
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

g = 4.7 × 10^{-16} m/s^{2}

Explanation:

Given that the mass of the satellite = 700 kg, and 10,000 m above the earth;s surface.

From Newton's second law,

 F = mg ............... 1

From Newton's gravitation law,

F = \frac{GMm}{r^{2} } .................. 2

Where: F is the force, G is the gravitational constant, M is the mass of the first body, m is the mass of the second body, g is the gravitational force and r is the distance between the centers of the two bodies.

Equate 1 and 2 to have,

mg = \frac{GMm}{r^{2} }

⇒   g = \frac{GM}{r^{2} }

But; G =  6.67 × 10^{-11} N m^{2} Kg^{-2}, M = 700 Kg, r = 10000 m

Thus,

g = \frac{6.67*10^{-11*700} }{10000^{2} }

  = \frac{4.669*10^{-8} }{1*10^{8} }

  = 4.669 × 10^{-16} m/s^{2}

The force of gravity on the satellite is 4.7 × 10^{-16} m/s^{2}.
