Answer:

<h2>b) 4230 J </h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

extension= 40cm

Spring constant K= 52.9N/cm

Step two:

Required

the Kinetic Energy KE

the expression to find the kinetic energy is

KE= 1/2ke^2

substituting our data we have

KE= 1/2*52.9*40^2

KE=0.5*52.9*1600

KE= 42320Joules

<u>The answer is b) 4230 J </u>

An engineer designs a roller coaster so that a car travels horizontally for 162 ft, then climbs 137 ft at an angle of 31.0° abov
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

We know that

Δr = r₁ - r₀

r₀ = 0 i + 0 j

r₁ = (162+137*Cos(31º)+137*Cos(-48º)) i + (0+137*Sin(31º)+137*Sin(-48º)) j = (371.1028 i - 31.2506 j) ft

Δr = r₁ - r₀ = (371.1028 i - 31.2506 j) - (0 i + 0 j) = (371.1028 i - 31.2506 j) ft

Magnitude:

Δr = √((371.1028)²+(-31.2506)²) = 372.4163 ft

Angle:

tan θ = (- 31.2506 / 371.1028) = -0.0839   ⇒   θ = tan⁻¹(-0.0839) = - 4.8135º

(below the horizontal).

An object is going to the left at constant velocity. What is true? All forces acting on the object balance each other out. There
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Net force of the object is zero.

Explanation:

When an object is going to the left at constant velocity, this means there is no acceleration. Hence, no force. Had there been force,acceleration had been inevitable. Therefore, we can say that when an object moves with a constant velocity and in same direction, the net force on the object is zero.

Electromagnetic waves travel at a speed of 3.0 x 108 m/s. A radio station transmits waves
Sophie [7]

Answer:

1.2×10⁶ Hz

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf............. Equation 1

Where v = speed of wave, λ = wavelength, f = frequency.

make f the subject of the equation

f = v/λ............... Equation 2

From the question,

Given: v = 3.0×10⁸ m/s, λ = 2.5×10² m

Substitute these values into equation 2

f =  3.0×10⁸/2.5×10²

f = 1.2×10⁶ Hz
