Answer:
The amount of Potential Energy lost in the form of Thermal Energy is equal to 41.64 MJ.
Explanation:
mass of the cart and passengers = m = 3.5*10⁴ kg
Height = h = 126.5 m
g = 9.8 ms⁻²
v = 10 ms⁻¹
At the top position the Total energy of the ride is in the form of potential energy given as:
P.E = mgh
= 3.5*10⁴*9.8*126.5
= 43389500 J
At the bottom of the drop, all the Potential Energy will be converted into K.E as the ride develops speed given as:
K.E = 0.5*m*v²
= 0.5*3.5 x 10⁴*100
= 1750000 J
The K.E is much less than the P.E energy even though all the P.E of the ride has been converted. The loss of energy is due to the formation of thermal energy which can be calculated as:
Thermal Energy lost = Total energy in the form of P.E(top) - Total energy in the form of K.E(bottom)
= 43389500 - 1750000
= 41639500 J
= 41.64 M J approx M J = mega joule = 10⁶ J
Answer:
Circuit one will have more current than circuit two
Explanation:
I am assuming that you have to see which circuit has the greater current in this case. Well, this is the perfect example of Ohm's Law, which states the following -
V = IR,
where V = voltage / potential difference, I = current, and R = resistance
If one circuit has twice the voltage and half the resistance of the second circuit, as voltage is directly proportional to the resistance -
2V = I( 1 / 2R ),
4V = IR,
I = 4V / R
Whereas in the second circuit -
V = IR,
I = V / R
As you can note, voltage is directly proportional to the current ( I ) as well as the resistance. The only difference between the two formulas I = 4V / R, and I = V / R is the difference in the voltage. With the voltage being 4 times greater in the first circuit, and current is 4 times greater in the first circuit as well.
<u><em>Hence, circuit one will have more current than circuit two</em></u>
