Answer: 81.619 kJ

Explanation:

Given

Mass of roller coaster is m=230\ kg

It reaches the steepest hill with speed of u=6.2\ km/h\ or \ 1.72\ m/s

Hill to bottom is 51 m long with inclination of 45^{\circ}

Height of the hill is h=51\sin 45^{\circ}=36.06\ m

Conserving energy to get kinetic energy at bottom

Energy at top=Energy at bottom

\Rightarrow K_t+U_t=K_b+U_b\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}mu^2+mgh=K_b+0\\\\\Rightarrow K_b=0.5\times 230\times 1.72^2+230\times 9.8\times 36.06\\\Rightarrow K_b=340.216+81,279.24\\\Rightarrow K_b=81,619.456\ J\\\Rightarrow K_b=81.619\ kJ

What is the mass of an object that creates 33,750 joules of energy by traveling at 30 m/sec?
nikklg [1K]
The Energy is Kinetic Energy.

Kinetic Energy = 1/2*mv²,  Where m is mass in kg, v is velocity in m/s

Energy is 33750 Juoles,  v = 30m/s

1/2*mv² = E

1/2*m*30² = 33750

m = (2*33750) / (30²)     Using a calculator

m = 75 kg

Mass of object is 75 kg.

What region of the spectrum best corresponds to light with a wavelength equal to:_____ a. The diameter of a hydrogen atomb. The
zavuch27 [327]

We will make the comparison between each of the sizes against the known wavelengths.

In the case of the <em>hydrogen atom</em>, we know that this is equivalent to 10^{-10} m on average, which corresponds to the wavelength corresponding to X-rays.

In the case of the <em>Virus</em> we know that it is oscillating in a size of 30nm to 200 nm, so the size of the virus is equivalent to the range of the wavelength of an ultraviolet ray.

In the case of <em>height</em>, it fluctuates in a person around 10 ^ 0 to 10 ^ 1 m, which falls to the wavelength of a radio wave.
