Hey! I empathize with you, as I just started the energy unit in physics as well!
Alright, lets list what we know, and which equation(s) we need.
PE = Gravitational Potential Energy
m = mass
g = gravity (9.8 m/s^2)
h = height
Guess what?
We need to find the height!
Lets make this more organized:
Known:
m = 40 kg
PE = 14000
g = 9.8 m/s^2
Unknown:
h = ?
================================
Now, if we take a look at the equation PEg = mgh, you will see that we have everything besides the height! So lets solve for the height by substituting in for the variables we know:
14000 J = 40 kg * (9.8 m/s^2) * h
40 * 9.8 = 392
14000 J = 392 * h
14000/392 = h
35.71 m = h
There we go! If you simply list what you know and don't know, you will find the equation you need to solve the problem.
Have a great day and good luck!
Answer:
4.8 turns would be made around the tube
Explanation:
You need the circumference of the tube since it's just a lifted circle
2×pi×3=18.85
90.42/18.85=4.79
And round that to 4.8
I think that ball a hit the ground because it says that it went straight down.
Answer: C
Frictional force
Explanation:
The description of the question above is an example of a circular motion.
For a car travelling in a curved path, the frictional force between the tyres and the road surface will provide the centripetal force.
Since the road is banked, and the cross section of the banked road is constructed like a ramp. The car drives transversely to the slope of the ramp, so that the wheels of one side of the car are lower than the wheels on the other side of the car, for cornering the banked road, the car will not rely only on the frictional force.
Therefore, the correct answer is option C - the frictional force.
