Answer:

12.5 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Height (h) = 8 m

Final velocity (v) at 8 m above the lowest point =?

NOTE: Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

The velocity of the roller coaster at 8 m above the lowest point can be obtained as follow:

v² = u² + 2gh

v² = 0² + (2 × 9.8 × 8)

v² = 0 + 156.8

v² = 156.8

Take the square root of both side

v = √156.8

v = 12.5 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the roller coaster at 8 m above the lowest point is 12.5 m/s.

Complete question:

if two point charges are separated by 1.5 cm and have charge values of +2.0 and -4.0 μC, respectively, what is the value of the mutual force between them.

Answer:

The mutual force between the two point charges is 319.64 N

Explanation:

Given;

distance between the two point charges, r = 1.5 cm = 1.5 x 10⁻² m

value of the charges, q₁ and q₂ = 2 μC and - μ4 C

Apply Coulomb's law;

$F = \frac{k|q_1||q_2|}{r^2}$

where;

F is the force of attraction between the two charges

|q₁| and |q₂| are the magnitude of the two charges

r is the distance between the two charges

k is Coulomb's constant = 8.99 x 10⁹ Nm²/C²

$F = \frac{k|q_1||q_2|}{r^2} \\\\F = \frac{8.99*10^9 *4*10^{-6}*2*10^{-6}}{(1.5*10^{-2})^2} \\\\F = 319.64 \ N$

Therefore, the mutual force between the two point charges is 319.64 N

The answer is C. in sort of a way. You can't technically see black matter. However, it is holding the galaxies together.

Explain why airplane pilots should know wind velocity and not just wind speed during a flight

Lapatulllka [165]

Air speed is how fast you are peddling over the ground, wind speed is how fast the wind is blowing above the ground.Depending on the correlation between the two with direction thrown the pilot knows what sort of resistance he is flying against.

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

The depth of the water at this point is 0.938 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

At one point

Wide= 16.0 m

Deep = 3.8 m

Water flow = 2.8 cm/s

At a second point downstream

Width of canal = 16.5 m

Water flow = 11.0 cm/s

We need to calculate the depth

Using Bernoulli theorem

$A_{1}V_{1}=A_{2}V_{2}$

Put the value into the formula

$16.0\times3.8\times2.8=16.5\times x\times 11.0$

$x=\dfrac{16.0\times3.8\times2.8}{16.5\times11.0}$

$x=0.938\ m$

Hence, The depth of the water at this point is 0.938 m.

If a farsighted person has a near point that is 0.600 m from the eye, what is the focal length f2 of the contact lenses that the

Doss [256]

Answer:

0.84 cm

Explanation:

u = Object distance = 0.35 cm

v = Image distance = -0.6 cm (near point is considered as image distance and negative due to sign convention)

f = Focal length

From lens equation

$\frac{1}{f_2}=\frac{1}{u}+\frac{1}{v}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f_2}=\frac{1}{0.35}+\frac{1}{-0.6}\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{f_2}=\frac{25}{21}\\\Rightarrow f_2=\frac{21}{25}=0.84\ cm$

Focal length of the lens is 0.84 cm
