Answer:
As the marble starts rolling down the roller coaster, the amount of potential energy stored in the marble decreases while its kinetic energy increases. Potential energy is also converted into heat energy due to friction.
Explanation:
As the marble rolls down the hill its potential energy is converted to kinetic energy (its height decreases, but its velocity increases). When the marble goes back up the loop its height increases again and its velocity decreases, changing kinetic energy into potential energy.
The upward force of the chain on the diamond would be the tension in the chain, and this tension would have to support the weight of the 45g that hangs from the chain.
mass = 45 g = 45/1000 kg = 0.045kg
Weight = mg = 0.045 * 10 ≈ 0.45N, g ≈ 10 m/s²
<span>So the upward force is ≈ </span><span>0.45N. </span>
Force = mass × acceleration
To find acceleration, we can divide the speed by the time it took:
acceleration = 2.40×10^7 / 1.8×10^-9
acceleration = 1.33×10^16
the mass is equal to the mass of an electron
force = (9.11×10^-31)(1.33×10^16)
force = 1.21×10^-14 N
