Explain why the top of the loop cannot be the same height as (or higher than) the top of the first hill. Assume the roller coast

er and its surroundings are close to a closed system. Use what you know about energy transformations and the effects of friction within a closed system to write your answer.
Passage
Examine this diagram of a roller-coaster track. The very top of the first hill (point B) is higher than the very top of the loop (point D). After the cars reach point B, this roller coaster needs no additional energy to complete its trip.

Answer:

By conservation of energy, it can climb up to a height equal to that it went down before. However, due to the friction in the machines, the total mechanical energy of the roller coaster will decrease. As a result, the first "hill" of many roller coasters are the highest, but the followings will have decreasing heights.

When viewed in yellow light, an object that reflects all the colors of light will appear_____.
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Yellow.

Explanation:

An object that reflects all the incidents colors of light will surely reflect off the color yellow, and when the reflected ray hits our eyes, we will perceive the object as yellow. The object that reflects off all colors appears to us as white. So if you want to make sure, then just shine yellow light on a white fabric and see what happens!

What you will observe of course is a yellow fabric. Similarly, if you shine red light onto the fabric, it will appear red, and so on for all colors.

If two asteroids moved closer together, what would be the result on the gravitational force each asteroid exerts on the other?
spayn [35]
Gravitational force depends on inverse square law. That is, gravitational force is inversely proportional to square of distance between asteroids.
As distance between them decreases, gravitational force increases. Hence A is correct.
