When she reaches the top, she has more potential energy than she had at the bottom.

         Potential energy = (mass) x (gravity) x (height)

                                     = (40 kg) x (9.8 m/s²) x (5 m)

                                     =    1,960 more joules .

         Power = (energy) / (time)

                     = (1,960 joules) / (7 seconds)

                     =         280 watts

                    (about 0.375 horsepower)

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

Incomplete question

The complete question is

A Ferris wheel is a vertical, circular amusement ride with radius 6.0 m. Riders sit on seats that swivel to remain horizontal. The Ferris wheel rotates at a constant rate, going around once in 9.6 s. Consider a rider whose mass is 96 kg.

At the bottom of the ride, what is the rate of change of the rider's momentum?

Explanation:

Radius of wheel is 6m

Rider mass=96kg

He completes one revolution in 9.6s

Let get angular velocity (w)

1 Revolution =2πrad

θ=2πrad

w= θ/t

w=2π/9.6

w=0.654rad/s

Linear speed is give as

v=wr

v=0.654×6

v=3.93m/s

Centripetal acceleration a

a=rw²

a=6×0.654²

a=2.57m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.81m/s²

According to Newton's second law of motion net force acting on the rider at the bottom of the ride is given by: the two force acting at the bottom is the normal and the weight of the rider

ΣF = ma

N-W=ma

N-mg=ma

N=ma+mg

N=m(a+g)

N=96(2.57+9.81)

N=1188.48 N

Therefore the rate of change of momentum at the bottom of the ride is 1188.48 N.

One form of energy can be _____ another type of energy.
kotegsom [21]

We can answer this one very quickly.  From the <em>Law of Conservation of Energy</em>, we know that "Energy can't be created or destroyed.".

So that only leaves us one way to complete the sentence in this question:

"One form of energy can be <em>transformed into</em> another type of energy. "  <em>(B)</em>
