What factors affect the amount of potential and kinetic energy a roller coaster has

Physics
1 answer:
Svetlanka [38]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

As the roller coaster goes higher, more potential energy is increased in the roller coaster. Caused by gravity and the roller coaster's position, the potential energy is stored in the roller coaster. For example, this ball is at the top of a hill, where potential energy is at it's highest. Potential energy can be calculated by Potential Energy=Mass X Acceleration X Height.

Which of the following statements describes nucleons?
Yuliya22 [10]
The correct answer is D.

A nucleon<span> is one of either of the two types of subatomic particles (neutrons and protons) which are located in the nucleus of atoms.
</span>

The total number of nucleon in the nucleus of an atom gives you an idea about the mass of that atom. In fact, one may refer mass number as nucleon number.

Simply put, nucleons are the particles that make nucleus of an atom and are held up together inside the nucleus due to nuclear force.

A 2 kg, frictionless block is attached to a horizontal, ideal spring with spring constant 300 N/m. At t = 0 the spring is neithe
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block

M = 2kg

Spring constant k = 300N/m

Velocity v = 12m/s

At t = 0, the spring is neither stretched nor compressed. Then, it amplitude is zero at t=0

xo = 0

It velocity is 12m/s at t=0

Then, it initial velocity is

Vo = 12m/s

Then, amplitude is given as

A = √[xo + (Vo²/ω²)]

Where

xo is the initial amplitude =0

Vo is the initial velocity =12m/s

ω is the angular frequency and it can be determine using

ω = √(k/m)

Where

k is spring constant = 300N/m

m is the mass of object = 2kg

Then,

ω = √300/2 = √150

ω = 12.25 rad/s²

Then,

A = √[xo + (Vo²/ω²)]

A = √[0 + (12²/12.5²)]

A = √[0 + 0.96]

A = √0.96

A = 0.98m

Un objeto se mueve con una rapidez constante de 8 m/s. Esto significa que el objeto: a) Aumenta su rapidez en 8m/s cada segundo
Hatshy [7]

Explanation:

Constant speed means that the object is covering equal distance in equal interval of time. The motion is called uniform motion for such case. In this problem, it is given that an object is moving with a constant speed of 8 m/s. It means that it does not change its speed. It is moving with a single speed constantly.

We can say that it moves 8 meters every second or 800 cm every second.
