Answer:

Point A (Maximum height)

Explanation:

Potential energy is given as the product of mass, height and acceleration due to gravity hence expressed as mgh where m is the mass of roller coaster, h is the height and g is acceleration due to gravity. Since the mass and g are constant for a roller coaster, the main factor that will influence the magnitude of energy is the height. The higher the height, the higher the potential energy and vice versa. Using the attached image, the highest point is point A

Answer:a

Explanation: Potential energy is defined as mechanical energy, stored energy, or energy caused by its position. The energy that a ball has when perched at a top of a steep hill while it is about to roll down is an example of potential energy which is saying

Given:
1st run: 20 meters North
2nd run: 15 meters East
time: 15 seconds

Average speed = total distance covered / total time taken
Ave. Speed = (20m + 15m) / 15s
Ave. Speed = 35m / 15s
Ave. Speed = 2 1/3  meters per second

Nostrana [21]

Answer:

51 Ω.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the equivalent resistance of R₁ and R₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Resistor 1 (R₁) = 40 Ω

Resistor 3 (R₃) = 70.8 Ω

Equivalent Resistance of R₁ and R₃ (R₁ₙ₃) =?

Since the two resistors are in parallel connection, their equivalent can be obtained as follow:

R₁ₙ₃ = R₁ × R₃ / R₁ + R₃

R₁ₙ₃ = 40 × 70.8 / 40 + 70.8

R₁ₙ₃ = 2832 / 110.8

R₁ₙ₃ = 25.6 Ω

Finally, we shall determine the equivalent resistance of the group. This can be obtained as follow:

Equivalent Resistance of R₁ and R₃ (R₁ₙ₃) = 25.6 Ω

Resistor 2 (R₂) = 25.4 Ω

Equivalent Resistance (Rₑq) =?

Rₑq = R₁ₙ₃ + R₂ (series connection)

Rₑq = 25.6 + 25.4

Rₑq = 51 Ω

Therefore, the equivalent resistance of the group is 51 Ω.

Can you help me? Thanks! 10+ points!
Elis [28]

Explanation:

velocity: average velocity equals Displacement /change in time.

Kinetic energy: K=1/2mv^2 (m = Mass) ( v = Velocity).

speed using the kinetic energy is also KE =1/2mv^2

(M in Kg) (V in m/s)

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

acceleration = 0.022 m/s^2

distance = 8.3 x 10^7 m

speed = 1.9 x 10 ^3 m/s

Explanation:

the parameters given are:

mass = 900kg

force = 20N

  • from the formula force = mass x acceleration

acceleration = force / mass

acceleration = 20 / 900

acceleration = 0.022 m/s^2

  • distance travelled in 1 day (86,400 seconds) = (1/2) x a x t^2

   (1/2) x 0.022 x (86,400^2) = 8.3 x 10^7 m

  • speed of the sun yatch (v) = a x t

0.22 x 86400 = 1.9 x 10 ^3 m/s
