Which point on the roller coaster's path represents the maximum potential energy?

Physics

mariarad [96]4 years ago

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

Sauron [17]

Answer:

(a) 45 micro coulomb

(b) 6 micro Coulomb

Explanation:

C = 3 micro Farad = 3 x 10^-6 Farad

V = 15 V

(a) q = C x V

where, q be the charge.

q = 3 x 10^-6 x 15 = 45 x 10^-6 C = 45 micro coulomb

(b)

V = 2 V, C = 3 micro Farad = 3 x 10^-6 Farad

q = C x V

where, q be the charge.

q = 3 x 10^-6 x 2 = 6 x 10^-6 C = 6 micro coulomb

A 20-kg object is subjected to three forces which produce an acceleration a = -8 m.s^-2 i + 6.0 m.s^-2 j on the object. Two of t
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

F₃ = -151 N i + 96 N j

Explanation:

Newton's second law:

∑F = m*a Formula (1)

∑F : algebraic sum of the forces in Newton (N)

m : mass s (kg)

a : acceleration  (m/s²)

Forces acting on the object

F₁= 3.0 N i + 16.0 N j

F₂ = -12.0 N i+ 8.0 N j

F₃ = F₃x N i +F₃ y N j

x component of the net force on the object

Fx=F₁x+F₂x+F₃ x

Fx = 3.0 N-12.0 N +F₃x

Fx = F₃x - 9 N

y component of the net force on the object

Fy=F₁y+F₂y+F₃ y

Fy =16.0 N+ 8.0 N +F₃y

Fy = F₃y + 24 N

Newton's second law to the object:

a = -8 m/s² i + 6.0 m/s² j

∑Fx = m*ax    m=20 kg , ax = -8 m/s²

F₃x - 9 = 20 *(-8)

F₃x = -160+9

F₃x = -151 N

∑Fy = m*ay    m=20 kg , ay = 6 m/s²

F₃y + 24 =20*( 6 )

F₃y =120 - 24

F₃y = 96 N

F₃ = -151 N i + 96 N j

Liono4ka [1.6K]

1.085m

Explanation:

Using

a= lambda/sinစ

Sinစ= (587.5*10^-9) x 0.75*10^-3

= 0.000783

Sinစ=0.875*10^-3/d

0.000783= 0.875/d

d= 1.085m
