15. If friction was completely removed from the track, what affect would this have on the roller coaster ride?

Physics
1 answer:
finlep [7]3 years ago
4 0
Answer:
A

Explanation:
The coaster wouldn’t eventually stop because there’s no fiction to stop it. In order for a object to stop, there must be a opposing force ( in this case, fiction).
It is true that the coaster could use hills to stop, but the coaster can’t use flat section to stop.
So what I think is that the answer is A.

Fun Fact:
It would be really tough just to stand up without friction.

I hope this help and have a nice day :)

A horizontal spring with stiffness 0.4 N/m has a relaxed length of 11 cm (0.11 m). A mass of 21 grams (0.021 kg) is attached and
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

0.6983 m/s

Explanation:

k = spring constant of the spring = 0.4 N/m

L₀ = Initial length = 11 cm = 0.11 m

L = Final length = 27 cm = 0.27 m

x = stretch in the spring = L - L₀ = 0.27 - 0.11 = 0.16 m

m = mass of the mass attached = 0.021 kg

v = speed of the mass

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy of mass = Spring potential energy

(0.5) m v² = (0.5) k x²

m v² = k x²

(0.021) v² = (0.4) (0.16)²

v = 0.6983 m/s

1.) How much potential energy does an object with a mass of 3 kg have on top of a stand 12 meters
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

<h2>352.8 Joules</h2>

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 3 × 9.8 × 12

We have the final answer as

<h3>352.8 J</h3>

Hope this helps you

During the spin-dry cycle of a washing machine, the motor slows from 90 rad/s to 30 rad/s while the turning the drum through an
loris [4]

Answer:

The magnitude of angular acceleration of the motor is 20\ rad/s^2.          

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial angular velocity, \omega_i=90\ rad/s

Final angular velocity, \omega_f=30\ rad/s

Angular displacement, \theta=180\ rad

Let \alpha is the magnitude of the angular acceleration of the motor. It can be calculated using third equation of rotational kinematics as :

\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2=2\alpha \theta\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{\omega_f^2-\omega_i^2}{2\theta}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{30^2-90^2}{2\times 180}\\\\\alpha =-20\ rad/s^2

So, the magnitude of angular acceleration of the motor is 20\ rad/s^2.
