Sarah and her bicycle have a total mass of 40 kg. Her speed at the top of a 10 m high and 100m long hill is 5 m/s. If the force

of friction on her way down is 20 N, at what speed will she be going when she reaches the bottom

Answer:

She will be going at 11.01 m/s when she reaches the bottom.      

Explanation:

We can find the speed at the bottom by equating the total work with the change in energy:

W = E_{f} - E_{i}   (1)

There is no energy conservation because there is a force of friction on her way down.  

By entering W = -F_{\mu}*d, where F_{\mu} is the force of friction (is negative because it is in the opposite direction of motion) and <em>d</em> is the displacement, into equation (1) we have:

-F_{\mu}*d = E_{f} - E_{i}  

In the initial state, we have kinetic and potential energy and in the final state, we have only kinetic energy.

-F_{\mu}*d = \frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2} - (\frac{1}{2}mv_{i}^{2} + mgh)  

Where:

m: is the total mass = 40 kg

v_{f}: is the final speed =?

v_{i}: is the intial speed = 5 m/s

g: is the gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h: is the height = 10 m

-20 N*100 m = \frac{1}{2}40 kg*v_{f}^{2} - \frac{1}{2}*40 kg*(5 m/s)^{2} - 40 kg*9.81 m/s^{2}*10 m    

By solving the above equation for v_{f} we have:

v_{f} = 11.01 m/s      

Therefore, she will be going at 11.01 m/s when she reaches the bottom.                                    

                     

I hope it helps you!

Energy, heavier atoms atoms, neutron and a proton are the products of a fusion reaction.

<h3>What are the products of a fusion reaction?</h3>

Nuclear fusion is a type of reaction in which two or more atomic nuclei fuse or combine to form heavy nuclei and subatomic particles such as neutrons or protons and release of energy.

So we can conclude that Energy, heavier atoms, neutron and a proton are the products of a fusion reaction.

I will give Brainliest to whoever can answer!!!!
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

The nodes and anti nodes would reverse roles.

Explanation:

I believe it has to do with the path differences. If waves are in phase, then the path differences are such that the waves reach the screen with crests superimposing crests and troughs superimposing troughs. This happens when the periods of each wave are equal or the paths themselves differ by a whole number multiple of the wavelength (λ, 2λ, 3λ, ...).

Now make these waves out of phase. Then half of the waves will travel half a wavelength farther than the rest. So the path difference will be 0.5λ, 1.5λ, 2.5λ, ....
