A computational model predicts the maximum kinetic energy a roller coaster car can have given its mass, the speed at the highest

point of its journey, and the height of the highest point. The mass is 250 kg, and the highest point of the journey is at 30m, where the cart is at rest. What is the maximum kinetic energy?
A. 113500 J
B. 468750 J
C. 0 J
D. 73500 J

In a common but dangerous prank, a chair is pulled away as a person is moving downward to sit on it, causing the victim to land
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

(a) \vec{J}=176.4\frac{kg*m}{s} \hat{j}

(b) F=2125.30N

Explanation:

(a) According to the law of conservation of energy, the potential energy of the person at 0.40 m is equal to its kinetic energy before the colision with the floor:

\Delta U=\Delta K\\mgh=\frac{mv^2}{2}\\v=\sqrt{2gh}\\v=\sqrt{2(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})(0.40m)}\\v=2.8\frac{m}{s}

This is the initial velocity in the negative y-direction. Impulse is given by:

\vec{J}=\Delta \vec{p}\\\vec{J}=m\vec{v_f}-m\vec{v_i}\\\vec{J}=63kg(0 \hat{j})-63kg(-2.8\frac{m}{s} \hat{j})\\\vec{J}=176.4\frac{kg*m}{s} \hat{j}

(b) The average force is:

F=\frac{J}{\Delta t}\\F=\frac{176.4\frac{kg*m}{s}}{0.083s}\\F=2125.30N

chuck wagon travels with a constant velocity of 0.5 mile/minutes. determine the total distance traveled by Chuck Wagon during 12
n200080 [17]

Given:

Velocity: 0.5 mile/minute

Time: 12 minute

Now we know that speed and velocity have the same magnitude. Hence speed=velocity=0.5 mile/min

Substituting the given values in the above formula we get

Distance = 0.5 x 12= 6 miles
