A computational model predicts the maximum potential energy a roller coaster car can have given its mass and its speed at the lo

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

The prediction for its maximum potential energy is 109,375 J

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the coaster car, m = 350 kg

speed of the coaster car at the lowest point, v = 25 m/s

The coaster car will have maximum kinetic energy at the lowest point and based on law of conservation of mechanical energy, the maximum kinetic energy of the coaster car at the lowest point will be equal to maximum potential energy at the highest point.

$K.E_{max} = P.E_{max}$

$K.E_{max} = \frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\K.E_{max} = \frac{1}{2} (350)(25)^2\\\\K.E_{max} =109,375 \ J$

$Thus, P.E_{max} = 109,375 \ J$

Therefore, the prediction for its maximum potential energy is 109,375 J

What happens to the light rays when they hit the specimen?

pogonyaev

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Ray of light when hits any specimen or object. The light is partially reflected, partially reflected and partially absorbed. It is never completed reflected, refracted or absorbed. Hence, the correct answer would be c.

A bus slows with constant acceleration from 24.0 m/s to 16.0 m/s and moves 50.0 m in the process. (a) How much further does it t

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

(a) Bus will traveled further a distance of 40 m

(b) It will take 7.5 sec to stop the bus

Explanation:

We have given initial velocity of the bus u = 24 m/sec

And final velocity v = 16 m/sec

Distance traveled in this process s = 50 m

From third equation of motion we know that $v^2=u^2+2as$

$16^2=24^2+2\times a\times 50$

$a=-3.2m/sec^2$

(a) Now as the bus finally stops so final velocity v = 0 m/sec

So $v^2=u^2+2as$

$0^2=24^2-2\times 3.2\times s$

s= 90 m

So further distance traveled by bus = 90-50 =40 m

(b) Now as the bus finally stops so final velocity v= 0 m/sec

Initial velocity u = 24 m/sec

Acceleration $a=-3.2m/sec^2$

So time $t=\frac{v-u}{a}=\frac{0-24}{-3.2}=7.5sec$

which statements about velocity are true? check all that apply. a. for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction

satela [25.4K]

a). for velocity, you must have a number, a unit, and a direction.
Yes. This one isn't bad. The 'number' and the 'unit' are the speed.

b). the si units for velocity are miles per hour.
No. That's silly.
'miles' is not an SI unit, and 'miles per hour'
is only a speed, not a velocity.

c). the symbol for velocity is .
You can use any symbol you want for velocity, as long as
you make its meaning very clear, so that everybody knows
what symbol you're using for velocity.
But this choice-c is still wrong, because either it's incomplete,
or else it's using 'space' for velocity, which is a very poor symbol.

d). to calculate velocity, divide the displacement by time.
Yes, that's OK, but you have to remember that the displacement
has a direction, and so does the velocity.
