There are a couple of things happening while the coaster goes from the top of the hill to the bottom:

  • The coaster loses gravitational potential energy.
  • The coaster's loss in potential energy becomes its gain in kinetic energy.
  • The coaster's gain in kinetic energy causes it to speed up.
  • Maybe the coaster is also losing some of its newly gained kinetic energy to friction due to contact between the coaster's internal components and air resistance.

When you jump, you exert a pushing force against the ground. Gravity pulls you back down. Why can a person jump higher on the mo
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

This is because the force of gravity is much less on the moon than on the earth, therefore the person wont be pulled down much and will jump higher

PLZ HELP I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
Vaselesa [24]

Answer:

12.7m/s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of diver  = 77kg

Height of jump  = 8.18m

Unknown:

Final velocity  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply the motion equation below:

             v²   = u²  + 2gH

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

g is the acceleration due to gravity

H is the height

 Now insert the parameters and solve;

       v² = 0²  +  2 x 9.8 x 8.18

     v  = 12.7m/s

Charge g is distributed in a spherically symmetric ball of radius a. (a) Evaluate the average volume charge density p. (b) Now a
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Explanation:

The volume of a sphere is:

V = 4/3 * π * a^3

The volume charge density would then be:

p = Q/V

p = 3*Q/(4 * π * a^3)

If the charge density depends on the radius:

p = f(r) = k * r

I integrate the charge density in spherical coordinates. The charge density integrated in the whole volume is equal to total charge.

Q = \int\limits^{2*\pi}_0\int\limits^\pi_0  \int\limits^r_0 {k * r} \, dr * r*d\theta* r*d\phi

Q = k *\int\limits^{2*\pi}_0\int\limits^\pi_0  \int\limits^r_0 {r^3} \, dr * d\theta* d\phi

Q = k *\int\limits^{2*\pi}_0\int\limits^\pi_0 {\frac{r^4}{4}} \, d\theta* d\phi

Q = k *\int\limits^{2*\pi}_0 {\frac{\pi r^4}{4}} \,  d\phi

Q = \frac{\pi^2 r^4}{2}}

Since p = k*r

Q = p*π^2*r^3 / 2

Then:

p(r) = 2*Q / (π^2*r^3)

a rectangular block is having 5cm,5cm and 8cm with density of 7.).5g/cm^2. what is the mass of the block​
Art [367]

Answer:

Explanation:

Volume of the rectangular block= V = l×b×h

=5cm×5cm×8cm= 200cm³

Density of block= d= 7.5 g/cm³

Mass of the block= m= d× V

= 1500 grams=1.5 kg
