When traveling at top speed, a roller coaster train with a mass of 12,000 kg has a velocity of 30 m/s. The kinetic energy of the

train at top speed is J. Given this kinetic energy, what is the tallest hill this roller coaster train can reach the top of? The train can climb a hill that is m high. pls help

Answer:

Kinetic energy = 5400000 J

Height, h = 45.91 m

Explanation:

Method:

Mass of the roller coaster train, m = 12,000 kg

Velocity of the train, v = 30 m/s

Kinetic energy = 1/2mv^2 (^2 stands for square)

                         = 1/2 x 12000 x 30 ^2

                         = 5400000 J

For height

In general, as,

P.E + K.E = P.E + K.E

0 + 5400000 = mgh + 0

5400000 J = 12000 kg x 9.8 m/s x h

h = 45.91 m

Answer:

Explanation:

Comment

You have to read this carefully enough that you don't mix up energy and forces.

Gravity is a force. If you don't believe me try jumping off a building. Which way are you going to go and why? Down because gravity attracts your mass.

So Magnetism must be a force as well. It acts in one direction, but not a specific one the way gravity acts). It also either attracts or repulses (pushes an object away)

A constant torque is applied to a rigid wheel whose moment of inertia is 2.0 kg · m2 around the axis of rotation. If the wheel s
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

The applied torque is 3.84 N-m.      

Explanation:

Given that,

Moment of inertia of the wheel is 2\ kg-m^2

Initial speed of the wheel is 0 (at rest)

Final angular speed is 25 rad/s

Time, t = 13 s

The relation between moment of inertia and torque is given by :

\tau=I\alpha \\\\\tau=I\times \dfrac{\omega_f}{t}\\\\\tau=2\times \dfrac{25}{13}\\\\\tau=+3.84\ N-m

So, the applied torque is 3.84 N-m.

Nitella [24]

A couple of things, if the shuttle burned all of it's fuel before entering Earth's atmosphere then that means that the shuttle was accelerating towards Earth until it ran out of fuel.  At that point, there is little to no air resistance (friction) by the lack of an atmosphere so it keeps accelerating  due to Earth's gravitational force.  The closer the shuttle gets to Earth the stronger the gravitational pull the shuttle experiences.  Note that, once the shuttle reaches Earth's atmosphere it will cause significant amount of friction and thus will cause the shuttle to slow down.
