As the rollercoaster goes up. kinetic energy changes to gravitational potential energy. When it moves back down, gpe changes back to ke.
Answer:20s
To find speed we have to divide speed and distance
5=100/?
100/5=20
To calculate for the power developed in the elevator motor in ft.lb/s, we multiply the distance and the weight of the elevator and divide the product by the time.
Power = (10 ft)(2200 lb) / 20 s = 1100 ft.lb/s
Next, convert the calculated value to HP.
1100 ft.lb/s x (1 HP/ 550 ft.lb/s) = 2 HP
