A roller coaster is stationary at the top of a ramp.

Descriptive investigations involve collecting data about a system, but not making observations .

Angelina_Jolie [31]

The correct statement should be: Descriptive investigations involve collecting data about a system, but not making comparisons.
so i believe the statement above is false

In descriptive investigations, we shall not make any hypothesis for the situation and we just need to fully record all obeservations.
By doing this, we could fully analyze the variables without comparing and manipulating it.

An elevator of massmis initially at rest onthe first floor of a building. It moves upward,and passes the second and third floors

Varvara68 [4.7K]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts of Work. Work is understood as the force applied to travel a determined distance, in this case the height. The force in turn can be expressed by Newton's second law as the ratio between mass and gravity, as well

$W = mgh$

Where,

m = mass

h = height

g = Gravitational constant

When it ascends to the second floor it has traveled the energy necessary to climb a height, under this logic, until the 4 floor has traveled 3 times the height h of each of the floors therefore

$h = 3h$

Replacing in our equation we have to

$W = mgh\\W = mg(3h)\\W = 3mgh$

The correct answer is 4.

Let the displacement function of a particle is x(t)=(20t^2-15t+200). Find the total displacement, instantaneous velocity and ins

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

A.) 39.5 m

B.) 0

C.) 60m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that a displacement function of a particle is x(t)=(20t^2-15t+200).

To Find the total displacement,

Reduce everything by dividing them by 5

X(t) = 4t^2 - 3t + 40 ...... (1)

For instantaneous velocity, differentiate x(t). That is,

dy/dt = 60t - 15 ...... (2)

But dy/dt = velocity.

If dy/dt = 0, then

60t - 15 = 0

60t = 15

t = 15/60

t = 0.25s

Substitutes t in equation (1)

Total displacement will be

X(t) = 4(0.25)^2 - 3(0.25) + 40

X(t) = 0.25 - 0.75 + 40

Total displacement = 39.5 m

To calculate instantaneous velocity, substitute t into equation (2)

V = 60 (0.25) - 15

V = 0.

and to find instantaneous acceleration, differentiate dv/dt

dv/dt = 60

Therefore, acceleration = 60 m/s^2

Aluminum has a density of

agasfer [191]

<h3><u>Volume is 0.1848 m³</u></h3><h3 />

Explanation:

<h2>Given:</h2>

m = 49.9 kg

ρ = 270 kg/m³

<h2>Required:</h2>

volume

<h2>Equation:</h2>

$ρ \:= \:\frac{m}{v}$

where: ρ - density

m - mass

v - volume

<h2>Solution:</h2>

Substitute the value of ρ and m

$ρ \:= \:\frac{m}{v}$

$270\: kg/m³\:= \:\frac{49.9\:kg}{v}$

$(v)\:270\: kg/m³\:= \:49.9\:kg$

$v\:= \:\frac{49.9\:kg}{270\: kg/m³}$

$v\:= \:0.1848\:m³$

<h2>Final Answer:</h2><h3><u>Volume is 0.1848 m³</u></h3>
