A ski lift is used to transport people from the base of a hill to the top. If the lift leaves the

Liono4ka [1.6K]

The energy of the ski lift at the base is kinetic energy:
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
where m is the mass of the ski lift+the people carried, and $v=15.5 m/s$ is velocity at the base.
As long as the ski lift goes upward, its velocity decreases and its kinetic energy converts into potential energy. Eventually, when it reaches the top, its final velocity is v=0, so no kinetic energy is left and it has all converted into gravitational potential energy, which is
$U=mgh$
where $g=9.81 m/s^2$ and h is the height at the top of the hill.

So, since the total energy must conserve, we have
$U=K$
and so
$mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
from which we find the height:
$h= \frac{v^2}{2g}= \frac{(15.5m/s)^2}{2\cdot 9.81 m/s^2}=12 m$

A person hears a siren as a fire truck approaches and passes by. The frequency varies from 480Hz on approach to 400Hz going away

alekssr [168]

Answer:

31.2 m/s

Explanation:

$f_{app}$ = Frequency of approach = 480 Hz

$f_{aw}$ = Frequency of going away = 400 Hz

$V$ = Speed of sound in air = 343 m/s

$v$ = Speed of truck

Frequency of approach is given as

$f_{app} = \frac{Vf}{V - v}$ eq-1

Frequency of moving awayy is given as

$f_{aw} = \frac{Vf}{V + v}$ eq-2

Dividing eq-1 by eq-2

$\frac{f_{app}}{f_{aw}} = \frac{V + v}{V - v}$

$\frac{480}{400} = \frac{343 + v}{343 - v}$

$v$ = 31.2 m/s

What do you measure when you measure an object’s mass?

Effectus [21]

Answer:

how much space it takes up in the world

Explanation:

1) Mass is a measurement of the amount of matter something contains, while Weight is the measurement of the pull of gravity on an object. 2) Mass is measured by using a balance comparing a known amount of matter to an unknown amount of matter. Weight is measured on a scale.

When water in a lake freezes, the ice that forms floats on top of any water that is still liquid. Why does the ice float?

ddd [48]

Answer:

it floats because the lake is cold at that moment so when part of the lake freezes it still remains solid and floats because of the lake and the surrounding of the lake is still cold
