A 2000 kg roller coaster is at the top of a loop with a radius of 24 m. If its speed is 18 m/s at this point, what force does it

exert on the track

Answer:

$46620\ \text{N}$

Explanation:

m = Mass of roller coaster = 2000 kg

r = Radius of loop = 24 m

v = Velocity of roller coaster = 18 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = $9.81\ \text{m/s}^2$

Normal force at the point will be

$N-mg=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow N=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}+mg\\\Rightarrow N=\dfrac{2000\times 18^2}{24}+2000\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow N=46620\ \text{N}$

The force exerted on the track is $46620\ \text{N}$ .

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Use the ammeter to measure the current that flows through each wire, because a larger current that flows through the wire corresponds to a smaller resistivity

Explanation:

Since they are connected to a constant voltage power source, the potential difference does not change. The potential difference is proportional to the product of the current and the resistance and, the resistance opposes the flow of electric current. It is clear to see that a large current that flows through the current means there is a lesser resistance to the flow of current at constant potential difference across the circuit.

61. A physics student has a single-occupancy dorm room. The student has a small refrigerator that runs with a current of 3.00 A

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

Part a)

$percentage = 21.3$ %

Part b)

$percentage = 2.13 \times 10^{-5}$ %

Explanation:

As we know that total power used in the room is given as

$P = P_1 + P_2 + P_3 + P_4$

here we have

$P_1 = (110)(3) = 330 W$

$P_2 = 100 W$

$P_3 = 60 W$

$P_4 = 3 W$

$P = 330 + 100 + 60 + 3$

$P = 493 W$

Part a)

Since power supply is at 110 Volt so the current obtained from this supply is given as

$110\times i = 493$

$i = 4.48 A$

now resistance of transmission line

$R = \frac{\rho L}{A}$

$R = \frac{(2.8 \times 10^{-8})(10\times 10^3)}{\pi(4.126\times 10^{-3})^2}$

$R = 5.23 \ohm$

now power loss in line is given as

$P = i^2 R$

$P = (4.48)^2(5.23)$

$P = 105 W$

Now percentage loss is given as

$percentage = \frac{loss}{supply} \times 100$

$percentage = \frac{105}{493} \times 100$

$percentage = 21.3$ %

Part b)

now same power must have been supplied from the supply station at 110 kV, so we have

$110 \times 10^3 (i ) = 493$

$i = 4.48\times 10^{-3} A$

now power loss in line is given as

$P = i^2 R$

$P = (4.48 \times 10^{-3})^2(5.23)$

$P = 1.05 \times 10^{-4} W$

Now percentage loss is given as

$percentage = \frac{loss}{supply} \times 100$

$percentage = \frac{1.05 \times 10^{-4}}{493} \times 100$

$percentage = 2.13 \times 10^{-5}$ %
