A hockey puck sliding on smooth ice at 4 m/s comes to a 1-m-high hill. Will it make it to the top of the hill?

Answer:

No  it will not make to the top of the hill  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The velocity is  v  =  4 \ m/s

    The height of the hill is  h  = 1 \  m

Generally from the law of energy conservation we have that

   The kinetic energy of the pluck at the level position =  The potential energy of the pluck at the maximum height the  pluck can get  to  

So

       \frac{1}{2}  * m * v^2 =  m *  g *  h_{max}

=>    \frac{1}{2}   * v^2 =    g *  h_{max}

=>     h_{max} =   \frac{0.5 * v^2}{g}

=>     h_{max} =  0.8163 \  m

Given that the maximum height which the pluck can get to at this speed given in the question is less than the height of the hill then conclusion will be that the pluck will not make it to the top of the hill

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Whether the force exerted by the locomotive on the wall was larger

Than the force the locomotive could exert on the wall.

Explanation:

The Newton's third law of motion States that every force have it's equal and opposite reaction force, whose magnitude is the same as the applied force. Therefore the magnitude of these opposite forces will be equal.

So we have;

F12=-F21

F12 is the force in a direction

-F21 is the force in the opposite direction.

Therefore we see that the magnitude of the force the locomotive exerts on the wall is equal to the one the wall exerts on the locomotive. Both magnitudes are equal but in opposite directions.

The weight of a body above sea level varies inversely with the square of the distance from the center of Earth. If a woman weigh
Serjik [45]

Answer:

89.16pounds

Explanation:

The equation that defines this problem is as follows

W=k/X^2

where

W=Weight

K= proportionality constant

X=distance from the center of Earth

first we must find the constant of proportionality, with the first part of the problem

k=WX^2=131x3960^2=2054289600pounds x miles^2

then we use the equation to calculate the woman's weight with the new distance

W=2054289600/(4800)^2=89.16pounds

Q: Compare and contrast the different parts of the Electromagnetic Spectrum. Evaluate the usefulness of each part and decide whi
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

The infrared and ultraviolet parts of the electromagnetic spectrum can be used in the field of chemical analysis.

The sections of the EM spectrum are named in order of increasing energy gamma rays X-rays ultraviolet-visible light infrared, and radio waves. Microwaves used in microwave ovens are a subsection of the radio segment of the EM spectrum.

Electromagnetic energy travels in waves and covers a wide spectrum from very long radio waves to very short gamma rays. The human eye can only see a small portion of this spectrum known as visible light. The electromagnetic spectrum includes all frequencies of electromagnetic radiation that carry energy and travel through space in the form of waves. Low frequencies and long wavelengths make up the radio spectrum.
