You have been hired to design a spring-launched roller coaster that will carry two passengers per car. The car goes up a 12-m-hi
Vlada [557]

Answer:

Vmax=11.53 m/s

Explanation:

from conservation of energy

      E_A} =E_{B}

     Spring potential energy =potential energy due to elevation

   0.5*k*x²= mg(h_{B}-h_{A} )=mgh

   0.5*k*2.3²= 430*9.81*6

         k=9568.92 N/m

For safety reason

                                 k"=1.13 *k= 1.13*9568.92

                                    k"=10812.88 N/m

agsin from conservation of energy

      E_A} =E_{C}

    spring potential energy=change in kinetic energy

   0.5*k"*x²=0.5*m*V_{max}^{2}

      10812.88 *2.3²=430*V_{max}^{2}

           V_{max}=11.53 m/s

A) A spaceship passes you at a speed of 0.800c. You measure its length to be 31.2 m .How long would it be when at rest?
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

a

     l_o  =52 \  m

b

      l = 37.13 \ LY

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  speed of the spaceship is  v  =  0.800c

    Here  c is the speed of light with value  c =  3.0*10^{8} \ m/s

    The  length is  l = 31.2 \  m

     The  distance of the star for earth is d = 145 \  light \  years

     The  speed is v_s = 2.90 *10^{8}

     

Generally the from the length contraction equation we have that

       l  =  l_o  \sqrt{1 -[\frac{v}{c } ]}

Now the when at rest the length is  l_o

So  

      l_o =\frac{l}{\sqrt{ 1 - \frac{v^2}{c^2 } } }

      l_o =\frac{ 31.2 }{ \sqrt{1 - \frac{(0.800c ) ^2}{c^2} } }

      l_o=52 \  m

Considering b  

  Applying above equation

            l  =l_o \sqrt{1 -  [\frac{v}{c } ]}

Here l_o  =145 \  LY(light \ years )

So

           l=145 *  \sqrt{1 -  \frac{v_s^2}{c^2 } }

            l =145 *  \sqrt{ 1 - \frac{2.9 *10^{8}}{3.0*10^{8}} }

            l = 37.13 \ LY

A car travels from Boston to Hartford in 4 hours. The two cities are 240 kilometers apart. What was the average speed of the car
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Average speed is 60 km/hour

Explanation:

When we need to calculate average speed, we use this equation:

V = \frac{x_{f} - x_{o}}{t_{f} - t_{o}}

Where:   x_{o} = 0 km   position at the beginning

              x_{f} = 240 km   at the end

              t_{o} = 0 hours

              t_{f} = 4 hours

Then:     V = \frac{240 km - 0 km}{4 hours - 0 hours}

              V = \frac{240 km}{4 hours}

Finally    V = 60 km/hour
