20 POINTS: Why does the initial hill of a roller coaster need to be steep?

2 answers:

A roller coaster does not have a engine to generate energy they climb up the first hill is accomplished. by a lift or a cable that pulls the train up . this builds a supply of potential energy that will be used to go down the coaster.

Answer: A roller coaster does not have an engine to generate energy. The climb up the first hill is accomplished by a lift or cable that pulls the train up. This builds up a supply of potential energy that will be used to go down the hill as the train is pulled by gravity

Hope this helps! Good luck with future homework and exams!

Answer:

Let d be the density of fluid.

So , Initial reading of balance, F1 =30dg N

After the level reaches 50cm^3

Final reading of balance , F2 =50dg N

Given that difference between final and initial reading is 30g

i.e, F2 −F1

=30 g

⟹50dg−30dg=30g

⟹20dg=30g

⟹d=30g/20g

⟹d=1.5g/cm^3

So, density of fluid is 1.5g/cm^3

In a football game, a 90 kg receiver leaps straight up in the air to catch the 0.42 kg ball the quarterback threw to him at a vi

irinina [24]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the equations related to the conservation of momentum. Mathematically this can be expressed as

$m_1v_1+m_2v_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f$

Where,

$m_{1,2}$ = Mass of each object

$v_{1,2}$ = Initial velocity of each object

$v_f$ = Final Velocity

Since the receiver's body is static for the initial velocity we have that the equation would become

$m_2v_2 = (m_1+m_2)v_f$

$(0.42)(21) = (90+0.42)v_f$

$v_f = 0.0975m/s$

Therefore the velocity right after catching the ball is 0.0975m/s

Suppose a 20-foot ladder is leaning against a building, reaching to the bottom of a second-floor window 15 feet above the ground

Papessa [141]

Answer:

The answer is β=0,85 rads

Explanation:

As the ladder is leaning against the building, we can imagine there´s a triangle where 20ft is the hypotenuse and 15ft is the maximum vertical distance between the ladder and the ground, it means, the leg opposite to β which is the angle we need

Let β(betha) be the angle between the ladder and the ground

We also know that $sin(betha)=(leg opposite)/(hypotenuse)$

In this case we will need to find β, this way:

$betha=sin^-1((15ft/20ft))$

Then β=48,6°

We also have that 2πrads is equal to 360°, in this way we find how much β is in radians:

$betha=(48,6°)*(2pirads/360°)$

then we find β=0,85rads
