What is the car's speed at the bottom of the dip?The passengers in a roller coaster car feel 50% heavier thantheir true weight a

Rashid [163]

Answer:

v = 14 m/s

Explanation:

given,

radius of dip = 40 m

The passengers in a roller coaster car feel 50% heavier than their true weight.

Apparent weight

$A = W + \dfrac{W}{2}$

$A =\dfrac{3W}{2}$

$A =\dfrac{3mg}{2}$

When the car is at the bottom, the weight will be acting downwards and the centripetal force will also be acting downward where as Normal force which is apparent weight will be acting in upward direction.

now,

$N = m g + \dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$\dfrac{3mg}{2} = m g + \dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$\dfrac{mg}{2} = \dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$v = \sqrt{\dfrac{rg}{2}}$

$v = \sqrt{\dfrac{40\times 9.8}{2}}$

v = 14 m/s

Light could be thought of as a stream of tiny particles discharged by _______ objects that travel in straight paths. *

Gelneren [198K]

Answer: Light could be thought of as a stream of tiny particles discharged by luminous objects that travel in straight paths.

Explanation:

We can define "radiation" as the transmision of energy trough waves or particles.

Particularly, light is a form of electromagnetic radiation, so the "tiny particles" of light are discharged by a radiating object, particularly we can be more explicit and call it a luminous object, in this way we are being specific about the nature of the radiation of the object.

A calorimeter directly measures ______ in order to calculate ______. (1 point)

Aneli [31]

The complete sentence is:

A calorimeter directly measures changes in temperature in order to calculate specific heat.

In fact, the amount of energy acquired/released by a substance is directly proportional to its change in temperature due to the equation

$Q=mC_s \Delta T$

where Q is the amount of energy, m is the mass of the substance, Cs is the specific heat of the substance and $\Delta T$ is the change in temperature. Therefore, by knowing Q, m and by measuring the change in temperature, it is possible to calculate Cs, the specific heat capacity of the substance.
