As you coast down a long hill on your bicycle, potential energy from your height is converted to kinetic energy as you and your bike are pulled downward by gravity along the slope of the hill. While there is air resistance and friction slowing you down by a little bit, your speed increases gradually until you apply the brakes, causing enough friction to slow yourself and the bike to a stop at the bottom
Answer:
1960Joules
Explanation:
Since we are not told what too find, we can as well find the Gravitational Potential Energy.
GPE = mass * acceleration due to gravity * height
GPE = 100*9.8 * 2
GPE = 980*2
GPE = 1960Joules
Hence the gravitational potential Energy is 1960Joules
Answer:
v₁ = 3.5 m/s
v₂ = 6.4 m/s
Explanation:
We have the following data:
m₁ = mass of trailing car = 400 kg
m₂ = mass of leading car = 400 kg
u₁ = initial speed of trailing car = 6.4 m/s
u₂ = initial speed of leading car = 3.5 m/s
v₁ = final speed of trailing car = ?
v₂ = final speed of leading car = ?
The final speed of the leading car is given by the following formula:

<u>v₂ = 6.4 m/s</u>
The final speed of the leading car is given by the following formula:

<u>v₁ = 3.5 m/s</u>
Answer:
a force that is able to act at a distance
Explanation:
:)
A. The cliff was 30.7 m high
B. I also got 9.5 as the horizontal distance
Here is my work, I find making charts like this one to find knowns and unknowns can be helpful
