Answer:

The correct answer is - 200000 J

Explanation:

We use the formula of kinetic energy:

The formula to calculate kinetic energy is,

Here,

Ec =1/2 x  m x v^2

The mass of the roller coaster is,  m  =  1000  k g

The speed of the roller coaster is, v = 20.0 m/s

 Therefore,

Ec=1/2 x 1000kg x (20m/s)^2 = 200.000Joule

200,000J

3. The electric field of a sinusoidal electromagnetic wave has an amplitude of 5.0 V/m. How much radiation energy passes through
True [87]

Answer:

e) 179 J

Explanation:

E_{o} = Magnitude of electric field = 5 V/m

A = Area of window = 1.5 m²

c = speed of electromagnetic wave = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

\Delta t = time interval = 1 h = 3600 sec

radiation energy is given as

U = (0.5)\epsilon _{o}E_{o}^{2}cA\Delta t

U = (0.5)(8.85\times 10^{-12})(5)^{2}(3\times 10^{8})(1.5)(3600)

U = 179 J

Astronaut A can cover 10 meters per minute walking with the heavy shovel. What does
klasskru [66]

Answer:

d) The speed of the astronaut

Explanation:

The sentence describes the speed of the astronaut. This speed value is 10meters per minute.

Now let us understand why;

  • Speed is the distance divided by time. It is a scalar quantity without regard for direction but it has magnitude.
  • The value 10meters per minute clearly shows this instance. We do not know the direction the astronaut is moving towards.
  • Velocity, like speed is the displacement of a body with time. It is a vector quantity and it shows the direction of motion.
  • For example, 10m/s due west is a velocity value because we know the direction.

Therefore, since there is no directional sense, the value indicates speed.

A car cruises at a constant rate of 50 miles per hour. How much time will it take to go 600 miles?
Len [333]
Speed is constant. 50 miles = 1 hour. 600/50 = 12. 1hr(12) = 12 hours.
