Determine the kinetic energy of a 1000-kg roller coaster car that is moving with a speed of 20.0 m/s.

Physics

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

Answer:

9)a

10) I think true

11)b

Explanation:

9)a. because it's told that the car is slowing down, the sum of the forces that are towards left, should be more than the ones that are towards right. if the car was gaining speed, "b" would have been correct. and if it was told that the car is moving without a change in the speed, "c" would have been correct.

10) if a moving object has a change of speed or direction, it would have an acceleration. now if a moving object experiences an unbalanced force, it'd either slow down, gain speed or change direction, and in all of the three possibilities it'd have an acceleration.

11) upward and downward forces are equal, and the sum of them would be 0N(because they have opposite directions). so they negate each other.

and the rightward force is 5N more than the leftward force. so the Net Force would be 5N.

-30+30-10+15=5N

if it is unclear or you need more explanation, ask freely.

liraira [26]

Answer:

Both of them reach the lake at the same time.

Explanation:

We have equation of motion s = ut + 0.5at²

Vertical motion of James : -

          Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

         Acceleration, a = g

         Displacement, s = h

    Substituting,

                  s = ut + 0.5 at²

                 h = 0 x t + 0.5 x g x t²

                 t_{James}=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

Vertical motion of John : -

          Initial velocity, u = 0 m/s

         Acceleration, a = g

         Displacement, s = h

    Substituting,

                  s = ut + 0.5 at²

                 h = 0 x t + 0.5 x g x t²

                 t_{John}=\sqrt{\frac{2h}{g}}

So both times are same.

Both of them reach the lake at the same time.
