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

Why isn't Coulomb's law valid for dielectric objects, even if they are spherically symmetrical?
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

Explanation:

The "traditional" form of Coulomb's law, explicitly the force between two point charges. To establish a similar relationship, you can use the integral form for a continuous charge distribution and calculate the field strength at a given point.

In the case of moving charges, we are in presence of a current, which generates magnetic effects that in turn exert force on moving charges, therefore, no longer can consider only the electrostatic force.

A sample of an unknown substance has a mass of 89.5 g. If 345.2 J of heat are required to heat the substance from 285 K to 305 K
Zinaida [17]

Heat gained in a system can be calculated by multiplying the given mass to the specific heat capacity of the substance and the temperature difference. It is expressed as follows:<span>

Heat = mC(T2-T1)
345.2 = 89.5(C)(305 - 285)
C = 0.1928 </span>J/g•K

Assume that the electric field E is equal to zero at a given point. Does it mean that the electric potential V must also be equa
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

  • No, this doesn't mean the electric potential equals zero.

Explanation:

In electrostatics, the electric field \vec{E} is related to the gradient of the electric potential V with :

\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} V (\vec{r})

This means that for constant electric potential the electric field must be zero:

V(\vec{r}) = k

\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} V (\vec{r}) = - \vec{\nabla} k

\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = -  (\frac{\partial}{\partial x} , \frac{\partial}{\partial y } , \frac{\partial}{\partial z}) k

\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = -  (\frac{\partial k}{\partial x} , \frac{\partial k}{\partial y } , \frac{\partial k}{\partial z})

\vec{E} (\vec{r}) = -  (0,0,0)

This is not the only case in which we would find an zero electric field, as, any scalar field with gradient zero will give an zero electric field. For example:

V(\vec{r})= (x+2)^2 (y+4)^3 (z+5)^4

give an electric field of zero at point (0,0,0)

What is epsilon zero and why does it come into use, particularly in the case of Gauss's Law?
Paha777 [63]
<span>Epsilon zero is permittivity of free space means how much air or vacuum permits electric field to travel from one charge to other.It is constant in the coulomb law. This allow Gauss's a lot easier to solve rather than using K</span>
