A skateboarder drops in off the top of one side of the half pipe shown below. She does not push off and starts from rest. She st

ands straight as she skates down one side and up the other. She expected to get to the top of other side but didn’t make it. The skateboarder recalled the law of conservation of energy from science and didn’t understand why she didn’t make it to the top of the other side.
Which of the following actions would help the skater reach the top of the other side of the half pipe?


Lubricate the wheels in order to reduce frictional force that is causing the skateboard to lose velocity and bend down while skating off the side and bottom of the half pipe.


Hold a weight in order to increase her mass and cause the skateboard to move with a greater velocity down the half pipe.


Sit on the skateboard in order to lower her center of mass and increase the potential energy of the skateboard.


Push off at the bottom of the half pipe in order to replace lost energy and add kinetic energy to the skateboard.

An ideal spring is hung vertically from the ceiling. The spring constant is k = 125 N/m. A block of mass m = 650 g (1000 g = 1 k
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

0.102 m

Explanation:

k = spring constant of the spring = 125 N/m

m = mass of the block attached to the spring = 650 g = 0.650 kg

x = maximum extension of the spring

h = height dropped by the block = x

Using conservation of energy

Spring potential energy gained = Gravitational potential energy lost

(0.5) k x² = mgh

(0.5) k x² = mgx

(0.5) (125) x = (0.650) (9.8)

x = 0.102 m

How long will it take a plane to fly 1256km<br> if it travels 500km/hr?
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 2.51 s</h3>

Explanation:

The time taken can be found by using the formula

t =  \frac{d}{v}  \\

d is the distance

v is the velocity

From the question we have

t =  \frac{1256}{500}  \\  = 2.512

We have the final answer as

<h3>2.51 s</h3>

Hope this helps you

The greater the mass is in an object, the higher resistance to a change in movement the object will have. Please select the best
Fofino [41]
This statement is true. The greater the mass is in an object, it is indeed the higher resistance to a change in movement the object will have. That only mean that the mass of an object and its resistance to change of movement is directly proportional.

Earth can be modeled with five layers based on the strengths and physical properties of the materials in them. Put the layers in
andre [41]

Answer:

Crust, Upper mantle, mantle, outer core, inner core

Explanation:

The Earth's layers have been clasified in 5 according to the materials that conform them, theri physical properties, strengths and also their state of matter. We all know how the outer layer of the Earth looks like, but if we start to dig a huge hole we are going to see different types por materials due to a change in pressure, temperature, and other factors. At the very center of the Earth there's what's called "core". The core is liquid and at extremely high temperatures. This is because of the enormous amount of pressure the rest of the Earth is putting it under. So, if we list the different layers of the Earth according to the materials they are made of, from the Earth's surface to the core, the answer is:

1) Crust (surface)

2) Upper Mantle

3) Mantle

4) Outer core

5) Inner core

In some books you may find a layer called Lithosphere. Tis layer consists not only of the crust, but also it contains the transition zone between the upper mantle and the crust.
