The Outlaw Run roller coaster in Branson, Missouri, features a track that is inclined at 84 ∘ below the horizontal and that span

s a 49.4-m (162 ft) change in height.
a)If the coefficient of friction for the roller coaster is μk = 0.28, what is the magnitude of the friction force on a 1600-kg coaster train?
b)How much work is done by friction during the time the coaster train travels along the incline?
c)What is the speed of the coaster train at the bottom of the incline, assuming it started from rest at the top?

Answer:

Explanation:

a)

Ff = μmgcosθ

Ff = 0.28(1600)(9.8)cos(-84)

Ff = 458.9217...

Ff = 460 N

b)  ignoring the curves required at top and bottom which change the friction force significantly, especially at the bottom where centripetal acceleration will greatly increase normal forces and thus friction force.

W = Ffd

W = 458.9217(-49.4/sin(-84)

W = 22,795.6119...

W = 23 kJ

c) same assumptions as part b

The change in potential energy minus the work of friction will be kinetic energy.

KE = PE - W

½mv² = mgh - (μmgcosθ)d

v² = 2(gh - (μgcosθ)(h/sinθ))

v = √(2gh(1 - μcotθ))

v = √(2(9.8)(49.4)(1 - 0.28cot84))

v = 30.6552...

v = 31 m/s

Rama09 [41]

Light bulbs can be used to indicate current flow in a circuit. The brightness of a bulb is proportional to the amount of current passing throw it. The figure shows a battery, a switch, two light bulbs, and a capacitor that is initially uncharged The brightness of a lightbulb is given by its power. P = I2R, and so brightness depends on current and resistance

<h3>What is current flow?</h3>

A stream of charged particles, such as electrons or ions, traveling through an electrical conductor or a vacuum is known as an electric current. The net rate of electric charge flowing through a surface or into a control volume is how it is calculated. [622 Charge carriers, which can be any of a number of particle kinds depending on the conductor, are the moving particles. Electrons flowing over a wire are frequently used as charge carriers in electric circuits. They can be electrons or holes in semiconductors. Ions are the charge carriers in an electrolyte, whereas ions and electrons are the charge carriers in plasma, an ionized gas.

At 80 degrees celsius the vapor pressure of benzene is 753 torr and that of toluene is 290 torr. What is the total pressure and
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The total pressure of the solution is 598.66 torr

while the vapor pressure of the components is vapor pressure of benzene is =502 torr and that of toluene = 96.6 tor

Explanation:

To solve this question, we need to look at the known variables, the unknown variables, and then we select the appropriate relations between the known variables and the unknown

Here we have the temperature of the gases t = 80°C

the pressures of benzene = 753 torr

the pressures of toluene = 290 torr

mole fraction of benzene in solution = 2/3

mole fraction of toluene in solution = 1/3

the unknown variables = composition of the solution  and the total pressure of the solution

From here given the known variables and the required variables, the appropriate relation bstween the known and unknown variables is Route's Law

Raoult's relates the vapor pressure of a mixture of gases to the mole fraction of solute gases introduced in the  gas solution. Raoult's Law is expressed by the formula: Psolution = Χsolvent1×Psolvent1 + Χsolvent2×Psolvent2+ ... .

where. Psolution = vapor pressure of the solution and

Χsolvent1 = mole fraction of solvent 1

Psolvent1 = vapor pressure of solvent1

Thus we have by Raoult's Law

P_{solution} = X_{benzene} × P_{benzene}+ X_{toluene}×P_{toluene}

which is =2/3×753 + 1/3×290 = 502 + 96.6 = 598.66 torr

and composition vapor pressure of benzene is 502 torr

while the composition vapor pressure of toluene is 96.6 torr

Which of the following statements are true? (There may be more than one correct choice.)
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

option (A)

Explanation:

According to the Archimede's principle, when a body s immersed partly or wholly in a liquid, it experiences an upward force which is called buoyant force. The buoyant force is equal to the loss in the weight of body.

The weight of liquid displaces by the body is equal to the loss in weight of body.

Thus, option (a) is true.
