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

The sides of a cube are each of length 1. 00 m. Each side is measured with an uncertainty
astraxan [27]

The absolute uncertainty in the volume of the cube is 0.06 m³.

We need to know about the uncertainty of measurement to solve this problem. The uncertainty of cube volume can be determined by

V = s³

|ΔV| = dV/ds x Δs

where V is volume, s is length, ΔV is uncertainty in the volume and Δs is the uncertainty of length.

From the question above, we know that

s = 1.00 m

Δs = 2% of s = 2/100 x 1 = 0.02 m

By using the uncertainty of volume formula, we get

|ΔV| = dV/ds x Δs

|ΔV| = d(s³)/ds x Δs

|ΔV| = 3s² x Δs

|ΔV| = 3. 1² x 0.02

|ΔV| = 0.06 m³

Hence, the uncertainty in the volume is 0.06 m³.

Which of the following is not true about the sun
skelet666 [1.2K]

<u>Answer:</u>

"The Sun's diameter is about five times that of Earth" is not true about the sun.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The Sun at the pivotal of the solar system is a star and covers 99.86% of the total mass of the system. Approximately 73% mass of the sun is due to hydrogen gas while nearly 25% mass due to helium and for the remaining mass small amount of heavier elements like carbon, oxygen, neon and iron are responsible.

The diameter of the sun is 864,000 miles or 1.39 million km or 109 times of the Earth while mass is 330,000 times of the Earth's mass. Sun is a almost perfect sphere of hot plasma with internal convective motion responsible for production of a magnetic field through a dynamo process. And the most important source of energy on Earth for life.

The question is not well presented.

There is  ______ shift in sound  frequency for observers towards  whom the source is approaching.

Answer:

The  gap should be filled with an apparent upward

Explanation:

The Doppler effect (also referred to as the Doppler shift) is the difference in frequency of a wave when related to an observer who has a relative movement to the wave source

The Doppler effect can be observed to occur with all types of waves - most notably water waves, sound waves, and light waves

The Doppler effect describes sound as an effect which is produced from a moving source of wave.

According to the Doppler effect;

When the source of waves in which there is an apparent upward shift in frequency for observers towards whom the source is approaching.
