Potential energy is highest when the car is released at the top of the ramp. The correct answer is option C

Potential energy is the energy possessed by a body when the body is at rest. Potential energy is at time called gravitational potential energy which as a product of mass of the body, acceleration due to gravity and the height attained by the body. That is,

P.E = mgh

When a car is moving down a ramp, the potential energy of the car can never remain the same except the car stop at a certain point.

Whenever a car is moving down a ramp, the potential energy of the car will be highest when the car is release at the top of the ramp. And lowest when the car reaches the bottom of the ramp.

The statement that is correct about the potential energy of a car moving down a ramp is:

Potential energy is highest when the car is released at the top of the ramp.

Therefore, the correct answer is option C

A straight 1.20 m long conductor has a 2.00 A current travelling toward the East. Earth's magnetic field in this location is 4.9
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Force's magnitude=1.176\,10^{-4}\,N

Direction: down (towards the center of the Earth)

Explanation:

Recall that the magnetic force on a conductor of length L carrying a current I in a magnetic field B is given by the equation: F=I\,L\,B in the case the magnetic field B and the direction of the current are at 90 degrees from each other (which is our case). The direction of the force will be given by the "right hand rule" associated with the vector product that defines this force.

Since the current is moving East, and the magnetic field of the Earth goes from North to South, the resultant Force vector will be pointing towards the Earth (and perpendicular to the plane defined by the current's direction and the magnetic field B)

The magnitude of the force, is given by the formula above, and given that all quantities to be considered are is SI units, it will result in Newtons (N):

F=I\,L\,B\\F=2\,*\,1.2\,*\,4.9\,10^{-5}\,N\\F=1.176\,10^{-4}\,N

A 1,400 kg car accelerates from rest to 30 m/s in 6.0 seconds. what is the net force on the car?
Allushta [10]
So your finding acceleration first which is 30m/s divides by 6 seconds equals 5m/s^s and then multiply that by 1,400 kg and you have net force which is 7,000N

An object is thrown from the ground with an initial velocity of 30 m/s. What is the velocity at the point 25 m above the ground?
dsp73

Answer:

It's a pretty simple suvat linear projectile motion question, using the following equation and plugging in your values it's a pretty trivial calculation.

V^2=U^2+2*a*x

V=0 (as it is at max height)

U=30ms^-1 (initial speed)

a=-g /-9.8ms^-2 (as it is moving against gravity)

x is the variable you want to calculate (height)

0=30^2+2*(-9.8)*x

x=-30^2/2*-9.8

x=45.92m
