Hi there!

Assuming the track is frictionless:

E_i = E_f\\\\PE = KE\\\\mgh = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Cancel out the masses and rearrange to solve for velocity:

gh = \frac{1}{2}v^{2}\\\\v = \sqrt{2gh}\\\\

Plug in the given height and let g = 9.8 m/s²:

v = \sqrt{2(9.8)(57)} = \boxed{33.42 m/s}

Why does Mars not have an electric field and why
tangare [24]

Answer:

The difference lies in the planets' respective magnetic fields, because while Earth's magnetism comes from within, Mars' does not. Earth's magnetism comes from its core, where molten, electrically conducting iron flows beneath the crust. Its magnetic field is global, meaning it surrounds the entire planet

These questions !plz !! i need help!!!
Nataly_w [17]

(6) Wagon B is at rest so it has no momentum at the start. If <em>v</em> is the velocity of the wagons locked together, then

(140 kg) (15 m/s) = (140 kg + 200 kg) <em>v</em>

==>   <em>v</em> ≈ 6.2 m/s

(7) False. If you double the time it takes to perform the same amount of work, then you <u>halve</u> the power output:

<em>E</em> <em>/</em> (2<em>t </em>) = 1/2 × <em>E/t</em> = 1/2 <em>P</em>
