Shanika is an engineer at an amusement park who is experimenting with changes to the setup for a magnetic roller coaster ride. I

n one ride, there are two identical roller coaster cars (orange and green) that start on opposite sides of a large magnet located at the center of a station. Shanika wants to get the largest increase in potential energy she can by moving one car one space to the left or the right.
Shanika can move the orange car to point A or point B, or she can move the green car to point C or point D. Which movement should she make? Why will that movement result in the largest increase in potential energy? Describe the magnetic force that will act on the roller coaster car she moves.

A slingshot is used to launch a stone horizontally from the top of a 20.0 meter cliff. The stone lands 36.0 meters away.

A) 

     It is a launch oblique, therefore the initial velocity in the vertical direction is zero. Space Hourly Equation in vertical, we have:

S=S_{o}+v_{o}t+ \frac{at^2}{2} \\ 20= \frac{10t^2}{2} \\ t=2s
 
     Through Definition of Velocity, comes:

\Delta v=  \frac{\Delta S}{\Delta t}  \\ v_x= \frac{36}{2}  \\ \boxed {v_{x}=18m/s}


B)
 
     Using the Velocity Hourly Equation in vertical direction, we have:

v_{y}=v_{y_{o}}+gt \\ v_{y}=10\times2 \\ \boxed {v_{y}=20m/s}
  
     The angle of impact is given by:

cos(\theta) =\frac{v_{x}}{v_{y}}  \\ cos(\theta) = \frac{18}{20}  \\ cos(\theta) =0.9 \\ arccos(0.9)=\theta \\ \boxed {\theta \approx 25.84}


If you notice any mistake in my english, please let me know, because i am not native.

Why are the trends for electronegativity and ionization energy similar
Goshia [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Ionization Energy Trends

Ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from a neutral atom in its gaseous phase. Conceptually, ionization energy is the opposite of electronegativity. ... As a result, it is easier for valence shell electrons to ionize, and thus the ionization energy decreases down a group

Unpolarized light with an average intensity of 845 W/m2 enters a polarizer with a vertical transmission axis. The transmitted li
RideAnS [48]

The concept to develop this problem is the Law of Malus. Which describes what happens with the light intensity once it passes through a polarized material.

Mathematically this can be expressed as

I = I_0 cos^2\theta

Where

I = New intensity after pass through the Polarizer

I_0= Original intensity

\theta = Indicates the angle between the axis of the analyzer and the polarization axis of the incident light.

When the light passes perpendicularly through the first polarizer, the light intensity is reduced by half which will cause the intensity to be 225W / m ^ 2 at the output of the new polarizer, mathematically:

I= \frac{I_0}{2} cos^2\theta

225 = \frac{845}{2}cos^2\theta

Solving to find the angle we have

\theta = 43.11\°

The orientation angle of the second polarizer relative to the first one is 43.11°
