For the purpose we will use the following equation for potential energy:
U = m * g * h
In the above equation, m represents the mass of the object, h represents the height of the object and g represents the gravitational field strength (9.8 N/kg on Earth).
When we plug values into the equation, we get following:
U= 65.7kg * 9.8 N/kg *135m = 86921.1 J = 86.92 kJ
Answer:
Becomes softer as the temperature rises!
Explanation:
Answer:
Below
Explanation:
The cars upward accel adds to the gravity accel (think about how suddenly heavy you feel when the elevator starts to move upward)
F = tension = ma
= 1400 * ( .7 + 9.81) = 14714 N
Answer:
58,800 Joules
Explanation:
I used the formula for Potential energy which is PE = mgh
200 kg x 9.8 m/s^2 x 30 m = 58,800 J
At the very tops of the rollercoaster is maximum PE which is 58,800 J and 0 J of KE, but at the very bottom is maximum KE (kinetic energy) which is 58,800 Joules but 0 J of PE. This is because energy can not be destroyed ONLY converted
