A block slides down a frictionless inclined ramp and experiences no significant air resistance. If the ramp angle is 17 degrees

above the horizontal and the length of the surface of the ramp is 20.0 m find the speed of the block as it reaches the bottom of the ramp assuming that it started from rest.

Answer:

10.71m/s

Explanation:

Mechanical energy is conserved since the ramp surface had no friction and the experiences no significant air resistance

Potential energy at the top of the ramp = mgh

where m is m, g = 9.8 m/s² ( acceleration due to gravity ) and h is height

since the length of the surface L of the ramp is 20.0 m and it is inclined at 17°

h, height = Lsinθ = 20 sin 17° = 5.85 m

kinetic energy of the block = \frac{1}{2}mv²

potential energy = kinetic energy

m × 9.8 × 5.85 m = \frac{1}{2}mv²

cancel m on both side

v = √(2 × 9.8 × 5.85) = 10.71m/s

A capacitor with C = 6.00 μF is fully charged by connecting it to a battery that has emf 50.0 V. The capacitor is disconnected f
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

1.99×10^-4coulombs

Explanation:

The charge (Q) across the resistor the directly proportional to the voltage (V) where capacitance of the capacitor(C) is the proportionality constant. Mathematically, Q = CV

If V is the voltage across the resistor, V = IR (according to ohm's law) where I is the current in the resistor and R is the resistance.

We need to calculate the voltage on the resistor first when 0.18A current is passed through it.

V = 0.18 × 185

V = 33.3Volts

The charge Q on the resistor will be;

Q = CV

Were C = 6.00 μF, V = 33.3

Q= 6×10^-6 ×33.3

Q = 0.0001998

Q= 1.99×10^-4Coulombs

A roller coaster travels 200 feet horizontally and then rises 135 feet at an angle of 30 degrees above the ground. What is the m
Delvig [45]
Say the initial point is (0,0)

The final point is

x = 200 + 135*cos(30) = 200 + 135*sqrt(3)/2 = 316.91 ft
y = 135*sin(30) = 135/2 = 67.5 ft

Resultant vector = (316.91, 67.5) - (0,0) = 316.91, 67.5) ft

When the balloon hits the ground, it rebounds slightly. What is the source of the energy for this rebound? A. When the balloon h
nevsk [136]

Answer:

The correct answer is c.    When the balloon hits the ground, the rubber envelope stretches, storing elastic potential energy; this elastic potential energy is converted to the gravitational potentiaL

Explanation:

Let's analyze the situation of the globe

When it touches the ground, the part that is in contact decreases its velocity to zero, but the upper part of the ball continues to move, which creates that the molecules approach slightly, if we approximate the spring links, a repulsive force is created that after all the particles reach zero speed. The force of the springs moves the ball up until the force decreases to zero.

We can relate this force of Hooke with an elastic energy

This energy can be stored in the deformation of the system, as elastic potential energy, which is subsequently transformed into gravitational potential energy when the balloon is lifted.

The correct answer is c

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

884Hz

Explanation:

Beats is the absolute difference between two frequencies therefore

Beats = f1-f2

4=f1-880

F1=880+4

F1=884Hz
