Explanation:
Mass of the cable car, m = 5800 kg
It goes 260 m up a hill, along a slope of
Therefore vertical elevation of the car =
Now, when you get into the cable car, it's velocity is zero, that is, initial kinetic energy is zero (since K.E. = ). Similarly as the car reaches the top, it halts and hence final kinetic energy is zero.
Therefore the only possible change in the cable car system is the change in it's gravitational potential energy.
Hence, total change in energy = mgh =
where, g = acceleration due to gravity
h = height/vertical elevation
Answer:
6.18 m/s

Roller skate collision
The final direction of the system (me=M + person=P) velocity vector is at an angle; Ф, to the direction running south to north. Apply the component form of the impulse-momentum equation, firstly;
x-axis component form (+x east);

=
+
Ф
60 ·8 + 0 = (60 + 80)Ф
480 = 140Ф................. (I)
y-axis component form (+y north);
+
+
=
+
Ф
0 + 80.9 = (60 + 80)Ф
720=
140Ф
140Vf=Ф......................................(2)
Substituting (2) into (1) to give the angle;
480 = 720tan Ф
Ф = arctan(0.67) =33.69°.......................(3)
Evaluating (1) with (3) gives the velocity magnitude
480 = 140Vfsin 33.69°
Vf=6.18 m/s
note 1:
This angle corresponds to a direction; 90° - 33.69° = 56.31° north of east.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given:
- initial gauge pressure in the container,
- atmospheric pressure at sea level,
- initial volume,
- maximum pressure difference bearable by the container,
- density of the air,
- density of sea water,
<u>The relation between the change in pressure with height is given as:</u>
where:
dz = height in the atmosphere
= standard value of gravity
<em>Now putting the respective values:</em>
Is the maximum height above the ground that the container can be lifted before bursting. (<em>Since the density of air and the density of sea water are assumed to be constant.</em>)
