A sled and rider with a combined weight of 70.0 kg are at rest on the top of a hill 11.0 m high. (Enter your answers in J.) Assuming there is no friction, what would the total energy be on sliding halfway down the hill?answer with:___ J
We know that at the top of the 11 m hill the sled and rider are at rest, which means that all the energy at this point is potential energy; the potential energy is given by:
[tex]U=mgh[/tex]Plugging the values given we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} U=(70)(9.8)(11) \\ U=7546 \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence at the top of the hill the total energy is 7546 J.
Now, from conservation of energy and since there is no friction, we know that at any point of the motion the total energy is the same as the starting energy.
Therefore, the total energy halfway the hill is 7546 J.
Note: At this point we would expect the potential energy to be half of what it was at the top of the hill and the other half will be kinetic energy; nonetheless the total energy, which is the sum of the kinetic and potential energy, has to remain the same as the initial energy.
How high should you be if you want to drop a tennis ball and have it hit the ground with a velocity of -25.0 mi/hr?
Data: Final velocity = 11.176m/s (or 25 mi/hr)
Firstly, we need to replace our values on the third given equation. It is convenient to use all the values on their SI units.
[tex]11.176^2=0^2-2*9.81*\Delta x\Rightarrow\Delta x=\frac{11.176^2}{-2*9.81}=-6.366m[/tex]Thus, the ball would need to be dropped from a height of 6.366m, or 20.89ft
determine the distance that light travels in a year.How long does it take light to travel 10 km? how long does it take sound to travel 10 km? How long does it take light to travel from the moon to earth?
The speed of light is equal to 300000 km/s.
Let's find how many seconds there are in a year:
1 year = 365 days = 365 * 24 hours = 365 * 24 * 60 minutes = 365 * 24 * 60 * 60 seconds
Now, multiplying this amount of time by the speed of light, we have the distance traveled by the light in one year:
distance = speed * time
distance = 300000 * 365 * 24 * 60 * 60
distance = 9,460,800,000,000 km
Now, the time needed for a distance of 10 km is:
distance = speed * time
10 = 300000 * time
time = 10/300000
time = 3.33 * 10^-5 seconds
The speed of sound is about 1225 km/h.
So, for a distance of 10 km, we have:
10 = 1225 * t
t = 10/1225
t = 0.008163265 hours
t = 29.39 seconds
The distance from moon to Earth is 384,400 km, so the time needed is:
384400 = 300000 * t
t = 384400/300000
t = 1.2813 seconds

If you throw a 0.3 kg ball straight up with an initial speed of 32 m/s, how fast will it be moving when it’s 20 m above the release point? Round your answer to the nearest tenth and include the appropriate unit.
Given:
The mass of the ball, m=0.3 kg
The initial speed of the ball, u=32 m/s
The height, h=20 m
To find:
The speed of the ball when it is at a height of 20 m.
Explanation:
The ball will be moving under the influence of acceleration due to gravity which is directed downwards.
From the equation of motion,
[tex]v^2=u^2-2gh[/tex]Where v is the final velocity of the ball and g is the acceleration due to gravity.
On substituting the known values,
[tex]\begin{gathered} v^2=32^2-2\times9.8\times20 \\ \implies v=\sqrt{32^2-2\times9.8\times20} \\ =25.1\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]Final answer:
The velocity of the ball when it is 20 m above the releasing point is 25.1 m/s
A train accelerates uniformly from rest to a velocity of 40 m s^-1, in 5 seconds.a)Find the acceleration of the train during the 5 seconds.b) Find the distance travelled by the train during the 5 seconds.
Answer:
a) 8 m/s²
b) 100 m
Explanation:
The acceleration of the train can be calculated as
[tex]a=\frac{v_f-v_i}{t}[/tex]Where vf is the final velocity, vi is the initial velocity, and t is the time. Replacing vf = 10 m/s, vi = 0 m/s, and t = 5 s, we get:
[tex]a=\frac{40\text{ m/s - 0 m/s}}{5\text{ s}}=\frac{40\text{ m/s}}{5\text{ s}}=8\text{ m/s}^2[/tex]Then, the distance traveled can be calculated using the following equation
[tex]x=v_it+\frac{1}{2}at^2[/tex]Replacing vi = 0 m/s, t = 5 s, and a = 8 m/s², we get
[tex]\begin{gathered} x=(0\text{ m/s\rparen\lparen5 s\rparen + }\frac{1}{2}(\text{ 8 m/s}^2)(5\text{ s\rparen}^2 \\ x=0\text{ m + }\frac{1}{2}(8\text{ m/s}^2)(25\text{ s\rparen} \\ x=0\text{ m+100 m} \\ x=100\text{ m} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the distance traveled by train was 100 m.

What is net force?Objects at rest tend to stay at rest, and objects in motion tend to continue to move at the same speed and in the same direction, unless an imbalanced force is applied.
Newton's first law states: , an unbalanced force refers to a force that is not completely balanced (or canceled) by other individual forces. Unbalanced forces exist when all vertical forces (up and down) do not cancel each other and/or when all horizontal forces do not cancel each other.
Net force is defined as the sum of all forces acting on a body. Net force is the term used in systems when there are a significant number of forces.
Net force = F₁ + F₂ + F₃….+ Fₙ
if the force acting differ in their angle the,
Net force = [tex]\sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2} + 2abcos}[/tex]θ
Where, a = F₁
b = F₂
θ = angle at which force exerts
For the given case:
a = 50 N
b = 60 N
θ = 90°
cos90 = 0
So, Net force (Fₙ) = [tex]\sqrt{a^{2} + b^{2}[/tex]

A proton traveling vertically upward (out of the page) experiences a magnetic force directed North. The direction of the magnetic field is_________.Group of answer choicesdown (into the page)SouthEastWest
To find:
The direction of the magnetic force.
Explanation:
The direction of the magnetic field or a magnetic force on a charged particle is given by the right-hand rule. It states that when the thumb, middle finger, and index finger are held in such a way that they are perpendicular to each other if the thumb is pointing in the direction of the positive charge and the middle finger is pointing in the direction of the magnetic force then the index finger will point in the direction of the magnetic field.
Thus applying this rule we find that the index finger will be pointing to the east.
Final answer:
Thus the direction of the magnetic field is east.
I need help answering these questions using my experiment results. I will send you the results
Answer:
(a) It changed
(b) It changed
(c) It changed
(d) It changed
Explanation:
For each parameter, we get:
(a) the final velocity of the ball.
The velocity is equal to the distance over time. Since the distance is always 10 m, the velocity will depend on the time. So, when the time is greater, the final velocity is smaller.
In this case, we can see that for each angle, we get different times, so, the angle affects the final velocity of the ball.
(b) work
The work can be calculated as:
W = Fdcosθ
Where F is the force, d is the distance and θ is the angle between them. When we change the angle of the incline, we affect the angle of the Force and the displacement, so the work changes.
(c) initial potential energy
The potential energy depends on the initial height, if the height is greater, the potential energy is greater. So, when the angle of the incline change, the height change, so the potential energy change
(d) final kinetic energy
The kinetic energy depends on the final velocity, if the final velocity is greater, the kinetic energy is greater. Since the final velocity changes with the angle, the kinetic energy also changes with the angle.

Which statement best describes the gravitational force of an object? (1 point)
O The object only has gravitational force when it is on the surface of a massive body, such as Earth.
O The farther away an object is, the greater its gravitational force will be.
O The greater the object's mass and the closer it is, the greater its gravitational force.
O The greater the object's mass, the less its gravitational force will be.
The attraction created by gravity is between masses. The gravitational force increases as the mass of an object increases (also called the gravity force). With an increase in the distance between masses, the gravitational pull rapidly lessens.
The gravitational force is the force that exists between two bodies regardless of whether there are any other objects in their path. Its formula isF=GMm/R²
Where, R is the object's distance from the center of the Earth and G is the gravitational constant ,M is mass of earth and m is the mass of the object.
Weight is the term for the gravitational pull that the earth has on an object. It is also equal to the product of acceleration due to gravity and mass of the object.Weight = mg, where m is an object's mass and g is its acceleration due to gravity .

8.5 m horizontally before it hits the water
below.
What was the pelican’s initial speed? The
acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s^2
Answer in units of m/s.
The initial velocity of the pelican, given that it dropped a fish from a height of 5.0 m is 8.5 m/s
How do I determine the initial velocity of the pelican?We'll begin by obtaining the time taken for the fish to hit the water. This can be obtained as follow:
Height (h) = 5.0 mAcceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.81 m/s²Time (t) =?h = ½gt²
5 = ½ × 9.81 × t²
5 = 4.905 × t²
Divide both side by 4.905
t² = 5 / 4.905
Take the square root of both side
t = √(5 / 4.905)
t = 1 second
Finally, we shall determine the initial velocity of the pelican. Detail below:
Horizontal distance (s) = 8.5 mTime (t) = 1 secondInitial velocity of pelican (u) = ?s = ut

In a reactor, if power is lost what lowers the control rods into the core to shut it down? Select one:a.hydraulicsb.peoplec.robotsd.gravity
Given:
The power is lost in a reactor
To find:
What lowers the control rods into the core to shut it down
Explanation:
Control rods are important safety features of reactors as they allow the user to control the output of the reactor. The control rods are held by electromagnetic fields.
If there is some sort of power failure or loss of signal the control rods are immediately released and fall into the reactor core because of gravity.
Hence, the correct option is gravity.
