Using g = 9.8 m/s2, the statement that best describes the roller coaster car when it is at the top of the loop-de-loop is that The car has both potential and kinetic energy, and it is moving at 24.6 m/s.
The correct answer is <span>B) The car has both potential and kinetic energy, and it is moving at 24.6 m/s.</span>
Answer: B. II and III only
Explanation:
Let’s begin by explianing what energy is: the ability of matter to produce work in the form of movement, light, heat, among others. In this sense, there are several types of energy, but we will talk especifically in this case about <u>kinetic energy</u> and <u>potential energy</u>.
<u>Kinetic energy </u>is the energy an object or body has due to its movement and depends on the mass and velocity of the object or body.
To understande it better: If an object is at rest, its velocity is null and it does not have kinetic energy, however, if the object is moving, then it has kinetic energy.
On the other hand, <u>Potential energy</u> is known as <em>“stored energy”</em> that has the potential to be converted into energy of motion (kinetic energy) or another type of energy (thermal energy, for example). In addition, this energy is related to the work done when a certain force moves an object or body from its natural resting state along a distance to a new position.
So, according to this, Kinetic energy can be transformed into potential energy and Potential energy can be transformed into kinetic energy or any other type of energy. Hence, options II and III are correct.
The difference between a fuse and a circuit breaker is that a fuse is a one time circuit element while a circuit breaker is a multiple use device. If you were designing a circuit for a reading lamp, you should include a circuit breaker so you don't have to replace it every time.
Answer:
8 mph
Explanation:
4 miles in half hour so you add 4 more for the second half
Answer:
The artifact is 11,460 years old.
<u>Explanation</u>:
Given that,
The half life of the carbon-14 is 5730 years and we are left with 255 of the sample of wood from an arti-fact.
So it takes 5730 years for the sample to reduce into half
Initially there will be 100% of the sample so
after first 5730 years, the sample reduces into 50% percent
Now the left 50% sample will take another 5730 years to decay into half of its amount.
after next 5730 years the sample reduces into 25% percent
So totally after 2 half-life the sample reduces into 25%
That is (5730 +5730) years = 11460 years
