1. Click the “Energy” box on the top left to view the changes in PE, KE and thermal energy.
2. Check the boxes for grid and reference height at the bottom left.
3. Check all of the boxes at the top right corner of the simulation including: Pie Chart, Grid, and
Speed.
4. Choose stick to track, none for friction, tiny for gravity, 100kg for mass.
5. Move the skateboarder to the top (maximum height, 6 meters) of one side of the skate
ramp. Release the skateboarder.
6. Spend a few minutes to make sure you understand how potential energy, kinetic energy,
and speed are affected during the simulation. You can pause the simulation, use the slow play button if you need to.


Question 1a: How high does the skater move as the skater goes back and forth from one side of the ramp to the other ?

2. Will the skater fall off the ramp when released at the maximum height of the ramp? Why or why not ?

3. Describe two different ways to increase the total energy in the system in this simulation?

4. As the skateboarder goes back and forth on the ramp, how does thermal energy change?

Create the skate paths as shown. Play the simulation with no friction and then with lots of friction.


Question 2
If the skater starts on the left side on a frictionless track, will the skater have enough energy to make it all the way to the right side? Why?

Question 3
If the skater starts on the left side on a track with friction, will the skater have enough energy to make it all the way to the right side? Why?

Answer:

Answers given below:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The skater will never get any higher than 6 meters because he can't create any energy, since he has a certain amount of potential energy that is being converted to kinetic energy so he could move up the ramp and then converted again to potential energy when he is at 6 meters on the other side.

2. No. As when the skater is dropped onto the ramp from above, the potential energy decreases and the kinetic energy increases. Every time the skater bounces from the impact, thermal energy is gained, and both potential and kinetic energy are lost.

3. This means that internal energy of a system can be increased by adding heat into the system or by performing work on the system. As per the given problem, we can increase the height of the system. 

4. As the skateboarder goes down the ramp, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. Because of friction, some of the energy in the system is converted to heat energy. Once the kinetic energy is converted to heat, the energy cannot be converted back to the potential or kinetic energy in the system.

Question2

Along the path from left to right, no energy is converted to thermal energy since the track is frictionless. If no energy is lost, the skater will have enough energy to reach the same height he started with.

Question 3
The energy is being converted to thermal energy because the friction between the ramp and the skater causes heat. This means in real life that if the skater causes a lot of friction while skateboarding, he or she would be slower and have less energy on the ramp.

Answer: Option B and C are True.

Explanation:
The weight of the two blocks acts downwards.
Let the weight of the two blocks be W. Solving for T₁ and T₂:
w = T₁/cos 60° -----(1);
w = T₂/cos 30° ----(2);
equating (1) and (2)
T₁/cos 60° = T₂/cos 30°;
T₁ cos 30° = T₂ cos 60°;
T₂/T₁ = cos 30°/cos 60°;
T₂/T₁ =1.73.
Therefore, option a is false since T₂ > T₁.
Option B is true since T₁ cos 30° = T₂ cos 60°.
Option C is true because the T₃ is due to the weight of the two blocks while T₄ is only due to one block.
Option D is wrong because T₁ + T₂ > T₃ by simple summation of the two forces, except by vector addition.
Answer: Option B and C are True.

The weight of the two blocks acts downwards.

Answer:

see below.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we can use the conservation of energy and conservation of momentum principles.

Conservation of energy:

The total initial energy is the rest energy of the proton and neutron, which is given by:

Ei = (mp + mn)c^2

where mp and mn are the masses of the proton and neutron, respectively, and c is the speed of light.

The total final energy is the rest energy of the deuteron plus the energy of the gamma ray, which is given by:

Ef = (md)c^2 + Eg

where md is the mass of the deuteron and Eg is the energy of the gamma ray.

According to the conservation of energy principle, the initial energy and final energy must be equal, so we have:

Ei = Ef

(mp + mn)c^2 = (md)c^2 + Eg

Conservation of momentum:

The total initial momentum is zero because the proton and neutron are at rest. The total final momentum is the momentum of the deuteron and the momentum of the gamma ray. Since the gamma ray is massless, its momentum is given by:

pg = Eg/c

where pg is the momentum of the gamma ray.

According to the conservation of momentum principle, the total final momentum must be equal to zero, so we have:

0 = pd + pg

where pd is the momentum of the deuteron.

Solving for md and pd:

From the conservation of energy equation, we can solve for md:

md = (mp + mn - Eg/c^2)/c^2

Substituting this expression into the conservation of momentum equation, we get:

pd = -pg = -Eg/c

Substituting the given values, we have:

mp = 1.6726 × 10^-27 kg mn = 1.6749 × 10^-27 kg Eg = 2.2 × 10^6 eV = 3.52 × 10^-13 J

Using c = 2.998 × 10^8 m/s, we get:

md = (1.6726 × 10^-27 kg + 1.6749 × 10^-27 kg - 3.52 × 10^-13 J/(2.998 × 10^8 m/s)^2)/(2.998 × 10^8 m/s)^2 = 3.3435 × 10^-27 kg

pd = -Eg/c = -(3.52 × 10^-13 J)/(2.998 × 10^8 m/s) = -1.1723 × 10^-21 kg·m/s

Therefore, the mass of the deuteron is 3.3435 × 10^-27 kg, and its momentum is -1.1723 × 10^-21 kg·m/s.

Answer:

9.6 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken by the tomatoes to each the ground

using h = 1/2 g t^2 

t^2 = 2h/g = 2 x 50/ 9.8 = 10.2

t = 3.2 sec 

horizontal ditance = speed x time = 3 x 3.2 = 9.6 meters

Answer:
7.25 secs.

Explanation:
First find the distance it takes to stop
s = [v^2-u^2]/2a = 0^2 - 8.7^2/2[-2.4] = 8.7^2/4.8
Next find the time it takes to go that distance , s = ut +[1/2] at^2
8.7^2/4.8 = 8.7t +[1/2] [ -2.4]t^2 , rearrange and
t^2 -[8.7/1.2]+ 8.7^2/[(1.2)(4.8)]=0 complete the square
[t - (8.7/2.4)]^2=0
t = 8.7/2.4 = 3.625 secs
At this stage the deceleration will push the object back in the direction it came from for another 3.625 secs when it will be 8.7 m/s again
Total time , T =2t = 7.25 secs.

Note:
The term differential is used in calculus to refer to an infinitesimal (infinitely small) change in some varying quantity. For example, if x is a variable, then a change in the value of x is often denoted Δx (pronounced delta x). The differential dx represents an infinitely small change in the variable x.

First sum applied the Newton's second law motion: F = ma
Force = mass* acceleration
This motion define force as the product of mass times Acceleration (vs.Velocity). Since acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time,
force=(mass*velocity)/time
such that, (mass*velocity)/time=momentum/time
Therefore we get mass*velocity=momentum
Momentum=mass*velocity
Elephant mass=6300 kg; velocity=0.11 m/s
Momentum=6300*0.11
P=693 kg (m/s)
Dolphin mass=50 kg; velocity=10.4 m/s
Momentum=50*10.4
P=520 kg (m/s)
The elephant has more momentum(P) because it is large.
