A roller coaster sitting at rest has gravitational potential energy of 289,000 J at the top of the hill. At the bottom of the hill (h = 0), its velocity is 25 m/s. What is its mass? Ignore air resistance and friction.
SOLVED! (By myself)
Let's recall the formula for kinetic energy
Kinetic Energy = .5 (mass * velocity^2)
Now, while remembering PEMDAS let's plug it in
289,000 = .5 (mass * 25^2)
Let's now apply the exponent first, then multiply by the .5: Remember that you also have to multiply the mass by the same .5
25^2 = 625
289,000 = .5(mass * 625)
.5 * mass = .5m
.5 * 625 = 312.5
Now let's move all numbers except the mass variabe over to one side by dividing.
289,000/312.5 = 924.8
We're almost done here! We now need to make sure that the mass is one unit
924.8 = .5m
.5m * 2 = m
Do the same to the number!
924.8 *2 = 1849.6
1,849.6 is the answer!

Although longitudinal waves can travel through all media types what is the disadvantage of this type of wave transmission? a) he efficiency of he wave transmission is greatly diminished as the media becomes less dense b) the oscillation of one set of particles has a huge impact on neighboring particles c) particles become too close together as they bump into each other making it more likely to hit other particles down the line
