You have been hired to design a spring-launched roller coaster that will carry two passengers per car. the car goes up a 13-m-high hill, then descends 20 m to the track's lowest point. you've determined that the spring can be compressed a maximum of 2.5 m and that a loaded car will have a maximum mass of 420 kg. for safety reasons, the spring constant should be 12 % larger than the minimum needed for the car to just make it over the top. a)what spring constant should you specify? b)what is the maximum speed of a 320 kg car if the spring is compressed the full amount?

increasing transnational kinetic energy. because the transnational kinetic energy formula consists of only two variables, mass and velocity, increasing one of those properties is the only way to increase an object's transnational kinetic energy. increases to mass and velocity, however, do not have the same impact.

when heated, the valance electrons increased their speed and transferred the heat from electron to electron.   i just took the test.

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
