Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B, the highest peak. At the highest peak of the roller coaster, the car reaches its maximum height above the ground. This point represents the car's greatest potential energy because it has the highest potential to do work due to its elevated position. The potential energy is directly proportional to the height of an object, so the highest point on the roller coaster track corresponds to the car's greatest potential energy. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because potential energy is highest at the peak due to its elevated position, not at the start of the ride, the lowest trough, or the end of the ride.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The work done by Amanda pushing the lawnmower is calculated by multiplying the force applied (100 N) by the distance over which the force is applied (the total distance mowed). Since Amanda mows 20 rows, each measuring 30 meters, the total distance mowed is 20 rows x 30 meters/row = 600 meters. Therefore, the work done is 100 N x 600 m = 60,000 Nâ‹…m. Option A and B are incorrect as they do not account for the total distance mowed. Option D is incorrect as the work done can be accurately calculated based on the information provided.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The speed of sound (v) can be calculated using the formula: v = f λ, where f is the frequency and λ is the wavelength. Given that the speed of sound is 343 m/s and the wavelength is 5 m, we can rearrange the formula to solve for frequency: f = v / λ = 343 / 5 = 68.6 Hz. Therefore, the correct frequency is 68.6 Hz. Choices A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not result from the correct calculation based on the given values.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The boundary layer effect occurs when a thin layer of fluid near the surface of a solid adheres to it due to viscosity. This layer experiences a velocity gradient as the fluid farther from the surface moves faster, while the fluid closest to the surface is nearly stationary.

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The diameter of a loop is calculated by multiplying the radius by 2. Since the radius is 6 meters, the diameter is 6 2 = 12 meters. Therefore, the correct answer is 12 meters. Choice A (6 m) is the radius, not the diameter. Choices C (18 m) and D (36 m) are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct calculation for determining the diameter of a loop.
