a. The restoring force in the spring has magnitude

F[spring] = k (0.79 m)

which counters the weight of the mass,

F[weight] = (0.46 kg) g = 4.508 N

so that by Newton's second law,

F[spring] - F[weight] = 0 ⇒ k = (4.508 N) / (0.79 m) ≈ 5.7 N/m

b. Using the same equation as before, we now have

F[weight] = (0.75 kg) g = 7.35 N

so that

(5.7 N/m) x - 7.35 N = 0 ⇒ x = (7.35 N) / (5.7 N/m) ≈ 1.3 m

A current of 1.41 A in a long, straight wire produces a magnetic field of 5.61 uT at a certain distance from the wire. Find

pshichka [43]

Answer:

0.050 m

Explanation:

The strength of the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying wire is given by

$B=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi r}$

where

$\mu_0=4\pi \cdot 10^{-7} H/m$ is the vacuum permeability

I is the current in the wire

r is the distance from the wire

And the magnetic field around the wire forms concentric circles, and it is tangential to the circles.

In this problem, we have:

$I=1.41 A$ (current in the wire)

$B=5.61\mu T=5.61\cdot 10^{-6} T$ (strength of magnetic field)

Solving for r, we find the distance from the wire:

$r=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2\pi B}=\frac{(4\pi \cdot 10^{-7})(1.41)}{2\pi (5.61\cdot 10^{-6})}=0.050 m$

A block of mass m = 1.00 kg is attached to a spring of force constant k = 500 N/m. The block is pulled to a position xi= 5.00 cm

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

The speed of the block is 4.96 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that.

Mass of block = 1.00 kg

Spring constant = 500 N/m

Position $x_{i}=5.00\ cm$

Coefficient of friction = 0.350

(A). We need to calculate the speed the block has as it passes through equilibrium if the horizontal surface is friction less

Using formula of kinetic energy and potential energy

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2-\mu mgx$

Put the value into the formula

$\dfrac{1}{2}\times1.00\times v^2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times500\times(5.00\times10^{-2})-0.350\times1.00\times9.8\times5.00\times10^{-2}$

$v^2=\dfrac{2\times12.3285}{1.00}$

$v^2=24.657$

$v=4.96\ m/s$

Hence, The speed of the block is 4.96 m/s.

In some circumstances, it is useful to look at the linear velocity of a point on the blade. The linear velocity of a point in un

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

$v=wr$

Explanation:

Tangent and Angular Velocities

In the uniform circular motion, an object describes the same angles in the same times. If $\theta$ is the angle formed by the trajectory of the object in a time t, then its angular velocity is

$\displaystyle w=\frac{\theta}{t}$

if $\theta$ is expressed in radians and t in seconds the units of w is rad/s. If the circular motion is uniform, the object forms an angle $2\theta$ in 2t, or $3\theta$ in 3t, etc. Thus the angular velocity is constant.

The magnitude of the tangent or linear velocity is computed as the ratio between the arc length and the time taken to travel that distance:

$\displaystyle v=\frac{\theta r}{t}$

Replacing the formula for w, we have

$\boxed{ v=wr}$
