Several springs are connected as illustrated below in (a). Knowing the individual springs stiffness k1 = 20 N/m, k2 = 30 N/m, k3

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring stiffness is

$k_{1}=20\ N/m$

$k_{2}=30\ N/m$

$k_{3}=15\ N/m$

$k_{4}=20\ N/m$

$k_{5}=35\ N/m$

According to figure,

$k_{2}$ and $k_{3}$ is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent

Using formula for series

$\dfrac{1}{k}=\dfrac{1}{k_{2}}+\dfrac{1}{k_{3}}$

$k=\dfrac{k_{2}k_{3}}{k_{2}+k_{3}}$

Put the value into the formula

$k=\dfrac{30\times15}{30+15}$

$k=10\ N/m$

k and $k_{4}$ is in parallel

We need to calculate the k'

Using formula for parallel

$k'=k+k_{4}$

Put the value into the formula

$k'=10+20$

$k'=30\ N/m$

$k_{1}$ ,k' and $k_{5}$ is in series

We need to calculate the equivalent stiffness of the spring

Using formula for series

$k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{k_{1}}+\dfrac{1}{k'}+\dfrac{1}{k_{5}}$

Put the value into the formula

$k_{eq}=\dfrac{1}{20}+\dfrac{1}{30}+\dfrac{1}{35}$

$k_{eq}=8.93\ N/m$

Hence, The equivalent stiffness of the string is 8.93 N/m.

What does the law of conservation of energy state?

VikaD [51]

The total amount of energy remains constant in an isolated system. It implies that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be change from one form to another.

On January 22, 1943, the temperature in Spearfish, South Dakota, rose from -4.0∘F∘F to 45.0∘F∘F in just 2 minutes. What was the

Margaret [11]

Answer:

The change in temperature, $\Delta T=9.45^{\circ} C$

Explanation:

Given that,

The temperature in Spearfish, South Dakota, rose from $-4^{\circ} F\ to\ 45^{\circ} F$ in just 2 minutes. We need to find the temperature change in Celsius degrees. Change in temperature is given by final temperature minus initial temperature such that,

$\Delta T=T_f-T_i\\\\\Delta T=45-(-4)\\\\\Delta T=49^{\circ}F$

The relation between degrees Celsius and degrees Fahrenheit is given by :

$F=1.8C+32$

Here, F = 49 degrees

$49=1.8C+32\\\\\Delta T=9.45^{\circ} C$

So, the change in temperature is 9.45 degree Celsius. Hence, this is the required solution.

A bullet is fired horizontally at a height of 1.3 meters and a velocity of 950 m/s. How long was the bullet in the air?

seropon [69]

Answer:

<em>The bullet was 0.52 seconds in the air.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Horizontal Motion </u>

It occurs when an object is thrown horizontally with a speed v from a height h.

The object describes a curved path ruled exclusively by gravity until it hits the ground.

To calculate the time the object takes to hit the ground, we use the following equation:

$\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2y}{g}}$

Note it doesn't depend on the initial velocity but on the height.

The bullet is fired horizontally at h=1.3 m, thus:

$\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2\cdot 1.3}{9.8}}$

$\displaystyle t=\sqrt{\frac{2.6}{9.8}}$

t = 0.52 s

The bullet was 0.52 seconds in the air.
