Spring #1 has a force constant of k, and spring #2 has a force constant of 2k. Both springs are attached to the ceiling. Identic

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The ratio of the energy stored by spring #1 to that stored by spring #2 is 2:1

Explanation:

Let the weight that is hooked to two springs be w.

Spring#1:

Force constant= k

let x1 be the extension in spring#1

Therefore by balancing the forces, we get

Spring force= weight

⇒k·x1=w

⇒x1=w/k

Energy stored in a spring is given by $\frac{1}{2}kx^{2}$ where k is the force constant and x is the extension in spring.

Therefore Energy stored in spring#1 is, $\frac{1}{2}k(x1)^{2}$

⇒ $\frac{1}{2}k(\frac{w}{k})^{2}$

⇒ $\frac{w^{2}}{2k}$

Spring #2:

Force constant= 2k

let x2 be the extension in spring#2

Therefore by balancing the forces, we get

Spring force= weight

⇒2k·x2=w

⇒x2=w/2k

Therefore Energy stored in spring#2 is, $\frac{1}{2}2k(x2)^{2}$

⇒ $\frac{1}{2}2k(\frac{w}{2k})^{2}$

⇒ $\frac{w^{2}}{4k}$

∴The ratio of the energy stored by spring #1 to that stored by spring #2 is $\frac{\frac{w^{2}}{2k}}{\frac{w^{2}}{4k}}=$ 2:1

an object weighting 100g is thrown upwards from the ground at a speed of 100 m/s.where will the potential energy of the object b

Kay [80]

Answer:

333.3 m

Explanation:

Given

$m =100g\ =\ 0.1kg\\v = 100 m/s\\g = 10 m/s ^2$

Potential energy = $\frac{2}{3}\ of\ Kinetic\ energy$ ......Equation(1)

We know that

Potential energy=mgh

Kinetic energy = $\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}$

Now From the Equation(1)

$mgh=\frac{2}{3}*\frac{1}{2} mv^{2}\\ gh=\frac{v^{2} }{3} \\10 * h=\ \frac{10000}{3}\\ h=\ \frac{1000}{3} \\h=333.3\ m$

Two objects, Object A and Object B, need to be identified. Object A's index of refraction is determined to be 1.77, and Object B

Slav-nsk [51]

The correct answer is

C. Light can pass through Object B faster than it can pass through Object A.

In fact, the index of refraction of a material is defined as:

$n=\frac{c}{v}$

where c is the speed of light in vacuum and v is the speed of light in the material. Rearranging the equation, we can write the speed of light in the material as:

$v=\frac{c}{n}$

So we that, the smaller the refractive index n, the greater the speed of light in the material, v. In this problem, object B has lower refractive index than object A, so light travels faster in object B.

As an interstellar cloud of hydrogen gas shrinks in size, its rate of rotation

FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

INCREASES, BECAUSE ITS ANGULAR MOMENTUM IS CONSERVED.

Explanation: Interstellar cloud of Hydrogen is an accumulation of Hydrogen gas in the cloud.

As the Interstellar cloud of Hydrogen shrinks (reduces) in size,the rate of rotation of the shrinked Interstellar cloud Increases because its angular momentum is conserved. GASEOUS MOLECULES MAKE UP ABOUT 99% OF THE INTERSTELLAR CLOUD WITH HYDROGEN HAVING ABOUT 90% OF THE VOLUME OF GASES IN THE INTERSTELLAR CLOUD.
