If velocity is decreasing, then acceleration is in the direction
opposite to the velocity.
If the object is moving in the direction that you call 'positive',
then acceleration is negative.
Answer:
0.231 m/s
Explanation:
m = mass attached to the spring = 0.405 kg
k = spring constant of spring = 26.3 N/m
x₀ = initial position = 3.31 cm = 0.0331 m
x = final position = (0.5) x₀ = (0.5) (0.0331) = 0.01655 m
v₀ = initial speed = 0 m/s
v = final speed = ?
Using conservation of energy
Initial kinetic energy + initial spring energy = Final kinetic energy + final spring energy
(0.5) m v₀² + (0.5) k x₀² = (0.5) m v² + (0.5) k x²
m v₀² + k x₀² = m v² + k x²
(0.405) (0)² + (26.3) (0.0331)² = (0.405) v² + (26.3) (0.01655)²
v = 0.231 m/s
Answer:
D = 2.38 m
Explanation:
This exercise is a diffraction problem where we must be able to separate the license plate numbers, so we must use a criterion to know when two light sources are separated, let's use the Rayleigh criterion, according to this criterion two light sources are separated if The maximum diffraction of a point coincides with the first minimum of the second point, so we can use the diffraction equation for a slit
a sin θ = m λ
Where the first minimum occurs for m = 1, as in these experiments the angle is very small, we can approximate the sine to the angle
θ = λ / a
Also when we use a circular aperture instead of slits, we must use polar coordinates, which introduce a numerical constant
θ = 1.22 λ / D
Where D is the circular tightness
Let's apply this equation to our case
D = 1.22 λ / θ
To calculate the angles let's use trigonometry
tan θ = y / x
θ = tan⁻¹ y / x
θ = tan⁻¹ (4.30 10⁻² / 140 10³)
θ = tan⁻¹ (3.07 10⁻⁷)
θ = 3.07 10⁻⁷ rad
Let's calculate
D = 1.22 600 10⁻⁹ / 3.07 10⁻⁷
D = 2.38 m
In a closed primary, only voters registered with a given party can vote in that party's primary.
Answer:
John Dalton
Explanation:
Dalton's atomic theory was the foundation for a new understanding of chemical structures. He proposed that matter was constituted by indivisible and indestructible particles "atoms." He theorized that all atoms of a particular substance were equal, and the atoms of different substances had atoms of different sizes and masses.
He also proposed that all compounds of elements were combinations of elements but in a very precise ratio.
