Answer:
281.25 J
Explanation:
We are told that the two objects with masses m and 3m.
Also that energy stored in the spring is 375 joules.
Now, initially the centre of mass of the system took place at rest, it means v1 = v and v2 = v/3
Thus, from principle of conservation of energy, we have;
½mv² + ½(3m)(v/3)² = 375J
(m + 3m/9)½v² = 375
(4/3)m × ½v² = 375
Multiply both sides by ¾ to get;
½mv² = 375 × ¾
½mv² = 281.25 J
Therefore, energy of lighter body is 281.25 J
That would be false hope this helps
I believe the last time the dead bird count was updated (12/16/16), there is a count of 1,350 dead birds. There is 1,350 dead birds from 33 countries have tested positive for WNV in 2016.
Answer:
a)W=8.333lbf.ft
b)W=0.0107 Btu.
Explanation:
<u>Complete question</u>
The force F required to compress a spring a distance x is given by F– F0 = kx where k is the spring constant and F0 is the preload. Determine the work required to compress a spring whose spring constant is k= 200 lbf/in a distance of one inch starting from its free length where F0 = 0 lbf. Express your answer in both lbf-ft and Btu.
Solution
Preload = F₀=0 lbf
Spring constant k= 200 lbf/in
Initial length of spring x₁=0
Final length of spring x₂= 1 in
At any point, the force during deflection of a spring is given by;
F= F₀× kx where F₀ initial force, k is spring constant and x is the deflection from original point of the spring.

Change to lbf.ft by dividing the value by 12 because 1ft=12 in
100/12 = 8.333 lbf.ft
work required to compress the spring, W=8.333lbf.ft
The work required to compress the spring in Btu will be;
1 Btu= 778 lbf.ft
?= 8.333 lbf.ft----------------cross multiply
(8.333*1)/ 778 =0.0107 Btu.
