The initial compression of the spring is determined as 0.54 m.

<h3>What is the compression of the spring?</h3>

The compression of the spring is determined by applying the principle of conservation of linear momentum as follows;

E = U

mgh = ¹/₂kx²

2mgh = kx²

x² = 2mgh/k

x  = √(2mgh/k)

where;

  • m is the mass of the projetcile
  • h is the height
  • k is the spring constant = 0.07 N/cm = 7 N/m
  • x is the compression of the spring

x = √(2 x 0.021 x 9.8 x 5)/7)

x = 0.54 m

A(n) ___ object is not electrically neutral.
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

No, there are always protons, neutrons, and electrons. When an object is neutral, it means the positive and negative charges sum to zero (are equal and opposite). NO, if an object has no net charge it simply means that the amount of positive and negative charges (protons and neutrons) are the same.

(m = 4.0 kg) the cockroach rides on the rim (at radius R) of a disk (M = 6.0 kg) that turns about its center like a merry-go-rou
kvasek [131]

Answer:

ω' = 2.5 rad/s

Explanation:

mass of cockroach, m = 4 kg

mass of disk, M = 6 kg

Radius of disc= R

initial angular velocity, ω = 2 rad/s

Let the final angular velocity is ω'

As no external torque is applied, so the angular momentum is constant.

Angular momentum = Moment of inertia x angular velocity

I ω = I' ω'

\frac{1}{2}\left ( M+m \right )R^{2}\times {2} = \left (\frac{1}{2}MR^{2}+m(0.5R)^{2})  \right )\omega '

10R^{2} = 4R^{2}\omega '

ω' = 2.5 rad/s
