Derive an Expression for elastic potential energy of a spring

Physics
1 answer:
Aloiza [94]1 year ago
8 0

Answer:

spring force = -K × x , where X is elongation or compression in the spring. ( -) sigh shows that the spring force is opposite to the applied force to cause extension.

Potential energy = work done by spring force = integration of Force.

integrate the force (-K × x) over distance 0 to x .

U = 1/2 K × X^2 ( for elongation)

U = -1/2 × K × X^2 ( for compression)

Elena L [17]

Answer:

150 Nm

Explanation:

Unit conversion:

5 cm = 0.05 m

8 cm = 0.08 m

The torque generated by such force would be the product of the force by the muscles and the moment arm of that force.

T = FR

Where T is the torque (Nm), F = 3000 N is the force and R = 0.05 m is the moment arm

T = 3000*0.05 = 150 Nm

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

a) v = 0.0496 m / s , b)  v = 0.0957 m / s

Explanation:

a) in this case we have an inelastic collision,

To solve these problems, the most important thing is to define the system formed by all the bodies, so that the forces during the crash have been internal and the amount of movement is conserved.

Therefore the system is made up of the ball and the player

initial instant. Before catching the ball

       p₀ = m v₁

final moment. After you have grabbed the ball

      p_{f} = (m + M) v

the moment is preserved

       po = p_{f}

       m v₁ = (m + M) v

       v = m / (m + M) v₁

let's calculate

      v = 0.405 / (0.405 + 69)   8.50

      v = 0.0496 m / s

in the same direction that the ball takes

b) In this case the ball bounces with a speed of V₂ = -7.80 m / s, the negative sign is because it is going in opposite directions

let's write the moment in two times

initial instant. Before the crash

       p₀ = m v₁

try end. Right after the crash

       p_{f} = m v₂ + M v

the moment is preserved

       p₀ = p_{f}

        m v₁ = m v₂ + M v

       v = m (v₁ -v₂) / M

       v = 0.405 /69   (8.50 - (7.80))

       v = 0.0957 m / s

in the initial direction of the ball

Help for 50 points thank you
Korolek [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

A mechanical wave is a wave that is an oscillation of matter, and therefore transfers energy through a medium. ... Therefore, the oscillating material does not move far from its initial equilibrium position. Mechanical waves transport energy. This energy propagates in the same direction as the wave.
