A spring hangs vertically. A 250 g mass is attached to the spring and allowed to come to rest. The spring stretches 8 cm as the

mass comes to rest. What is the spring constant of the spring
Physics

Answer:

spring constant = 31.25N/m

Explanation:

spring constant = force/extension

mass = 250g = 0.25kg

extension = 8cm = 0.08m

force = mg = 0.25 x 10 = 2.5N

spring constant = 2.5/0.08 = 31.25N/m

Carbon dioxide in a piston-‐‐cylinder is expanded in a polytropic manner. The initialtemperature and pressure are 400 K and 550
Arisa [49]

Answer:

 q_poly = 14.55 KJ/kg

Explanation:

Given:

Initial State:

P_i = 550 KPa

T_i = 400 K

Final State:

T_f = 350 K

Constants:

R = 0.189 KJ/kgK

k = 1.289 = c_p / c_v

n = 1.2   (poly-tropic index)

Find:

Determine the heat transfer per kg in the process.

Solution:

-The heat transfer per kg of poly-tropic process is given by the expression:

                            q_poly = w_poly*(k - n)/(k-1)

- Evaluate w_poly:

                            w_poly = R*(T_f - T_i)/(1-n)

                            w_poly = 0.189*(350 - 400)/(1-1.2)

                            w_poly = 47.25 KJ/kg

-Hence,

                           q_poly = 47.25*(1.289 - 1.2)/(1.289-1)

                           q_poly = 14.55 KJ/kg

A uniform rod is 2. 0 m long and has mass 15 kg. What is most nearly the rod's mass moment of inertia?
trapecia [35]

The rod's mass moment of inertia is 5kgm².

<h3>Moment of Inertia:</h3>

The "sum of the product of mass" of each particle with the "square of its distance from the axis of rotation" is the formula for the moment of inertia.

The Parallel axis Theorem can be used to compute the moment of inertia about the end of the rod directly or to derive it from the center of mass expression. I = kg m². We can use the equation for I of a cylinder around its end if the thickness is not insignificant.

If we look at the rod we can assume that it is uniform. Therefore the linear density will remain constant and we have;

or = M / L = dm / dl

dm = (M / L) dl

I =  \int\limits^M_0 {r^2} \, dm

I = \int\limits^\frac{L}{2} _\frac{-L}{2}  {I^2 (M/L)} \, dl

Here the variable of the integration is the length (dl). The limits have changed from M to the required fraction of L.

I = \int\limits^\frac{L}{2} _\frac{-L}{2}  {I^2 (M/L)} \, dl

I = \frac{M}3L}[(\frac{L^3}{2^3}   - \frac{-L^3}{2^3} )]\\\\I = \frac{1}{12}ML^2

Mass of the rod = 15 kg

Length of the rod = 2.0 m

Moment of Inertia, I = \frac{1}{12}15 (2)^2

                               = 5 kgm²

Therefore, the moment of inertia is 5kgm².

Collision practice
NikAS [45]

Answer:

v_f=4\:\mathrm{m/s\: in\:Biff's\:direction}

Explanation:

Using the Law of Conservation of Momentum, we can set up the following equation:

m_2v_2-m_1v_1=m_fv_f, where m_1v_1 is Bruce's momentum and m_2v_2.

Plugging in given values, we get:

90\cdot7-45\cdot2=(90+45)v_f, \\v_f=\frac{540}{135}=\fbox{$4\:\mathrm{m/s}$}.

Which statement is accurate about how the aurora borealis is formed?
g100num [7]

Answer:

When the electrons jump to a higher energy state, they release energy as electromagnetic radiation, light.

Explanation:

When the solar wind gets past the magnetic field and travels towards the Earth, it runs into the atmosphere. As the protons and electrons from the solar wind hit the particles in the Earth's atmosphere, they release energy – and this is what causes the northern lights.
