Answer:
0.011 m.
Explanation:
Energy stored in the spring = Energy of the projectile.
1/2ke² = mgh ................ Equation 1
Where k = spring constant, e = extension or compression, m = mass of the projectile, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height.
make e the subject of the equation
e = √(2mgh/k)............................. Equation 2
Given: k = 12 N/cm = 1200 N/m, m = 15 g = 0.015 kg, h = 5.0 m
Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute into equation 2
e = √(2×0.015×5/1200)
e = √(0.15/1200)
e = √(0.000125)
e = 0.011 m.
Answer:
60000 J
Explanation:
Assuming the force is applied parallel to the displacement of the elephant, the work done to move it across the floor is
where
F = 2000 N is the force applied
d = 30 m is the displacement of the elephant
Substituting the numbers into the formula, we find
Answer:
Answer: The Sun, the Moon, the planets, and the stars all rise in the east and set in the west. And that's because Earth spins -- toward the east. ... Earth rotates or spins toward the east, and that's why the Sun, Moon, planets, and stars all rise in the east and make their way westward across the sky.
