A 2.0-kg block sliding on a frictionless, horizontal surface is attached to one end of a horizontal spring (k = 600 N/m) which h

as its other end fixed. The speed of the block when the spring is extended 20 cm is equal to 3.0 m/s. What is the maximum speed of this block as it oscillates?

Answer:

Maximum speed of the block, v_{max} = 4.58 m/s

Explanation:

Mass of the block, m = 2.0 kg

Spring constant, k = 600 N/m

Spring extension, x = 20 cm = 0.2 m

Speed of the block due to the extension, v = 3.0 m/s

First, Potential energy, PE stored in the spring:

PE = 0.5 kx²

PE = 0.5 * 600 * 0.2²

PE = 12 J

Calculate the kinetic energy of the block due to the extension:

KE_x = 0.5 mv^2\\KE_x = 0.5 * 2 * 3^2\\KE_x = 9 J

The maximum Kinetic Energy of the block will be:

KE_{max} = 0.5 m v_{max}^2\\KE_{max} = 0.5 * 2 * v_{max}^2\\KE_{max} =  v_{max}^2

KE_{max} = KE_x + PE\\v_{max}^2 = 9 + 12\\ v_{max}^2 = 21\\ v_{max} = \sqrt{21} \\ v_{max} = 4.58 m/s

What is the velocity of a beam of electrons that goes undeflected when passing through perpendicular electric and magnetic field
goldenfox [79]
F = qE + qV × B
where force F, electric field E, velocity V, and magnetic field B are vectors and the × operator is the vector cross product. If the electron remains undeflected, then F = 0 and E = -V × B
which means that |V| = |E| / |B| and the vectors must have the proper geometrical relationship. I therefore get
|V| = 8.8e3 / 3.7e-3
= 2.4e6 m/sec
Acceleration a = V²/r, where r is the radius of curvature.
a = F/m, where m is the mass of an electron,
so qVB/m = V²/r.
Solving for r yields
r = mV/qB
= 9.11e-31 kg * 2.37e6 m/sec / (1.60e-19 coul * 3.7e-3 T)
= 3.65e-3 m

A submarine is stranded on the bottom of the ocean with its hatch 21.0 m below the surface. calculate the force (in n) needed to
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

28,400 N

Explanation:

Let's start by calculating the pressure that acts on the upper surface of the hatch. It is given by the sum of the atmospheric pressure and the pressure due to the columb of water, which is given by Stevin's law:

p_{top} = p_{atm} + \rho g h=1.013\cdot 10^5 Pa + (1000 kg/m^3)(9.8 m/s^2)(21.0 m)=3.071 \cdot 10^5 Pa

On the lower part of the hatch, there is a pressure equal to

p_{bot}=p_{atm}=1.013\cdot 10^5 Pa

So, the net pressure acting on the hatch is

p=p_{top}-p_{bot}=3.071 \cdot 10^5 Pa - 1.013\cdot 10^5 Pa=2.058 \cdot 10^5 Pa

which acts from above.

The area of the hatch is given by:

A=\pi r^2 = \pi (\frac{0.420 m}{2})^2=0.138 m^2

So, the force needed to open the hatch from the inside is equal to the pressure multiplied by the area of the hatch:

F=pA=(2.058\cdot 10^5 Pa)(0.138 m^2)=28,400 N
