A box has a mass of 10.5 kg and has compressed a spring (with a spring constant of 71.7 N/m by 0.888m. The box is released from

rest on a frictionless surface
a. How fast is the box moving when it leaves the spring?

b. After the box has left the spring it comes to a surface with
Mk = 0.234 How fare does it slide on this surface before stopping?

c. Instead of sliding to a stop it only goes 0.432 m on the rough surface and then returns to a frictionless surface. How fast is it moving?

Answer:

a. To find how fast it moves when it leaves the spring we use

1/2kx²= 1/2 mv²,

So making speed v subject

v=x√(k/m),

v= 0.888√(71.7/10.5) = 2.32 m/s

B) how far it goes after released

We know that

Work done = change in kinetic energy

So

(1/2 mv²0)= F x D,

F= mu x N,

But N=mg , F=0.234 x 10.5x 9.81= 24.10

So

0.5x 10.5 x 2.32 x 2.32= D x 24.10,

So

D= 1.17 m

C. Now using the work energy theorm:

0.5(mv1²- mv2²) =F xD = mu. mg x D

V2=√(V1²- 2gmu) =

√(2.32x 2.32-2 x 0.432 x 9.81 x 0.234) =

V2=1.8m/s

A uniform electric field with a magnitude of 5750 N/C points in the positive x direction. Find the change in electric potential

castortr0y [4]

Explanation:

Given that,

Electric field = 5750 N/C

Charge $q=+10.5\times10^{-6}\ C$

Distance = 5.50 cm

(a). When the charge is moved in the positive x- direction

We need to calculate the change in electric potential energy

Using formula of electric potential energy

$\Delta U=-W$

$\Delta U=-F\cdot d$

$\Delta U=-q(E\cdot d)$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta U=-10.5\times10^{-6}\times5750\times5.50\times10^{-2}$

$\Delta U=-3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

The change in electric potential energy is $-3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

(b). When the charge is moved in the negative x- direction

We need to calculate the change in electric potential energy

Using formula of electric potential energy

$\Delta U=-W$

$\Delta U=-F\cdot (-d)$

$\Delta U=-q(E\cdot (-d))$

Put the value into the formula

$\Delta U=-10.5\times10^{-6}\times5750\times(-5.50\times10^{-2})$

$\Delta U=3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

The change in electric potential energy is $3.32\times10^{-3}\ J$

Hence, This is the required solution.

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

The formula for the electric field is Force (N)/charge(Coulombs). The electric field direction is defined by the direction of the force felt by a positive charge.

A skater extends her arms, holding a 2 kg mass in each hand. She is rotating about a vertical axis at a given rate. She brings h

Usimov [2.4K]

Explanation:

It is known that relation between torque and angular acceleration is as follows.

$\tau = I \times \alpha$

and, I = $\sum mr^{2}$

So, $I_{1} = 2 kg \times (1 m)^{2} + 2 kg \times (1 m)^{2}$

= 4 $kg m^{2}$

$\tau_{1} = 4 kg m^{2} \times \alpha_{1}$

$\tau_{2} = I_{2} \alpha_{2}$

So, $I_{2} = 2 kg \times (0.5 m)^{2} + 2 kg \times (0.5 m)^{2}$

= 1 $kg m^{2}$

as $\tau_{2} = I_{2} \alpha_{2}$

= $1 kg m^{2} \times \alpha_{2}$

Hence, $\tau_{1} = \tau_{2}$

$4 \alpha_{1} = \alpha_{2}$

$\alpha_{1} = \frac{1}{4} \alpha_{2}$

Thus, we can conclude that the new rotation is $\frac{1}{4}$ times that of the first rotation rate.
