If our person APPLIED a force of 80N pointing to the right, then that's the 'action'. It must follow, as the night follows the day, that the strength of the equal REaction is also 80N, and it points to the left because it's opposite to the action.

A 1.25 kg block is attached to a spring with spring constant 17.0 N/m . While the block is sitting at rest, a student hits it wi

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

The amplitude of the subsequent oscillations is 13.3 cm

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the block, m = 1.25 kg

spring constant, k = 17 N/m

speed of the block, v = 49 cm/s = 0.49 m/s

To determine the amplitude of the oscillation.

Apply the principle of conservation of energy;

maximum kinetic energy of the stone when hit = maximum potential energy of spring when displaced

$K.E_{max} = U_{max}\\\\\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = \frac{1}{2} kA^2\\\\where;\\\\A \ is \ the \ maximum \ displacement = amplitude \\\\mv^2 = kA^2\\\\A^2 = \frac{mv^2}{k} \\\\A = \sqrt{\frac{mv^2}{k}} \\\\A = \sqrt{\frac{1.25\ \times \ 0.49^2}{17}} \\\\A = 0.133 \ m\\\\A = 13.3 \ cm$

Therefore, the amplitude of the subsequent oscillations is 13.3 cm

Explain how a higher temperature affects the efficiency of transmitting electricity

Slav-nsk [51]

Increasing ambient temperature decreases efficiency and load carrying capacity of electric transmission lines.
Increased molecular movement in the conductors as temperature rises, increases resistance to current flow.
