Answer:
k = 0.5 MN/m
Explanation:
Mass of the railcar, m = 5000 kg
Speed of the rail car, v = 1 m/s
The Kinetic energy(KE) of the railcar is given by the equation:
KE = 0.5 mv²
KE = 0.5 * 5000 * 1²
KE = 2500 J
The spring's compression, x = 0.1 m
The potential energy(PE) stored in the spring is given by the equation:
PE = 0.5kx²
PE = 0.5 * k * 0.1²
PE = 0.005k
According to the principle of energy conservation, Kinetic energy of the railcar equals the potential energy stored in the spring
KE = PE
2500 = 0.005k
k = 2500/0.005
k = 500000 N/m
k = 0.5 MN/m
C. 192 m/s is the answer
Ur welcome have a great day
Answer:
C
Explanation:
An applied force is a force that is applied to an object by a person or another object. If a person is pushing a desk across the room, then there is an applied force acting upon the object. The applied force is the force exerted on the desk by the person.
