tigry1 [53]

Answer:

A) The elastic potential energy stored in the spring when it is compressed 0.10 m is 0.25 J.

B) The maximum speed of the plastic sphere will be 2.2 m/s

Explanation:

Hi there!

I´ve found the complete problem on the web:

<em>A toy launcher that is used to launch small plastic spheres horizontally contains a spring with a spring constant of 50. newtons per meter. The spring is compressed a distance of 0.10 meter when the launcher is ready to launch a plastic sphere.</em>

<em>A) Determine the elastic potential energy stored in the spring when the launcher is ready to launch a plastic sphere.</em>

<em>B) The spring is released and a 0.10-kilogram plastic sphere is fired from the launcher. Calculate the maximum speed with which the plastic sphere will be launched. [Neglect friction.] [Show all work, including the equation and substitution with units.]</em>

<em />

A) The elastic potential energy (EPE) is calculated as follows:

EPE = 1/2 · k · x²

Where:

k = spring constant.

x = compressing distance

EPE = 1/2 · 50 N/m · (0.10 m)²

EPE = 0.25 J

The elastic potential energy stored in the spring when it is compressed 0.10 m is 0.25 J.

B) Since there is no friction, all the stored potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy when the spring is released. The equation of kinetic energy (KE) is the following:

KE = 1/2 · m · v²

Where:

m = mass of the sphere.

v = velocity

The kinetic energy of the sphere will be equal to the initial elastic potential energy:

KE = EPE = 1/2 · m · v²

0.25 J = 1/2 · 0.10 kg · v²

2 · 0.25 J / 0.10 kg = v²

v = 2.2 m/s

The maximum speed of the plastic sphere will be 2.2 m/s

A roller coaster starts from rest at its highest point and then descends on its (frictionless) track. Its speed is 36 m/s when i
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

its speed when its height was half that of its starting point is 25.46 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

final speed of the roller coaster, v = 36 m/s

Applying general equation of motion;

V² = U² + 2gh

where;

V is the final speed of the roller coaster

U is the initial speed of the roller coaster = 0

h is the height attained at a given velocity

36² = 0 + (2 x 9.8)h

1296 = 19.6 h

h = 1296/19.6

h = 66.1224 m

when its height was half that of its starting point, h₂ = ¹/₂ h

h₂ = ¹/₂(66.1224 m) = 33.061 m

At h = 33.061 m, V = ?

V² = U² + 2gh

V² = 0 + 2 x 9.8 x 33.061

V² = 648

V = √648

V = 25.46 m/s

Therefore, its speed when its height was half that of its starting point is 25.46 m/s
