A 0.5 kg air-track car is attached to the end of a horizontal spring of constant k = 20 N/m. The car is displaced 15 cm from its

equilibrium point and released.
a) What is the car's maximum speed? b) What is the car's maximum acceleration? c) What is the frequency f of the car's oscillation?
I need help please. What equations should I use for each problems?

Find the amount of work that the spring does. This can be found using the equation 1/2kx^2. Then, you must set that equal to the amount of kinetic energy the car has. This is possible thanks to the work-energy theorem.

1/2kx^2 = 1/2mv^2

Solve to find velocity. Remember, the spring is displaced .15 m, not 15!

To find the acceleration, use F = ma. The force being applied to the car is kx, and you know the mass. You do the math.

For problem C I don't know, haven't done that yet in my class. Sorry!

Answer:

Evaporation happens when a liquid substance becomes a gas. When water is heated, it evaporates. The molecules move and vibrate so quickly that they escape into the atmosphere as molecules of water vapor. ... Heat from the sun, or solar energy, powers the evaporation process.

And due to the water being hot, it added to the evaporation

Two objects, one having three times the mass of the other, are dropped from the same height in a vacuum. At the end of their fal
gogolik [260]

Answer:

Two objects will have the equal velocities but the forces on both of them will not be equal. The equal velocities of these objects are due to their equal acceleration.

Explanation:

From the newton's equation

v^{2} -u^{2} = 2as

so here we can say that velocity does not depends on the mass.

The acceleration of both objects will be same but not the forces because

F = Ma

As the force is depending on the mass so it will not be the same for both objects.

Newton’s Second law of Motion (F = ma) is one of the basis of forces and motion. How is it very similar to his First law and why
koban [17]

Answer:

First law can be deduced from second law.

Acceleration may determine the position and velocity of the system.

Explanation:

When net force is zero, the second law is 0 = ma, or the motion is at constant speed. Thus first law establishes that when there are no forces, the object moves at constant speed, so first law is explained by using the second.

If you determine the acceleration of a system, you may use calculus or kinematic equations to determine velocity and position of the particle and determine how it moves. This is very important in mechanics and engineering, for example, for spacecrafts, forensic situations, etc.

This problem has been solved!
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Option (a)

Explanation:

We will discard options that don't fit the situation:

Option b: <em>Incorrect </em>since if the driver "hits the gas" then velocity is augmenting and it's not constant.

Option c and d: <em>Incorrect </em>since the situation doesn't give us any information that could be related directly to the terrain or movement direction.

Option a: Correct. At <em>stage 1</em> we can assume the driver was going at constant speed which means acceleration is constantly zero. At <em>stage 2 </em>we can assume the driver augmented speed linearly, this is, with constant positive acceleration. At <em>stage 3 </em>we can assume the driver slowed the speed linearly, with constant negative acceleration.
