Answer:
Explanation:
a )
The stored elastic energy of compressed spring
= 1 / 2 k X²
= .5 x 19.6 x (.20)²
= .392 J
b ) The stored potential energy will be converted into gravitational potential energy of the block earth system when the block will ascend along the incline . So change in the gravitational potential energy will be same as stored elastic potential energy of the spring that is .392 J .
c ) Let h be the distance along the incline which the block ascends.
vertical height attained ( H ) =h sin30
= .5 h
elastic potential energy = gravitational energy
.392 = mg H
.392 = 2 x 9.8 x .5 h
h = .04 m
4 cm .

Answer:
0.75 m³/s
Explanation:
Applying,
Q = vA.................... Equation 1
Where Q = flow rate of the water, v = velocity of the water, A = area of the pipe.
From the question,
Given: v = 2.5 m/s, A = 0.3 m²
Substitute these values into equation 1
Q = 2.5(0.3)
Q = 0.75 m³/s
Hence the flow rate of water in the pipe is 0.75 m³/s
Power is the rate at which work is being done.
