A dart gun consists of a horizontal spring with k = 52 Newtons/m that is compressed 43

Answer:

299 m/s^2

Explanation:

When a spring is compressed, the force exerted by the spring is given by:

F=kx

where

k is the spring constant

x is the compression of the spring

In this problem we have:

k = 52 N/m is the spring constant

x = 43 cm = 0.43 m is the compression

Therefore, the force exerted by the spring on the dart is

F=(52)(0.43)=22.4 N

Now we can apply Newton' second law of motion to calculate the acceleration of the dart:

F=ma

where

F = 22.4 N is the force exerted on the dart by the spring

m = 75 g = 0.075 kg is the mass of the dart

a is its acceleration

Solving for a,

a=\frac{F}{m}=\frac{22.4}{0.075}=299 m/s^2

Paraphin [41]

Answer:

 c = 5 m

Explanation:

this exercise you want to divide the rectangular room into two triangular rooms

                 

the area of ​​triangles is

           A = ½ base height

           A = ½ 4 3

          A = 6 m²

the length of the curtain can be found using the Pythagorean theorem

           c² = b² + a²

           c = √ (4² + 3²)

           c = 5 m

this is the length of the curtain

When a 25-kg crate is pushed across a frictionless horizontal floor with a force of 200 N, directed 20 below the horizontal, th
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Option E is correct 310N

Explanation:

Given that the force used to push the crate is F = 200N

The force directed 20° below the horizontal

Mass of crate is m = 25kg

Weight of the crate can be determine using

W = mg

g is gravitational constant =9.8m/s²

W = 25×9.8

W = 245 N

Check attachment. For free body diagram and better understanding

Using newton second law along the vertical axis since we want to find the normal force

ΣFy = m•ay

ay = 0, since the body is not moving in the vertical or y direction

N—W—F•Sin20 = 0

N = W+F•Sin20

N = 245+ 200Sin20

N = 245 + 68.4

N = 313.4 N

The normal force is approximately 310 N to the nearest ten

evablogger [386]

Given the time, the final velocity and the acceleration, we can calculate the initial velocity using the kinematic equation A:

v = v_o + a \Delta t

A skateboarder flies horizontally off a cement planter. After a time of 3 seconds (Δt), he lands with a final velocity (v) of −4.5 m/s. Assuming the acceleration is -9.8 m/s² (a), we can calculate the initial velocity of the skateboarder (v₀) using the kinematic equation A.

v = v_o + a \Delta t\\\\v_o = v - a \Delta t = (-4.5 m/s) - (-9.8 m/s^{2} ) \times 3 s = 24.9 m/s

Given the time, the final velocity and the acceleration, we can calculate the initial velocity using the kinematic equation A:

v = v_o + a \Delta t
