That's the "centripetal" force.  It produces the centripetal acceleration
that pulls the object away from a straight path into a bent path.

A 3 kg mass object is pushed 0.6 m into a spring with spring constant 210 N/m on a frictionless horizontal surface. Upon release
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of spring,m=3 kg

Distance moved by object,d=0.6 m

Spring constant,k=210N/m

Height,h=1.5 m

a.Work done  to compress the spring initially=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}(210)(0.6)^2=37.8J

b.

By conservation law of energy

Initial energy of spring=Kinetic energy  of object

37.8=\frac{1}{2}(3)v^2

v^2=\frac{37.8\times 2}{3}

v=\sqrt{\frac{37.8\times 2}{3}}

v=5.02 m/s

c.Work done by friction on the incline,w_{friction}=P.E-spring \;energy

W_{friction}=3\times 9.8\times 1.5-37.8=6.3 J

Earth's gravity attempts to change the velocity of all objects on Earth's surface toward _____ at a rate of 9.8 meters per secon
umka21 [38]

The answer is to the ground.


Gravity refers to the force that holds together the universe. On Earth, the gravity attempts to change the velocity of all the objects on the Earth's surface toward the ground at a rate of 9.8 meters per second squared according to Galileo.

A train goes up a hill with a 15º incline. If the train has constant speed of 22 m/s, what are the vertical and horizontal compo
Kobotan [32]
Any two-dimensional vector in cartesian (x,y) coordinates can be broken down into individual horizontal and vertical components using trigonometry. If a train goes up a hill with 15 degree incline at a speed of 22 m/s, the horizontal component is 22cos(15)=21.3 m/s and the vertical component is 22sin(15)=5.5 m/s.

a 0.0780 kg lemming runs off a 5.36 m high cliff at 4.84 m/s. what is its kinetic energy when it's 2.00 m above the ground
Blababa [14]

Answer:

KE_2 = 3.48J

Explanation:

Conservation of Energy

E_1 = E_2

PE_1+KE_1 = PE_2+KE_2

m*g*h+(1/2)m*v² = m*g*h+(1/2)m*v²

(0.0780kg)*(9.81m/s²)*(5.36m)+(.5)*(0.0780kg)*(4.84m/s)² = (0.0780kg)*(9.81m/s²)*(2m)+KE_2

4.10J+0.914J = 1.53J + KE_2

5.01J = 1.53J + KE_2

KE_2 = 3.48J
