A toy gun uses a spring to project a 6.4 g soft rubber sphere horizontally. The spring constant is 9.0 N/m, the barrel of the gu

n is 12.4 cm long, and a constant frictional force of 0.028 N exists between barrel and projectile. With what speed does the projectile leave the barrel if the spring was compressed 5.0 cm for this launch? (Assume the projectile is in contact with the barrel for the full 12.4 cm.)

Answer:

1.584 m/s.

Explanation:

Using,

Ek= Ws-Wf...................... Equation 1

Where Wf = work done against friction, Ek = kinetic energy of the rubber, Ws = work done by the spring.

1/2mv² = 1/2ke²-F'd................ Equation 2

Where m = mass of the rubber, v = velocity of the rubber, k = force constant of the spring, e = compression, F' = force of friction, d = distance/ length of contact.

make v the subject of the equation

v = √[2(1/2ke²-F'd)/m].................... Equation 3

Given: k = 9 N/m. e = 5 cm = 0.05 m, F' = 0.028 N, d = 12.4 cm = 0.124 m, m = 6.4 g = 0.0064 kg

Substitute into equation 3

v = √[2(1/2×9×0.05²-0.026×0.124)/0.0064]

v = √(2[0.01125-0.003224]/0.0064)

v = √2.508125

v = 1.584 m/s.

A spherical conductor is inside a uniform electric field with a magnitude of 1000 N/C to the right. What is the magnitude and di
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

1.-E=1000N/C to the LEFT

2.-The electric field inside a conductor in electrostatic state is always zero (conductor proprieties).

3.-The voltmeter read 0V as differential voltage between two points from the conductor

Explanation:

1.The electric field inside the conductor must be zero (conductor proprieties). Then the charges create a electric field equal an opposite to the external electric field. In other words E=1000N/C to the LEFT

2. The electric field inside a conductor in electrostatic state is always zero. As shown in the figure the electric field induced by the charges in the sphere surface cancelled the EXTERN electric field.

3.If the Electric field inside the conductor is zero, that means that the Voltage in the hole conductor is constant (conductor proprieties). In other words the the voltmeter read 0v as differential voltage between two points from the conductor.

A geosynchronous satellite orbits Mars (mass = 6.42 x 1023 kg) once every Martian day, 88640 s. At what radius does it orbit?
Schach [20]

Answer:

angular speed ω = 2PI / T rad/sec  

ω^2*r = M*G/r^2

r = ³√ M*G/ω^2 = ³√6.42*10^23*6.67*10^-11*88640^2/39.5 = 2.04*10^7 m
