A 200.0 g block rests on a frictionless, horizontal surface. It is pressed against a horizontal spring with spring constant 4500

.0 N/m (assume that the spring is massless). The block is held in position such that the spring is compressed 4.00 cm shorter than its undisturbed length. The block is suddenly released and allowed to slide away on the frictionless surface. Find the speed the block will be traveling when it leaves the spring.

Answer:

 6 m/s

Explanation:

Given that :

mass of the block   m =  200.0 g  = 200 × 10⁻³ kg

the horizontal spring constant   k  =  4500.0 N/m

position of the block (distance x) = 4.00 cm  = 0.04 m

To determine the speed the block will be traveling when it leaves the spring; we applying the  work done on the spring as it is stretched (or compressed) with the kinetic energy.

i.e \frac{1}{2} kx^2  = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

kx^2 = mv^2

4500* 0.04^2 = 200*10^{-3} *v^2

7.2 =200*10^{-3}*v^{2}

v^{2}   =\frac{7.2}{200*10^{-3}}

v   =\sqrt{\frac{7.2}{200*10^{-3}}}

v = 6 m/s

Hence,the speed the block will be traveling when it leaves the spring is  6 m/s

What is hydraulic pressure​
Gnesinka [82]

The total thrust, expressed in pounds or tons, that the hydraulic-feed mechanism on a drill can impose on a drill string; also, the pressure of the fluid within the hydraulic cylinders, generally expressed in pounds per square inch. Ref: Long.

Hydraulic pressure is the force imparted per unit area of a liquid on the surfaces which it has contact. Liquids are incompressible, and as such, when a load acts

Answer:

nice to help you

Explanation:

If for any reason the Sun shrank smaller than the Earth, this shrunken Sun wouldn't have the mass to create fusion and would burn out completely. Our solar system would lose its only star. ... Earth's mass would be at least 333,000 times bigger than it is now. Imagine the gravity that planet would have.

Assuming the earth is a uniform sphere of mass M and radius R, show that the acceleration of fall at the earth's surface is give
Keith_Richards [23]

Explanation:

The weight of an object on the surface of the earth is equal to the gravitational force exerted by the earth on the object.

W=F_G

mg = G \dfrac{mM}{R^2}

which gives us an expression for the acceleration due to gravity <em>g</em> as

g = G\dfrac{M}{R^2}

At a height h = R, the radius of a satellite's orbit is 2R. Then the acceleration due to gravity g_h at this height is

mg_h = G \dfrac{mM}{(2R)^2}= G \dfrac{mM}{4R^2}

Simplifying this, we get

g_h= G \dfrac{M}{4R^2} = \dfrac{1}{4} \left(G \dfrac{M}{R^2} \right) = \dfrac{1}{4}g
