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

Look at the graph
viva [34]
Here, Carefully look at the graph.
When it is on x=10, it is approximately 10, (slightly less than 10)
Closest value would be 90, so y/x = 90/10 = 9 

So, the density of the graph would be 9 g/cm³

In short, Your Answer would be Option D

Hope this helps!

How did people studying lunar eclipses learn that Earth is round?
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Scientists have studied eclipses since ancient times. Aristotle observed that the Earth's shadow has a circular shape as it moves across the moon. He posited that this must mean the Earth was round. Another Greek astronomer named Aristarchus used a lunar eclipse to estimate the distance of the Moon and Sun from Earth
