Answer:
T = 4 sec / 2 = 2 sec period of revolution
S = 2 pi R = 2 * pi * 1.75 m = 11 m
V = S / T = 11 m / 2 sec = 5.5 m/s speed of object
Answer:
The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg
Explanation:
Hi there!
Due to conservation of energy, the potential energy (PE) of the mass at a height of 3.32 m will be transformed into elastic potential energy (EPE) when it falls on the mattress:
PE = EPE
m · g · h = 1/2 k · x²
Where:
m = mass.
g = acceleration due to gravity.
h = height.
k = spring constant.
x = compression distance
The maximum compression distance is 0.1289 m, then, the maximum elastic potential energy will be the following:
EPE =1/2 k · x²
EPE = 1/2 · 65144 N/m · (0.1289 m)² = 541.2 J
Then, using the equation of gravitational potential energy:
PE = m · g · h = 541.2 J
m = 541.2 J/ g · h
m = 541.2 kg · m²/s² / (9.8 m/s² · 3.32 m)
m = 16.6 kg
The maximum mass that can fall on the mattress without exceeding the maximum compression distance is 16.6 kg.
As a reference, consider the line from the point perpendicular to the mirror.
That direction is called 'normal' to the mirror.
The ray on the right leaves the point traveling 5° to the right of the normal,
and leaves the mirror on a path that's 10° to the right of the normal.
The ray on the left leaves the point traveling 5° to the left of the normal,
and leaves the mirror on a path that's 10° to the left of the normal.
The angle between the two rays after they leave the mirror is 20° .
Frankly, Charlotte, if there were more than 5 points available for this answer,
I'd seriously consider giving you a drawing too.
Answer:
Explanation:
Angular momentum has a formula of L = mvr. Fillingin:
L = (1.0)(5.0)(1.0)
L = 5.0 kg*m/s
