A spring of force constant 285.0 N/m and unstretched length 0.230 m is stretched by two forces, pulling in opposite directions a

t opposite ends of the spring, that increase to 15.0 N.How long will the spring now be, and how much work was required to stretch it that distance?

Answer: W = 0.3853 J, e = 0.052 m

Explanation: Given that,

K =285.0N/M , L = 0.230m , F = 15N , e = ?

F = Ke

15 = 285 × e

e = 15÷ 285

e =0.052 m

e + L = 0.052 + 0.230

= 0.282m ( spring new length )

Work needed to stretch the spring

W = 1/2ke2

W = 1/2 × 285 x 0.052 × 0.052

W = 0.3853 J

balu736 [363]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to momentum, momentum and Force. Mathematically the Impulse can be described as

I = F*t

Where,

F= Force

t= time

At the same time the moment can be described as a function of mass and velocity, that is

P = m\Delta v \rightarrow P=m(v_1-v_2)

Where,

m = mass

v = Velocity

From equilibrium the impulse is equal to the momentum, therefore

I = p

Ft = m(v_1-v_2)

PART A) Since the body ends at rest, we have the final speed is zero, so the momentum would be

p=m(v_1-v_2)

p = 75*0.15

p = 1125Kg\cdot m/s

Therefore the magnitude of the person's impulse is 1125Kg.m/s

PART B) From the equation obtained previously we have that the Force would be:

Ft = m(v_1-v_2)

F(0.025)= 1125

F= 45000N

Therefore the magnitude of the average force the airbag exerts on the person is 45000N

The average force of a baseball is 18.9 N . It’s mass is 0.145kg fine the acceleration in m/s^2
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

the acceleration is 130.3m/s²

Explanation:

Given data

Force F= 18.9N

Mass of ball m= 0.145kg

Acceleration a=?

Applying the Newton's second law of motion

"The rate of change of momentum of a body is proportional to the external force".

F=ma

a= F/m

a= 18.9/0.142

a= 130.3m/s²

A street light is mounted at the top of a 15-ft-tall pole. A man 6 ft tall walks away from the pole with a speed of 4 ft/s along
babymother [125]

Answer:

Explanation:

height of pole = 15 ft

height of man = 6 ft

Let the length of shadow is y .

According to the diagram

Let at any time the distance of man is x.

The two triangles are similar

\frac{y-x}{y}=\frac{6}{15}

15 y - 15 x = 6 y

9 y = 15 x

y=\frac{5}{3}x

Differentiate with respect to time.

\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{5}{3}\frac{dx}{dt}

As given, dx/dt = 4 ft/s

\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{5}{3}\times 4

\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{20}{3} ft/s
