A glider of mass 0.170 kg moves on a horizontal frictionless air track. It is permanently attached to one end of a massless hori

zontal spring, which has a force constant of 13.0 N/m both for extension and for compression. The other end of the spring is fixed. The glider is moved to compress the spring by 0.180 m and then released from rest.(a) Calculate the speed of the glider at the point where it has moved 0.180 m from its starting point, so that the spring is momentarily exerting no force.m/s(b) Calculate the speed of the glider at the point where it has moved 0.250 m from its starting point.m/s

Answer:

Answer:

a.  1.594 m/s = v

b. 1.274 m/s = v

Explanation:

A) First calculate the potential energy stored in the spring when it is compressed by 0.180 m...

U = 1/2 kx²

Where U is potential energy (in joules), k is the spring constant (in newtons per meter) and x is the compression (in meters)

U = 1/2(13.0 N/m)(0.180 m)² = 0.2106 J

So when the spring passes through the rest position, all of its potential energy will have been converted into kinetic energy.  K = 1/2 mv².

 0.2106 J  = 1/2(0.170 kg kg)v²

0.2106 J  = (0.0850 kg)v²

2.808m²/s² = v²

1.594 m/s = v

(B)  When the spring is 0.250 m from its starting point, it is 0.250 m - 0.180 m = 0.070 m past the equilibrium point.  The spring has begun to remove kinetic energy from the glider and convert it back into potential.  The potential energy stored in the spring is:

U = 1/2 kx² = 1/2(13.0 N/m)(0.070 m)² = 0.031J

Which means the glider now has only 0.2106 J  - 0.031J = 0.1796 J of kinetic energy remaining.

K = 1/2 mv²

0.1796 J = 1/2(0.170 kg)v²

0.138 J = (0.0850 kg)v²

1.623 m²/s² = v²

1.274 m/s = v

What is the maximum value of the magnetic field at a<br> distance2.5m from a 100-W light bulb?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to the intensity included as the power transferred per unit area, where the area is the perpendicular plane in the direction of energy propagation.

Since the propagation occurs in an area of spherical figure we will have to

I = \frac{P}{A}

I = \frac{P}{4\pi r^2}

Replacing with the given power of the Bulb of 100W and the radius of 2.5m we have that

I = \frac{100}{4\pi (2.5)^2}

I = 1.2738W/m^2

The relation between intensity I and E_{max}

I = \frac{E_max^2}{2\mu_0 c}

Here,

\mu_0 = Permeability constant

c = Speed of light

Rearranging for the Maximum Energy and substituting we have then,

E_{max}^2 = 2I\mu_0 c

E_{max}=\sqrt{2I\mu_0 c }

E_{max} = 2(1.2738)(4\pi*10^{-7})(3*10^8)

E_{max} = 30.982 V/m

Finally the maximum magnetic field is given as the change in the Energy per light speed, that is,

B_{max} = \frac{E_{max}}{c}

B_{max} = \frac{30.982 V /m}{3*10^8}

B_{max} = 1.03275 *10{-7} T

Therefore the maximum value of the magnetic field is B_{max} = 1.03275 *10{-7} T

The altitude of the International Space Station ttt minutes after its perigee (closest point), in kilometers, is given by \qquad
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

T = 92.8 min

Explanation:

Given:

The altitude of the International Space Station t minutes after its perigee (closest point), in kilometers, is given by:

                               A(t) = 415 - sin(\frac{2*\pi (t+23.2)}{92.8})

Find:

- How long does the International Space Station take to orbit the earth? Give an exact answer.

Solution:

- Using the the expression given we can extract the angular speed of the International Space Station orbit:

                                 A(t) = 415 - sin({\frac{2*\pi*t }{92.8} + \frac{23.2*2*\pi }{92.8} )

- Where the coefficient of t is angular speed of orbit w = 2*p / 92.8

- We know that the relation between angular speed w and time period T of an orbit is related by:

                                T = 2*p / w

                                T = 2*p / (2*p / 92.8)

Hence,                     T = 92.8 min

MissTica

Answer: Tsunami.

Explanation :

Tsunami is the result of a sudden vertical offset in the ocean floor and is most often the result of plate movement on the ocean floor.

Tsunami is caused due to the displacement of a large volume of water like in an ocean. It consists of a series of waves. It destroys coastlines and coastal settlements. It is also known as a tidal wave.

So, the correct option is (b) Tsunami.
