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

ella [17]

Answer:

1.97 seconds

Explanation:

t = Time taken

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

s = Displacement

a = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2\\\Rightarrow 21=4.5t+\frac{1}{2}\times -9.8\times t^2\\\Rightarrow 21=-4.5t-4.9t^2\\\Rightarrow 4.9t^2+4.5t-28=0\\\Rightarrow 49t^2+45t-280=0

Solving the above equation we get

t=\frac{-45+\sqrt{45^2-4\cdot \:49\left(-280\right)}}{2\cdot \:49}, \frac{-45-\sqrt{45^2-4\cdot \:49\left(-280\right)}}{2\cdot \:49}\\\Rightarrow t=1.97, -2.89

So, the time the package was in the air is 1.97 seconds

What are the names of the 4 types of fronts? How are they created?
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

Stationary Front, warm front, cold front, Occluded Front.

Explanation:

Stationary Front. When the surface position of a front does not change (when two air masses are unable to push against each other; a draw), a stationary front is formed.

cold front is the leading edge of a cooler mass of air at ground level that replaces a warmer mass of air and lies within a pronounced surface trough of low pressure. It often forms behind an extratropical cyclone (to the west in the Northern Hemisphere, to the east in the Southern), at the leading edge of its cold air advection pattern—known as the cyclone's dry "conveyor belt" flow. Temperature differences across the boundary can exceed 30 °C (86 °F) from one side to the other. When enough moisture is present, rain can occur along the boundary. If there is significant instability along the boundary, a narrow line of thunderstorms can form along the frontal zone. If instability is weak, a broad shield of rain can move in behind the front, and evaporative cooling of the rain can increase the temperature difference across the front. Cold fronts are stronger in the fall and spring transition seasons and weakest during the summer.

A warm front is a density discontinuity located at the leading edge of a homogeneous warm air mass, and is typically located on the equator-facing edge of an isotherm gradient. Warm fronts lie within broader troughs of low pressure than cold fronts, and move more slowly than the cold fronts which usually follow because cold air is denser and less easy to remove from the Earth's surface. This also forces temperature differences across warm fronts to be broader in scale. Clouds ahead of the warm front are mostly stratiform, and rainfall gradually increases as the front approaches. Fog can also occur preceding a warm frontal passage. Clearing and warming is usually rapid after frontal passage. If the warm air mass is unstable, thunderstorms may be embedded among the stratiform clouds ahead of the front, and after frontal passage thundershowers may continue. On weather maps, the surface location of a warm front is marked with a red line of semicircles pointing in the direction of travel.

In meteorology, an occluded front is a weather front formed during the process of cyclogenesis. The classical view of an occluded front is that they are formed when a cold front overtakes a warm front, such that the warm air is separated (occluded) from the cyclone center at the surface. The point where the warm front becomes the occluded front is called the triple point; a new area of low-pressure that develops at this point is called a triple-point low. A more modern view of the formation process suggests that occluded fronts form directly during the wrap-up of the baroclinic zone during cyclogenesis, and then lengthen due to flow deformation and rotation around the cyclone.
