The elastic potential energy of a spring is given by $Us=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$ , where $k$ is the spring constant of the spring and $x$ is displacement from point of equilibrium.

When released, this potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is given by $KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$ , where $m$ is the mass of the object and $v$ is the object's velocity.

Thus, we have:

$Us=KE,\\\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

Substituting given values, we get:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot 50\cdot 0.2^2=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 0.002\cdot v^2,\\v^2=\frac{50\cdot 0.2^2}{0.002},\\v^2=1000,\\v\approx \boxed{31.6\:\mathrm{m/s}}$

5. A ball is sitting at rest on the floor. What will happen if a balanced force is applied to the ball? *

Leno4ka [110]

When the balanced force is applied on the ball It will roll away from the force.

Explanation:

A ball lies on the floor in rest. If the balanced force is applied to

the ball, the force will push away.

The forces would include gravity and the forces of air particles entering the ball from almost all directions.
And the ground is exercising the force and shifting away from the impact.

In which labeled portion of the curve would you use the heat of vaporization to calculate the heat absorbed? (image attached ins

sergij07 [2.7K]

In the labeled portion of the curve ,you use the heat of vaporization to calculate the heat absorbed in the 4th portion. It is indicated in the picture that it is the region where vaporization occurs, that is why you need to consider this portion to calculate.
