Answer:

The expansion and contraction of materials can also cause problems. For example, bridges expand in the summer heat and need special joints to stop them bending out of shape.A bimetallic strip has two metal strips glued together. One of these metals expands more for each degree temperature rise than that other.

A 0.20 kg mass on a horizontal spring is pulled back a certain distance and released. The maximum speed of the mass is measured
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

b. 0.20 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial mass, m = 0.2 kg

maximum speed,  v = 0.3 m/s

The total energy of the spring at the given maximum speed is calculated as;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

K.E = 0.5 x 0.2 x 0.3²

K.E = 0.009 J

If the mass is changed to 0.4 kg

¹/₂mv² = K.E

mv² = 2K.E

v = \sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m} } \\\\v =  \sqrt{\frac{2\times 0.009}{0.4} } \\\\v = 0.21 \ m/s\\\\v \approx 0.20 \ m/s

Therefore, the maximum speed is 0.20 m/s
