Answer:
x = 5.79 m
Explanation:
given,
mass of the car = 39000 Kg
spring constant = 5.7 x 10⁵ N/m
acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²
height of the track = 25 m
length of spring compressed = ?
using conservation of energy
potential energy is converted into spring energy




x = 5.79 m
the spring is compressed to x = 5.79 m to stop the car.
Most likely climbing up the mountain
A. 320 g
B. 160 g
C. 80 g
D. 40 g
In a direct current the electric charge flows in one direction.
in an alternating the electric charge changes in its direction periodically.
Answer:
(a) The equivalent spring constant is 598.485 N/m
(b) The work done is 46.926 J
Explanation:
From Hooke's law of elasticity
K (spring constant) = F/e
F is the range of force exerted = 237 - 0 = 237 N
e is the extension of bowstring = 0.396 m
K = F/e = 237/0.396 = 598.485 N/m
Work done = 1/2 Fe = 1/2 × 237 × 0.396 = 46.926 J
