A block of ice of mass 4.30 kg is placed against a horizontal spring that has a force constant k = 250 N/m and is compressed a d

istance 2.80 × 10⁻² m. The spring is released and accelerates the block along a horizontal surface. You can ignore friction and the mass of the spring.
Calculate the work done on the block by the spring during the motion of the block from its initial position to where the spring has returned to its uncompressed length. What is the speed of the block after it leaves the spring?

Answer:

W = 0.060 J

v_2 = 0.18 m/s

Explanation:

solution:

for the spring:

W = 1/2*k*x_1^2 - 1/2*k*x_2^2

x_1 = -0.025 m and x_2 = 0

W = 1/2*k*x_1^2 = 1/2*(250 N/m)(-0.028m)^2

W = 0.060 J

the work-energy theorem,

W_tot = K_2 - K_1 = ΔK

with K = 1/2*m*v^2

v_2 = √2*W/m

v_2 = 0.18 m/s

A marble is flicked off the edge of a table. The motion of the marble follows a parabolic path.
dem82 [27]

When marble is flicked off the edge of a table then the at the instant it will move off the table the velocity is horizontal while due to force of gravitation the marble will start accelerating downwards.

So here we will say that the velocity of marble will remain constant through out the motion in X direction as there is no force in that direction

While in Y direction the marble will have gravitational force due to which marble will accelerate downwards

So the path of the marble will be parabolic path

hence the correct answer will be

<em>A. </em>

<em>Only one continuous force is acting on the marble.</em>

Temperature is____ to the average kinetic energy of a gas.
blsea [12.9K]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

As on increasing the temperature, the molecules gain more kinetic energy due to which they tend to collide and move rapidly from one place to another.  

Thus, we can conclude that when temperature is increased, the kinetic energy of the molecules increases. This means that temperature is directly proportional to the average kinetic energy of a gas.

a particle of mass m and charge q moving with velocity v in a magnetic field B. The velocity of the particle is perpendicular to
Lerok [7]

Explanation:

When a charged particle describes a circular path in a uniform magnetic field, the charged particle experiences a magnetic force  towards the center of circular path, according to Fleming's left hand rule. Therefore the magnetic force and velocity (tangent to circular path) are perpendicular to each other during the circular motion. As the direction of displacement, is the direction of velocity, hence force and displacement are perpendicular to each other.

Therefore work done by magnetic force,

How do the units of work and power compare?
ki77a [65]

Answer:

Option (d) is correct.

Explanation:

Work done is given by :

W = Fd, where F is force and d is displacement

Unit of work done :

The SI unit of force is Newton (N) and that of displacement is meter (m). So, the unit of work done is N-m. It is call Joule. It means that the unit of work done is Joule.

Power is given by rate at which the work is done. It is given by :

P = W/t, W is work done and t is time

Unit of power:

Unit of work is Joule (J) and that of time is second (s). It means that the unit of power is Watt and it is equal to Joule/second

Hence, the correct option is (d) "The unit for work is a joule. The unit for power is a watt, which is a joule per second".
