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 rocket is fired straight up. It contains two stages (Stage 1 and Stage 2) of solid rocket fuel that are designed to burn for 1

Archy [21]

Answer:

a) y= 3.5 10³ m, b) t = 64 s

Explanation:

a) For this exercise we use the vertical launch kinematics equation

Stage 1

y₁ = y₀ + v₀ t + ½ a t²

y₁ = 0 + 0 + ½ a₁ t²

Let's calculate

y₁ = ½ 16 10²

y₁ = 800 m

At the end of this stage it has a speed

v₁ = vo + a₁ t₁

v₁ = 0 + 16 10

v₁ = 160 m / s

Stage 2

y₂ = y₁ + v₁ (t-t₀) + ½ a₂ (t-t₀)²

y₂ = 800 + 150 5 + ½ 11 5²

y₂ = 1092.5 m

Speed is

v₂ = v₁ + a₂ t

v₂ = 160 + 11 5

v₂ = 215 m / s

The rocket continues to follow until the speed reaches zero (v₃ = 0)

v₃² = v₂² - 2 g y₃

0 = v₂² - 2g y₃

y₃ = v₂² / 2g

y₃ = 215²/2 9.8

y₃ = 2358.4 m

The total height is

y = y₃ + y₂

y = 2358.4 + 1092.5

y = 3450.9 m

y= 3.5 10³ m

b) Flight time is the time to go up plus the time to go down

Let's look for the time of stage 3

v₃ = v₂ - g t₃

v₃ = 0

t₃ = v₂ / g

t₃ = 215 / 9.8

t₃ = 21.94 s

The time to climb is

$t_{s}$ = t₁ + t₂ + t₃

t_{s} = 10+ 5+ 21.94

t_{s} = 36.94 s

The time to descend from the maximum height is

y = v₀ t - ½ g t²

When it starts to slow down it's zero

y = - ½ g t_{b}²

t_{b} = √-2y / g

t_{b} = √(- 2 (-3450.9) /9.8)

t_{b} = 26.54 s

Flight time is the rise time plus the descent date

t = t_{s} + t_{b}

t = 36.94 + 26.54

t =63.84 s

t = 64 s

g When a high-energy proton or pion traveling near the speed of light collides with a nucleus, it may travel 3.2 10-15 m before

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

Time, $t=1.07\times 10^{-23}\ s$

Explanation:

Given that,

When a high-energy proton or pion traveling near the speed of light collides with a nucleus, it may travel $3.2\times 10^{-15}\ m$ before interacting.

Let t is the time interval required for the strong interaction to occur. It will move with the speed of light. So,

$t=\dfrac{d}{c}\\\\t=\dfrac{3.2\times 10^{-15}}{3\times 10^8}\\\\t=1.07\times 10^{-23}\ s$

So, the time interval is $1.07\times 10^{-23}\ s$

Find the quantity of heat needed

krok68 [10]

Answer:

Approximately $3.99\times 10^{4}\; \rm J$ (assuming that the melting point of ice is $0\; \rm ^\circ C$ .)

Explanation:

Convert the unit of mass to kilograms, so as to match the unit of the specific heat capacity of ice and of water.

$\begin{aligned}m&= 100\; \rm g \times \frac{1\; \rm kg}{1000\; \rm g} \\ &= 0.100\; \rm kg\end{aligned}$

The energy required comes in three parts:

Energy required to raise the temperature of that $0.100\; \rm kg$ of ice from $(-10\; \rm ^\circ C)$ to $0\; \rm ^\circ C$ (the melting point of ice.)
Energy required to turn $0.100\; \rm kg$ of ice into water while temperature stayed constant.
Energy required to raise the temperature of that newly-formed $0.100\; \rm kg$ of water from $0\; \rm ^\circ C$ to $10\;\ rm ^\circ C$ .

The following equation gives the amount of energy $Q$ required to raise the temperature of a sample of mass $m$ and specific heat capacity $c$ by $\Delta T$ :

$Q = c \cdot m \cdot \Delta T$ ,

where

$c$ is the specific heat capacity of the material,
$m$ is the mass of the sample, and
$\Delta T$ is the change in the temperature of this sample.

For the first part of energy input, $c(\text{ice}) = 2100\; \rm J \cdot kg \cdot K^{-1}$ whereas $m = 0.100\; \rm kg$ . Calculate the change in the temperature:

$\begin{aligned}\Delta T &= T(\text{final}) - T(\text{initial}) \\ &= (0\; \rm ^\circ C) - (-10\; \rm ^\circ C) \\ &= 10\; \rm K\end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the energy required to achieve that temperature change:

$\begin{aligned}Q_1 &= c(\text{ice}) \cdot m(\text{ice}) \cdot \Delta T\\ &= 2100\; \rm J \cdot kg \cdot K^{-1} \\ &\quad\quad \times 0.100\; \rm kg \times 10\; \rm K\\ &= 2.10\times 10^{3}\; \rm J\end{aligned}$ .

Similarly, for the third part of energy input, $c(\text{water}) = 4200\; \rm J \cdot kg \cdot K^{-1}$ whereas $m = 0.100\; \rm kg$ . Calculate the change in the temperature:

$\begin{aligned}\Delta T &= T(\text{final}) - T(\text{initial}) \\ &= (10\; \rm ^\circ C) - (0\; \rm ^\circ C) \\ &= 10\; \rm K\end{aligned}$ .

Calculate the energy required to achieve that temperature change:

$\begin{aligned}Q_3&= c(\text{water}) \cdot m(\text{water}) \cdot \Delta T\\ &= 4200\; \rm J \cdot kg \cdot K^{-1} \\ &\quad\quad \times 0.100\; \rm kg \times 10\; \rm K\\ &= 4.20\times 10^{3}\; \rm J\end{aligned}$ .

The second part of energy input requires a different equation. The energy $Q$ required to melt a sample of mass $m$ and latent heat of fusion $L_\text{f}$ is:

$Q = m \cdot L_\text{f}$ .

Apply this equation to find the size of the second part of energy input:

$\begin{aligned}Q_2&= m \cdot L_\text{f}\\&= 0.100\; \rm kg \times 3.36\times 10^{5}\; \rm J\cdot kg^{-1} \\ &= 3.36\times 10^{4}\; \rm J\end{aligned}$ .

Find the sum of these three parts of energy:

$\begin{aligned}Q &= Q_1 + Q_2 + Q_3 = 3.99\times 10^{4}\; \rm J\end{aligned}$ .

Imani stirs a cup of hot sencha tea with a cool silver spoon. She notices that the silver spoon becomes warmer. What energy chan

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

D. The tea loses heat to the spoon causing the spoon to become warmer

Explanation:

When the silver spoon at a lower temperature than the tea, is added to the tea, it makes thermal contact. Hence, the heat transfer starts between the two until the equilibrium is reached. We know that the heat transfer takes place from the body with a higher temperature to a body with a lower temperature. As a result, the body with higher temperature loses heat and its temperature lowers down. While the body with a lower temperature gains heat and its temperature rises.

Therefore, the correct option is:

<u>D. The tea loses heat to the spoon causing the spoon to become warmer</u>

Why were epicycles necessary in ptolemy’s model of the universe?

Liono4ka [1.6K]

epicycles were orbits within orbits used to explain discrepancies between expected and observed planetary movement, including the appearance of planets slowing down, speeding up, and moving backward.
