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 small sphere has a harge of 9uC and other small sphere has a charge of 4uC.
Helga [31]

Answer:

Electrical force, F = 90 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Charge on sphere 1, q_1=9\ \mu C=9\times 10^{-6}\ C

Charge on sphere 2, q_1=4\ \mu C=4\times 10^{-6}\ C

Distance between two spheres, d = 6 cm = 0.06 m

Let F is the electrical force between them. It is given by the formula of electric force which is directly proportional to the product of charges and inversely proportional to the square of distance between them such that,

F=k\dfrac{q_1q_2}{d^2}

F=9\times 10^9\times \dfrac{9\times 10^{-6}\times 4\times 10^{-6}}{(0.06)^2}

F = 90 N

So, the electrical force between them is 90 N. Hence, this is the required solution.

1.) What statement best explains the type of population growth seen in Belize according to the 2010 age structure diagram?
Art [367]

Answer:

1. Belize has a high birth rate and a low death rate.

2. Belize will have a rapidly growing population over the next twenty years.

Explanation:

Belize has a high birth rate and a low death rate. Belize is in the phase II of the demographic transition model. Their population is growing exponentially. This is due to lowering death rates while the birth rates are still high.

Belize will have a rapidly growing population over the next twenty years. When the age structure diagram has a wider base than the middle or top age groups, this indicates a population that is rapidly growing. Belize is early in the transition model and still has high birth rates. Countries like Belize typically have lower opportunities for education for women of reproductive age, can have high infant mortality, and can have high emigration rates.

Very large forces are produced in joints when a person jumps from some height to the ground. Calculate the force produced if an
krok68 [10]

Answer:

A) 31 kJ

B)  1.92 KJ

C) 40 ,  2.48

Explanation:

weight of person ( m ) = 79 kg

height of jump ( h ) = 0.510 m

Compression of joint material ( d ) = 1.30 cm ≈  0.013 m

A) calculate the force

Fd = mgh

F = mgh / d

W = mg

F(net) = W + F  = mg ( 1 + \frac{h}{d} )

          =  79 * 9.81 ( 1 + (0.51 / 0.013) )

          = 774.99 ( 40.231 ) ≈ 31 KJ

B) calculate the force when the stopping distance = 0.345 m

d = 0.345 m

Fd = mgh  hence  F = mgh / d

F(net) = W + F  = mg ( 1 + \frac{h}{d} )

          =  79 * 9.81 ( 1 + (0.51 / 0.345) )

          = 774.99 ( 2.478 ) = 1.92 KJ

C) Ratio of force in part a with weight of person

=  31000 / ( 79 * 9.81 ) = 31000 / 774.99 = 40

  Ratio of force in part b with weight of person

= 1920 / 774.99 = 2.48

katrin [286]
If the car in the opposite direction turns the signal on your vehicle, then it is only likely to give way and let him or her turn before you make your turn because he or she is in the right of way and by doing this, it will prevent any complication from happening and to be able to show respect and politeness in driving.
