Answer:
The initial speed of the block is 1.09 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
mass of block, m = 1.7 kg
force constant of the spring, k = 955 N/m
compression of the spring, x = 4.6 cm = 0.046 m
From principle of conservation of energy
kinetic energy of the block = elastic potential energy of the spring
¹/₂mv² = ¹/₂kx²
mv² = kx²
where;
v is the initial speed of the block
x is the compression of the spring
Therefore, the initial speed of the block is 1.09 m/s
Air pollution level is higher in Location B, because poisonous fumes are produced when coal burns.
The distance an object falls from rest through gravity is
D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Distance = (1/2 acceleration of gravity) x (square of the falling time)
We want to see how the time will be affected
if ' D ' doesn't change but ' g ' does.
So I'm going to start by rearranging the equation
to solve for ' t '. D = (1/2) (g) (t²)
Multiply each side by 2 : 2 D = g t²
Divide each side by ' g ' : 2 D/g = t²
Square root each side: t = √ (2D/g)
Looking at the equation now, we can see what happens to ' t ' when only ' g ' changes:
-- ' g ' is in the denominator; so bigger 'g' ==> shorter 't'
and smaller 'g' ==> longer 't' .--
They don't change by the same factor, because 1/g is inside the square root. So 't' changes the same amount as √1/g does.
Gravity on the surface of the moon is roughly 1/6 the value of gravity on the surface of the Earth.
So we expect ' t ' to increase by √6 = 2.45 times.
It would take the same bottle (2.45 x 4.95) = 12.12 seconds to roll off the same window sill and fall 120 meters down to the surface of the Moon.
They both involve atoms. Other than that they're the exact opposite of each other. Fusion is putting atoms together. Fission is taking them apart.
