Answer:

Speed of the mass is 2.2 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the object, m = 1.5 kg

Spring constant of the spring, k = 120 N/m

The spring is compressed by a distance of, x = 0.25 m

The mass is released from this compressed position, then the initial kinetic energy of block is equal to the spring potential energy i.e.

\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

v is the speed of the mass.

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{kx^2}{m}}

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{120\times (0.25)^2}{1.5}}

v = 2.23 m/s

The speed of the mass as it passes the natural length of the spring is 2.2 m/s. Hence, the correct option is (d).

Instantaneous speed is measured
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

C. At a particular instant

Explanation:

Speed is the defined as the ratio between the distance covered by an object and the time taken:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where d is the distance and t the time.

However, there are two possible measurements of speed:

- Average speed: this is the speed measured over a non-zero time interval (for example: a car moving 100 metres in 5 seconds; its average speed is

v=\frac{100 m}{5 s}=20 m/s

- Instantaneous speed: this is the speed of an object measured at a particular instant in time, so for a time interval that tends to zero. So, in the previous example, the average speed is 20 m/s but the instantaneous speed of the car at various instants of time can be different from that value.

A copper rod of cross-sectional area 11.6 cm2 has one end immersed in boiling water and the other in an ice-water mixture, which
julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

0.686 g of ice melts each second.

Solution:

As per the question:

Cross-sectional Area of the Copper Rod, A = 11.6\ cm^{2} = 11.6\times 10^{- 4}\ m^{2}

Length of the rod, L = 19.6 cm = 0.196 m

Thermal conductivity of Copper, K = 390\ W/m.^{\circ}C

Conduction of heat from the rod per second is given by:

q = \frac{KA\Delta T}{L}

where

\Delta T = 100^{\circ} - 0^{\circ} = 100^{\circ}C = temperature difference between the two ends of the rod.

Thus

q = \frac{390\times 11.6\times 10^{- 4}\times 100}{0.196} = 228.48\ J/s

Now,

To calculate the mass, M of the ice melted per sec:

M = \frac{q}{L_{w}}

where

L_{w} = Latent heat of fusion of water = 333 kJ/kg

M = \frac{228.48}{333\times 10^{3}} = 6.86\times 10^{- 4}\ kg = 0.686\ g

What is the correct classification of a mixture in which both a solid and a liquid are visible?
stepan [7]
<span>The answer is a heterogeneous mixture. Mixtures can be homogeneous and heterogeneous. If a solid and a liquid of a mixture cannot be separated and the difference between them is not visible, it is called homogeneous mixture (or solution). If a solid and a liquid of a mixture are visible and can be separated easily, the mixture is called heterogeneous.</span>

Two point charges, 1.8 pC and −1.8 pC, are separated by 7 µm. What is the dipole moment of this pair of charges?
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer: 12,600,000Cm

Explanation:

From the data's;

Charges(q) = 1.8 PC equal to 1.8 x 10^¹²C

Distance = 7 micrometer, is equal to 0.0000070m

From the equation of electric dipole moment, p= q x d, where q= charge, d=distance and p is the dipole moment.

Then we have 1.8x10^¹² x 0.0000070= 12,600,000Cm

NB: The charges are identical.
