Answer:
The new height the ball will reach = (1/4) of the initial height it reached.
Explanation:
The energy stored in any spring material is given as (1/2)kx²
This energy is converted to potential energy, mgH, of the ball at its maximum height.
If the initial height reached is H
And the initial compression of the spring = x
So, mgH = (1/2)kx²
H = kx²/2mg
The new compression, x₁ = x/2
New energy of loaded spring = (1/2)kx₁²
And the new potential energy = mgH₁
mgH₁ = (1/2)kx₁²
But x₁ = x/2
mgH₁ = (1/2)k(x/2)² = kx²/8
H₁ = kx²/8mg = H/4 (provided all the other parameters stay constant)
By definition of average acceleration,
<em>a</em> = (20 m/s - 33.1 m/s) / (4.7 s) ≈ -2.78 m/s²
Vertically, the car is in equilibrium, so the net force is equal to the friction force in the direction opposite the car's motion:
∑ <em>F</em> = (1502.7 kg) (-2.78 m/s²) ≈ -4188.38 N ≈ -4200 N
If you just want the magnitude, drop the negative sign.
