Newton's first law says that an object at rest will stay at rest, while an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force.

A great example of this is a ball sitting on the ground. The ball will not move until some force is used on it, rather that be you kicking it, the wind blowing it, etc. Once that force is used against it, the ball will continue to move until gravity, air resistance, a friction bring it to a stop.

A horizontal spring with stiffness 0.4 N/m has a relaxed length of 11 cm (0.11 m). A mass of 21 grams (0.021 kg) is attached and
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

0.6983 m/s

Explanation:

k = spring constant of the spring = 0.4 N/m

L₀ = Initial length = 11 cm = 0.11 m

L = Final length = 27 cm = 0.27 m

x = stretch in the spring = L - L₀ = 0.27 - 0.11 = 0.16 m

m = mass of the mass attached = 0.021 kg

v = speed of the mass

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy of mass = Spring potential energy

(0.5) m v² = (0.5) k x²

m v² = k x²

(0.021) v² = (0.4) (0.16)²

v = 0.6983 m/s

Yall have helped a lot i just need help on this then ill be done for a while
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

f(x)=a(x - h)2 + k

Much like a linear function, k works like b in the slope-intercept formula. Like where add or subtract b would determine where the line crosses, in the linear, k determines the vertex of the parabola. If you're going to go up 2, then you need to add 2.

The h determines the movement horizontally. what you put in h determines if it moves left or right. To adjust this, you need to find the number to make the parentheses equal 0 when x equals -2 (because moving the vertex point to the left means subtraction/negatives):

x - h = 0

-2 - h = 0

-h = 2

h = -2

So the function ends up looking like:

f(x)=a(x - (-2))2 + 2

Subtracting a negative cancels the signs out to make a positive:

f(x)=a(x + 2)2 + 2Explanation:

The moon orbits the earth at a distance of 3.85 x 10^8 m. Assume that this distance is between the centers of the earth and the
Inga [223]

Answer:

27.5 days

0.92 month

Explanation:

r = radius of the orbit of moon around the earth = 3.85\times10^{8} m

M = Mass of earth = 5.98\times10^{24} m

T = Time period of moon's motion

According to Kepler's third law, Time period is related to radius of orbit as

T^{2} = \frac{4\pi ^{2} r^{3}  }{GM}

inserting the values, we get

T^{2} = \frac{4(3.14)^{2} (3.85\times10^{8})^{3}  }{(6.67\times10^{-11})(5.98\times10^{24})}\\T = 2.3754\times10^{6} sec

we know that

1 day = 24 hours = 24 x 3600 sec = 86400 s

T = 2.3754\times10^{6} sec \frac{1 day}{86400 sec} \\T = 27.5 days

1 month = 30 days

T = 27.5 days \frac{1 month}{30 days} \\T = 0.92 month

How long does it take for a rotating object to speed up from 15.0 rad/s to 33.3 rad/s if it has a uniform angular acceleration o
Leona [35]

Answer:

it takes 5.22 seconds

Explanation:

angular \: acceleration \:  =  \frac{angular \: velocity}{time}

t = (33.3 - 15) ÷ 3.45

t = 18 ÷ 3.45

t = 5.22 sec
