A block slides with no friction and hits a spring with spring constant k=2000 N/m. The block compresses the spring in a straight

line for a distance 0.15m. The block’s kinetic energy, in J, at that point is 0 J. What was its initial kinetic energy, in Joules?

To solve this exercise it is necessary to apply the concepts related to kinetic energy in a spring.

By definition the kinetic energy keeping what is stipulated in the stable Hooke law that

KE_s = \frac{1}{2} kx^2

Where,

K = Spring constant

x = Displacement

Our values are given as,

x = 0.15m

k = 2000N/m

Therefore replacing

KE_s = \frac{1}{2} kx^2

KE_s = \frac{1}{2} (2000)(0.15)^2

KE_s = 22.5J

Therefore the initial kinetic energy is 22.5J

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

28Nm

Explanation:

Torque is expressed as the prduct of force and radius

Given

Force = 140N

radius  = 0.20m

Torque = 140 * 0.2

Torque = 140 * 1/5

Torque = 28Nm

Hence the amouunt of torque applied is 28Nm

The gravitational force between two objects:
jasenka [17]

C. Gravitational force between two objects of masses m1/m2

is defined by Gm1xm2/r^2, where G is a universal constant, and r is the distance between the masses. This shows you why B is wrong; it would increase. Also, A is not a good choice, as shown. In the case of B, it would increase by say, 2/1 to 4/1 by doubling ones mass. In C's case the bottom would decrease on the fraction alot (square) if they were moved closer, thus the force would be greater.

Volume (mL) Mass (g)
Crank

Answer:

A. 1.11[mL/g]

Explanation:

We have to remember the expression to calculate the density, which says it's the relationship between mass and volume.

We can calculate the different densities for each of the samples.

density1 = m/V = 200/180 = 1.11[mL/g]

density2 = m/V = 300/270 = 1.11[mL/g]

density3 = m/V = 400/270 = 1.11[mL/g]

According to the initial data, we can determine that the density corresponds to 1.11 [mL/g]
