The spring force = kx = mg.
k is spring constant = 200 N/m
x is the spring elongation = 0.2 m
F = 200×0.2= 40 N
Now, F = mg wil be the weight of the object
Thus, weight is 40 N.
Thus, now we can also find the mass of object, m = F/g = 40 N/9.8
Because g is acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/sec ^2
m = 4.08 kg

How many electrons must be removed from a neutral object to leave a net charge of 0.500 μc?
blsea [12.9K]
<span>Net charge of the object = 0.500 ÎĽc
 The charge of electron = -1.602 x 10^-19 C
 Calculating the net change in the number of electrons = 0.5 x 10^-6 / -1.602 x 10^-19 = - 3.12 x 10^12
 The negative sign implies the number of electrons that needs to be removed that is 3.12 x 10^12</span>

You are using a constant force to speed up a toy car from an initial speed of 6.5 m/s
Pachacha [2.7K]

By the work-energy theorem, the total work done on the car is equal to the change in its kinetic energy:

<em>W</em> = ∆<em>K</em>

<em>W</em> = 1/2 (0.34 kg) (22.9 m/s)² - 1/2 (0.34 kg) (6.5 m/s)²

<em>W</em> ≈ 82 J

A delivery truck travels with a constant velocity up an 8 slope. A 60 kg box sits on the floor of the truck and, because of sta
Blababa [14]

Explanation:

Given that,

The slope of the ramp, \theta=8^{\circ}

Mass of the box, m = 60 kg

(a) Distance covered by the truck up the slope, d = 300 m

Initially the truck moves with a constant velocity. We know that the net work done on the box is equal to 0 as per work energy theorem as :

W=\dfrac{1}{2}m(v^2-u^2)=0

u and v are the initial and the final velocity of the truck

(b) The work done on the box by the force of gravity is given by :

W=Fd\ cos\theta

Here, \theta=90+8=98^{\circ}

W=mgd\ cos\theta

W=60\times 9.8\times 300\ cos(98)

W = -24550.13 J

(c) What is the work done on the box by the normal force is equal to 0 as the angle between the force and the displacement is 90 degrees.

(d) The work done by friction is given by :

W_f=-W

W_f=24550.13\ J

Hence, this is the required solution.
