At a waterpark, sleds with riders are sent along a slippery, horizontal surface by the release of a large, compressed spring. Th

e spring with a force constant 37.0 N/cm and negligible mass rests on the frictionless horizontal surface. One end is in contact with a stationary wall. A sled and rider with total mass 66.0 kg are pushed against the other end, compressing the spring 0.370 m. The sled is then released with zero initial velocity.
What is the sled's speed when the spring is still compressed 0.180 m?

Answer:

2.2 m/s

Explanation:

<u>solution:</u>

To calculate change in stored energy at desired extension

ΔU = 1/2*k*(δx)^2

     = 1/2*3700*(0.37^2-0.180^2)

     = 201 N.m

use work energy theorem

ΔU = ΔK = 1/2*m*v^2 = 201

              = 2.2 m/s

<u>note:</u>

calculation maybe wrong but method is correct.

slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

The strengthcompassion field is proportional to the closeness of the field lines—more precisely, it is proportional to the number of lines per unit area perpendicular to the lines. The direction of the electric field is tangent to the field line at any point in space. Field lines can never cross. These pattern of lines, sometimes referred to as electric field lines, point in the direction that a positive test charge would accelerate if placed upon the line. As such, the lines are directed away from positively charged source charges and toward negatively charged source charges.

Rules for drawing electric field lines

1. Electric field lines are always drawn from High potential to

low potential.

2. Two electric field lines can never intersect each other.

3. The net electric field inside a Conductor is Zero.

4. Electric field line from a positive charge is drawn radially outwards and from a negative charge radially inwards.

5. The density of electric field lines tells the strength of the electric field at that region.

6. Electric field lines terminate Perpendicularly to the surface of a conductor.

A vector quantity has a direction and a magnitude, while a scalar has only a magnitude. You can tell if a quantity is a vector by whether or not it has a direction associated with it.

So, electric fields are vector quantity due to the fact any student can tell you that a compass is used to determine which direction is north.

Since the compass always point northward, then it has a direction and magnitude and so it is a vector quantity

2 forces are acting on a body. I forgot the body doesn't it's position or shape, the forces.......a)must be of equal magnitude b
Veseljchak [2.6K]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

only if there is a net force of zero, the body will not move

some people may say B but that is wrong because maybe one force is greater than the other so the object would still move even though the forces are in opposite directions and parallel

A constant net torque is exerted on an object. Which of the following quantities for the object cannot be constant? (Select all
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

A. kinetic energy

B. angular velocity

E. angular position

Explanation:

The quantities that cannot be constant if a constant net torque is exerted on an objecta are:

A. Kinetic energy. If a torque is applied, the linear or angular speed will be changing at a rate proportional to the torque, so the kinetic energy will change too.

B. Angular velocity. It will change at a rate equal to the torque.

C. Angular position. If the angular velocity changes, the angular position will change.

Which shows the formula for converting from kelvins to degrees Celsius? °C = (9/5 × K) +32 °C = 5/9 × (K – 32) °C = K – 273 °C =
madam [21]

The freezing point of the water is 0 C , and it equals to 273 K

Then, To convert from Kelvins degrees to Celsius degrees we use the relation

K = C + 273

Also,

C = K - 273

How do metal detcors operate
Masja [62]
Metal detectors work by transmitting an electromagnetic field from the search coil into the ground. Any metal objects (targets) within the electromagnetic field will become energised and retransmit an electromagnetic field of their own.
