A spring is hung from the ceiling. A 0.350-kg block is then attached to the free end of the spring. When released from rest, the

block drops 0.130 m before momentarily coming to rest, after which it moves back upward. (a) What is the spring constant of the spring?

Answer:

K = 26.92 N/m  

Explanation:

Given that

m = 0.35 kg

x= 0.13 m

Lest take spring constant = K

When spring stretch by 0.13 m,then the spring force

F= K x

F= 0.13 K

For balancing the spring force ,the gravity force = m g

Therefore

m g= K x      

Now by putting the values in the above expression  

0.35 x 10 = 0.13 K                       ( take g =10 m/s²)

K = 26.92 N/m  

Therefore the spring constant = 29.92 N/m

Patrick is repairing the roof on his house. He uses a hammer having a mass of 1 kilogram. While working at the apex of the roof,
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

72 joules

Explanation:

The potential energy of that hammer is a function of its displacement against gravity. Considering that it fell with a velocity of 12 m/s, it was its displacement against gravity that gave it this velocity. It will continue to move until its displacement to gravity is zero.

since the body is in motion; it has converted its potential energy (mgh, m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height) to kinetic energy (energy due to motion, 1/2mv^2; m = mass, v = velocity or speed)

therefore the potential energy is equal to kinetic energy

mgh = 1/2mv^2 = 1/2 *1kg* 12*12 = 72 joules.

Describe why cars are inefficient machines in terms of thermodynamics.
Alina [70]

Cars are the mechanical device which convert chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, the engine used in the automobiles car are very inefficient, they can only convert 30-40% of chemical energy of fuel into mechanical energy, since thermodynamics is the branch of science that deals with the conversion of energy, thus due to poor conversion rate of chemical energy into mechanical energy, cars are known as inefficient machine.

Which term is a scalar quantity?
balu736 [363]
Vector quantities have both magnitude and direction. Distance is a scalar quantity. It refers only to how far an object has traveled. For example, 4 feet is a distance; it gives no information about direction.
