momentum conservation

75x2 = 30 x her speed

75x2/30=150/30=5m/s

Suppose the half-life of an element is 10 years. How many half-lives will it take before only about 6% of the original sample re
sergiy2304 [10]
You don't need to worry about the 10 year bit with this question. Just grab a calculator and divide 100/2, then the answer to that (50) by 2 etc and keep dividing by 2 until you get down to 6.25.

The answer ends up being 4 half lives :)

If you don't understand what a half life is please let me know :)

Wood has chemical energy, which can be used to generate thermal and radiant energy when burned in a fireplace. Which best explai
Marianna [84]

Answer:In the case of burning wood, stored potential energy (in the form of chemical energy) in the log is released due to heating by other excited atoms. This chemical reaction is called combustion and requires oxygen. Combustion changes the potential chemical energy into kinetic energy in the form of heat.

The internal pressure on a bottle of soda is 5550 torr. the bottle cap is designed to withstand a pressure of 7.2 atm. (a) calcu
Mademuasel [1]

This is a conversion problem. 760 Torr is equal to 1 atmosphere. so we can can solve now. 5,550torr*(1atmosphere/760torr)=7.3atmospheres. since the two torrs cancel out with cross multiplication we are left in atmosphere units.

A 0.20 kg mass attached to the end of a spring causes it to stretch 3.0 cm. What is the spring constant? What is the potential e
SVEN [57.7K]

Given that the mass is m = 0.2 kg and the displacement is x = 3 cm = 0.03 m

We have to find the spring constant and potential energy.

The spring constant can be calculated by the formula

\begin{gathered} F=\text{ kx} \\ mg\text{ = kx} \\ k\text{ = }\frac{mg}{x} \end{gathered}

Here, k is the spring constant.

g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration due to gravity.

Substituting the values, the spring constant will be

\begin{gathered} k=\frac{0.2\times9.8}{0.03} \\ =\text{ 65.33 N/m } \end{gathered}

The potential energy can be calculated as

\begin{gathered} U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2 \\ =\frac{1}{2}\times65.33\text{ }\times(0.03)^2 \\ =\text{ 0.0293 J} \end{gathered}
