Answer:

7.74m/s

Explanation:

Mass = 35.9g = 0.0359kg

A = 39.5cm = 0.395m

K = 18.4N/m

At equilibrium position, there's total conservation of energy.

Total energy = kinetic energy + potential energy

Total Energy = K.E + P.E

½KA² = ½mv² + ½kx²

½KA² = ½(mv² + kx²)

KA² = mv² + kx²

Collect like terms

KA² - Kx² = mv²

K(A² - x²) = mv²

V² = k/m (A² - x²)

V = √(K/m (A² - x²) )

note x = ½A

V = √(k/m (A² - (½A)²)

V = √(k/m (A² - A²/4))

Resolve the fraction between A.

V = √(¾. K/m. A² )

V = √(¾ * (18.4/0.0359)*(0.395)²)

V = √(0.75 * 512.53 * 0.156)

V = √(59.966)

V = 7.74m/s

Answer:

The speed of the mass is 7.74 m/s

Explanation:

Given data:

m = 35.9 g = 0.0359 kg

k = 18.4 N/m

A = 39.5 cm = 0.395 m

The displacement in spring is:

x=\frac{A}{2} =\frac{0.395}{2} =0.1975m

The law of conservation of energy:

initial energy = final energy

\frac{1}{2} kA^{2} =\frac{1}{2} kx^{2} +\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} \\kA^{2}=kx^{2}+mv^{2}\\(18.4*0.395^{2} )=(18.4*0.1975^{2} )+(0.0359v^{2} )\\v=7.74m/s

If this decay has a half-life of 10.2 years, what mass of 60.8g carbon-14 will remain after 20.4 years
OLEGan [10]
20.4 years is 20.4/10.2 = 2 half-life cycles, which means a quarter of the starting mass or 15.2 g will remain after this time.

Add these measurements, using significant digit rules:
tia_tia [17]

Here we have to add the two measurements given in the question

The measurement values are given as 1.0090 cm and 0.02 cm.we have to  add them on the basis of significant figure rules.

As per the addition rule in terms of significant figures

1-First we have to select the number of significant digits after the decimal point of each quantity.

2-Now we have to remember that during the addition ,the resultant of two quantities will follow the quantity having least number of significant figures after the decimal point.

3-Here we are considering the minimum number of significant figures after the decimal points not the minimum number of significant figures in case of multiplication and division

Now we have to add these two quantities as per the above rule-

         1.0090 cm +0.02 cm

         =1.0290 cm

Here the result  will follow 0.02 which has minimum number of significant figures after the decimal points.

Hence we have to round off the number from 9 of 1.0290

As 9 is  greater than 5 ,so he actual result will be 1.03 cm

A 3.06kg stone is dropped from a height of 10.0m and strikes the ground with a velocity of 7.00m/s. What average force of air fr
xxTIMURxx [149]
<span>22.5 newtons. First, let's determine how much energy the stone had at the moment of impact. Kinetic energy is expressed as: E = 0.5mv^2 where E = Energy m = mass v = velocity Substituting known values and solving gives: E = 0.5 3.06 kg (7 m/s)^2 E = 1.53 kg 49 m^2/s^2 E = 74.97 kg*m^2/s^2 Now ignoring air resistance, how much energy should the rock have had? We have a 3.06 kg moving over a distance of 10.0 m under a force of 9.8 m/s^2. So 3.06 kg * 10.0 m * 9.8 m/s^2 = 299.88 kg*m^2/s^2 So without air friction, we would have had 299.88 Joules of energy, but due to air friction we only have 74.97 Joules. The loss of energy is 299.88 J - 74.97 J = 224.91 J So we can claim that 224.91 Joules of work was performed over a distance of 10 meters. So let's do the division. 224.91 J / 10 m = 224.91 kg*m^2/s^2 / 10 m = 22.491 kg*m/s^2 = 22.491 N Rounding to 3 significant figures gives an average force of 22.5 newtons.</span>
