The force an ideal spring exerts on an object is given by Fx = -kx, where x measures the displacement of the object from its equ

ilibrium (x = 0) position. If k = 60 N/m, how much work is done by this force as the object moves from x = -0.20 m to x = 0?

Answer:

The work done by this force can be found via the following formula

W = \int{F(x)} \, dx = \int\limits^0_{-20} {(-kx)} \, dx = \frac{-kx^2}{2}\left \{ {{x=0} \atop {x=-20}} \right. = \frac{-60*(-20)^2}{2} \\W = -12000J

Explanation:

Alternatively, the work done by the object is equal to the elastic potantial energy done by the spring.

U = \frac{1}{2}kx_2^2 - \frac{1}{2}kx_1^2 =0 - \frac{1}{2}60(-20)^2 = -12000J

A 1500 kg car traveling 5.0 m/s collides head on with a 3000 kg truck traveling
Setler [38]
  • m1=1500kg
  • m_2=3000kg
  • v_1=5m/s
  • v_2=7m/s

Using law of conservation of momentum

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow m_1v_1-m_2v_2=(m1+m2)v_3

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow 1500(5)-3000(7)=(1500+3000)v_3

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow 7500-21000=4500v_3

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow -13500=4500v_3

\\ \sf\Rrightarrow v_3=-3m/s
