2 weeks ago, oh boy.

So we know k is 10 N/m and it is stretch 0.1m. 
For the conservation of energy, we know the mechanical energy in the system is constant, and we know the energy switches from potential elastic energy to kinetic energy. So we can solve for the maximum potential elastic energy, which should tell us the mechanical energy.

Since we are told it is stretch 0.1m and we are given the spring constant, we can solve for max potential elastic energy.

Mechanical energy = Max potential = 0.5kA^2

This gives us 0.5(10N/m)(0.1m)^2 = 0.05J

The maximum kinetic energy is when the potential elastic energy is zero, thus 0.05J would be the maximum kinetic energy.

Hope this helps!

a container of water is knocked off a 10.0 meter high ledge with a horizontal velocity of 1.00 meters/second. calculate the time
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

1.43 s

Explanation:

The time it takes for the container to reach the ground is determined only by the vertical motion of the container, which is a free-fall motion, so a uniformly accelerated motion with a constant acceleration of g=9.8 m/s^2 towards the ground.

The vertical distance covered by an object in free fall is given by

S=ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2

where

u = 0 is the initial vertical speed

t is the time

a= g = 9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration

since u=0, it can be rewritten as

S=\frac{1}{2}gt^2

And substituting S=10.0 m, we can solve for t, to find the duration of the fall:

t=\sqrt{\frac{2S}{g}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(10.0 m)}{9.8 m/s^2}}=1.43 s

Which statement best describes how the period and frequency of electromagnetic waves change between gamma rays and microwaves?
Dimas [21]
On an electromagnetic spectrum, one of its noticeable trends is that the wavelength increases with decreasing energy and the wavelength decrease with increasing energy. Furthermore, gamma rays have high energy and short wavelengths while microwaves have low energy and long wavelengths.

A car is moving at a rate of 72 km/hr .How far does car move when it stop after 4 seconds? ​
Zanzabum

Answer:

Assuming it starts at 72 kmph and hits a dead stop: Divide 72 by 60 for distance per minute. So, 1.2km per minute. 1.2km is 1200m and 4 seconds is one fifteenth of a minute.

Against the park ranger's advice, a visitor at a national park throws a stone horizontally off the edge of a 86 m high cliff and
Drupady [299]

The initial horizontal velocity of the rock, in m/s is 21.241 m/s.

<h3>What is projectile?</h3>

When an object is thrown at an angle from the horizontal direction, the object is said to be in projectile motion. The object which follows the projectile motion.

Time taken by the stone to reach the ground is

t = √2h/g

t = √(2x 86)/9.81

t = 4.19s


The horizontal velocity is

V(x)  = Horizontal distance traveled / Time taken t

Put the values, we get

V(x) = 89 m/4.19 s

V(x) = 21.241 m/s

Thus, the horizontal velocity is 21.241 m/s
