Answer:

159.38 Watts

Explanation:

Initially;

  • Mass on the spring is 8.5 kg
  • Therefore, compression force is 85 N
  • Compression distance is 15 cm or 0.15 m

But;

F = kx

where F is the force of compression, k is the spring constant and x is the compression distance.

Thus;

k = F/x

  = 85 N ÷0.15

  = 566.67 N/m

We are required to determine the power needed to stretch the same spring for 1.5 m in 4 secs.

Power = Work done ÷ time

Work done is given by 0.5kx²

Therefore;

Power = 0.5kx²÷ t

          = (0.5×566.67 N/m × 1.5² ) ÷ 4 seconds

          = 159.38 Watts

Thus, the power needed is 159.38 watts

A carnival game consists of a two masses on a curved frictionless track, as pictured below. The player pushes the larger object
Harman [31]

Answer:

v₁₀ = 1.90 m / s

Explanation:

In this exercise we are given the maximum height data, with energy we can know how fast the body came out

Final mechanical energy, maximum height

    Em_{f} = U = m g h

Initial mechanical energy, in the lower part of the track

    Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

    Em=   Em_{f}

    ½ m v² = m g h

    v = √ 2gh

Now we can use the moment to find the speed with which objects collide

The large object has a mass M = 5.41 kg a velocity starts v₁₀, the small object has a mass m = 1.68 kg an initial velocity of zero v₂₀ = 0 and  final velocity v

Initial before the crash

    p₀ = M v₁₀ + 0

Final after the crash

      p_{f} = M v1f + m v

   p₀ =   p_{f}

   M v₁₀ = M v_{1f}+ m v

As the shock is elastic the kinetic energy is conserved

     K₀ = K_{f}

    ½ M v₁₀² = ½ M v_{1f}² + ½ m v²

Let's write the system of equations

    M v₁₀ = M  v_{1f} + m v

    M v1₁₀² = M v_{1f}² + m v²

We cleared v1f in the first we replaced in the second

   v_{1f} = (M v₁₀ - mv) / M

    M v₁₀² = M (M v₁₀ - mv)² / M² + m v²

    M v₁₀² = 1 / M (M² v₁₀² - 2mM v v₁₀ + m² v²) +m v²

     v₁₀² (M - M) + 2 m v v₁₀ - v² (m2 + m) / M = 0

     2 m v₁₀ - v (m + 1) m/ M = 0

     v₁₀ = v (m +1) / (2M)

Let's substitute the value of v

     v1₁₀= √ (2gh) (m +1) / (2M)

Let's calculate

    v₁₀ = √ (2 9.8 3) (1+ 1.68) / (2  5.41)

    V₁₀ = 7.668 (2.68) / 10.82

   v₁₀ = 1.90 m / s

A 34n force is applied to a 213kg mass how much does the mass accelerate
motikmotik
We Know, F = m*a
Here, F = 34 N
m = 213 Kg

Substitute their values in the equation,
34 = 213 * a
a = 34/213
a = 0.159 m/s²

So, your final answer & the acceleration of the object would be 0.159 m/s²

Hope this helps!
