A 2.00 kg block hangs from a spring. A 300 g body hung below the block stretches the spring 2.00 cm farther. (a) What is the spr
Leokris [45]

The spring constant is 147 N/m

Given the mass of the block is 2.00 kg , the mass of the body is 300 g and the length of the spring is 2.00 cm

We need to find the spring constant

A spring is an object that can be deformed by a force and then return to its original shape after the force is removed.

The force required to stretch an elastic object such as a metal spring is directly proportional to the extension of the spring

We know that F = kx

300(9.8)= k (0.02)

k = 147.15 N/m

Rounding off to the nearest is 147N/m

The spring constant is 147N/m

andrew-mc [135]
When the child is moving, he/she has kinetic energy. For just a brief second before they move the other way, the child is not moving, but they have gravitational potential energy.

The child may need a push from time to time because friction with the air causes loss of energy.

A uniform electric field exists in the region between two oppositely charged plane parallel plates. A proton is released from re
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

a) 17.33 V/m

b) 6308 m/s

Explanation:

We start by using equation of motion

s = ut + 1/2at², where

s = 1.2 cm = 0.012 m

u = 0 m/s

t = 3.8*10^-6 s, so that

0.012 = 0 * 3.8*10^-6 + 0.5 * a * (3.8*10^-6)²

0.012 = 0.5 * a * 1.444*10^-11

a = 0.012 / 7.22*10^-12

a = 1.66*10^9 m/s²

If we assume the electric field to be E, and we know that F =qE. Also, from Newton's law, we have F = ma. So that, ma = qE, and E = ma/q, where

E = electric field

m = mass of proton

a = acceleration

q = charge of proton

E = (1.67*10^-27 * 1.66*10^9) / 1.6*10^-19

E = 2.77*10^-18 / 1.6*10^-19

E = 17.33 V/m

Final speed of the proton can be gotten by using

v = u + at

v = 0 + 1.66*10^9 * 3.8*10^-6

v = 6308 m/s

An alien spaceship traveling at 0.600 c toward the Earth launches a landing craft. The landing craft travels in the same directi
Arturiano [62]

The kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame is 6.704*10^22 Joules.

To find the answer, we have to know about the Lorentz transformation.

<h3>What is its kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame?</h3>

It is given that, an alien spaceship traveling at 0.600 c toward the Earth, in the same direction the landing craft travels with a speed of 0.800 c relative to the mother ship. We have to find the kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame, if the landing craft has a mass of 4.00 × 10⁵ kg.

                  V_x'=0.8c\\V=0.6c\\m=4*10^5kg

  • Let us consider the earth as S frame and space craft as S' frame, then the expression for KE will be,

                  KE=m_0c^2=\frac{mc^2}{1-(\frac{v_x^2}{c^2} )}

  • So, to V_x=(0.8+0.6)c-[\frac{0.6c*(0.8c)^2}{c^2}]=1.016find the KE, we have to find the value of speed of the approaching landing craft with respect to the earth frame.
  • We have an expression from Lorents transformation for relativistic law of addition of velocities as,

                      V_x'=\frac{V_x-V}{1-\frac{VV_x}{c^2} } \\thus,\\V_x=V_x'(1-\frac{VV_x}{c^2} )+V

  • Substituting values, we get,

          V_x=0.8c(1-\frac{0.8c*0.6c}{c^2} )+0.6c=(0.8c*0.52)+0.6c=1.016c

  • Thus, the KE will be,

              KE=\frac{4*10^5*(3*10^8)^2}{\sqrt{1-\frac{(1.016c)^2}{c^2} } } =\frac{1.2*10^{22}}{0.179}=6.704*10^{22}J

Thus, we can conclude that, the kinetic energy as measured in the Earth reference frame is 6.704*10^22 Joules.
