A 1100 kgkg safe is 2.4 mm above a heavy-duty spring when the rope holding the safe breaks. The safe hits the spring and compres
Drupady [299]

Answer:

191.36 N/m

Explanation:

From the question,

The Potential Energy of the safe = Energy of the spring when it was compressed.

mgh = 1/2ke²............... Equation 1

Where m = mass of the safe, g = acceleration due to gravity, h = height of the save above the heavy duty spring , k = spring constant, e = compression

Making k the subject of the equation,

k =2mgh/e²................ Equation 2

Given: m = 1100 kg, h = 2.4 mm = 0.0024 m, e = 0.52 m

Constant: g = 9.8 m/s²

Substitute into equation 2

k = 2(1100)(9.8)(0.0024)/0.52²

k = 51.744/0.2704

k = 191.36 N/m

Hence the spring constant of the heavy-duty spring = 191.36 N/m

The cornea behaves as a thin lens of focal lengthapproximately 1.80 {\rm cm}, although this varies a bit. The material of whichi
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Explanation:

  a )

from lens makers formula

\frac{1}{f} =(\mu-1)(\frac{1}{r_1} -\frac{1}{r_2})

f is focal length , r₁ is radius of curvature of one face and r₂ is radius of curvature of second face

putting the values

\frac{1}{1.8} =(1.38-1)(\frac{1}{.5} -\frac{1}{r_2})

1.462 = 2 - 1 / r₂

1 / r₂ = .538

r₂ = 1.86 cm .

= 18.6 mm .

b )

object distance u = 25 cm

focal length of convex lens  f  = 1.8 cm

image distance  v   = ?

lens formula

\frac{1}{v} - \frac{1}{u} = \frac{1}{f}

\frac{1}{v} - \frac{1}{-25} = \frac{1}{1.8}

\frac{1}{v} = \frac{1}{1.8} -\frac{1}{25}

.5555 - .04

= .515

v = 1.94 cm

c )

magnification = v / u

= 1.94 / 25

= .0776

size of image = .0776 x size of object

= .0776 x 10 mm

= .776 mm

It will be a real image and it will be inverted.

s2008m [1.1K]

Do you see that blank, open space after the word "potential ..." ?

There's supposed to be a number there that actually tells us the value of the potential.  Without that number ... and a lot more description of the whole scenario here ... there's no possible answer to the question.
