State an advantage of using such hydraulic jack to lift a load

expeople1 [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

You are going to lift and press down on the 200 N many times and move only a short distance. The reward is that slowly but surely you will lift a very heavy load -- one that cannot be managed any other way but by the hydraulic jack.

A 2.00 kg box slides on a rough, horizontal surface, hits a spring with a speed of 1.90 m/s and compresses it a distance of 10.0

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of box $m=2\ kg$

speed of box $v=1.9\ m/s$

distance moved by the box $x=10\ cm$

coefficient of kinetic friction $\mu _k=0.66$

Friction force $f_r=\mu_kN$

$f_r=0.66\times mg$

$f_r=0.66\times 2\times 9.8=12.936 \N$

Kinetic Energy of box will be utilize to overcome friction and rest is stored in spring in the form of elastic potential energy

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=f_r\cdot x+\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

$\frac{1}{2}\times 2\times 1.9^2=12.936\times 0.1+\frac{1}{2}\times k\times (0.1)^2$

$3.61-1.2936=0.005\times k$

$k=463.28\ N/m$
