It takes 500 J of work to compress a spring 10 cm. What is the force constant of the spring? (b) When a 3.0 kg block is pushed a

gainst a massless spring of force constant 4.5. 10' N/m, the spring is compressed 8.0 cm. The block is released and it slides 2.0 m from the point at which it is released across a horizontal surface before friction stops it. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the surface?

Answer:

Explanation:

a) Energy stored in spring = 1/2 k x² = .5 x k 0.1²

500 = 5 x 10⁻³ k ,

k = (500/5) x 10³ = 10⁵ N/m

b )

k = 4.5 x 10¹ = 45 N/m

Stored energy = 1/2 k x² = .5 x 45 x 8² x 10⁻⁴ =1440 x 10⁻⁴ J

This energy gets dissipated by friction .

work done by friction = μ mg d

d is the distance traveled under friction

so 1440 x 10⁻⁴ = μ x 3 x 9.8 x 2

μ = 245 x 10⁻⁴  or 0.00245 which appears to be very small. .

Find the frequency of a wave with the wavelength 3.5 m and the speed is 50 m/s. <br>​
Andru [333]

Answer:

8.57 Hz

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Wavelength (λ) = 3.5 m

Velocity (v) = 30 m/s

Frequency (f) =?

The velocity, wavelength and frequency of a wave are related according to the equation:

Velocity = wavelength × frequency

v = λ × f

With the above formula, we can simply obtain the frequency of the wave as follow:

Wavelength (λ) = 3.5 m

Velocity (v) = 30 m/s

Frequency (f) =?

v = λ × f

30 = 3.5 × f

Divide both side by 3.5

f = 30 / 3.5

f = 8.57 Hz

Thus, the frequency of the wave is 8.57 Hz

The escape speed from an object is v2 = 2GM/R, where M is the mass of the object, R is the object's starting radius, and G is th
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

Approximate escape speed = 45.3 km/s

Explanation:

Escape speed

        v=\sqrt{\frac{2GM}{R}}

Here we have

   Gravitational constant = G = 6.67 × 10⁻¹¹ m³ kg⁻¹ s⁻²

   R = 1 AU = 1.496 × 10¹¹ m

   M = 2.3 × 10³⁰ kg

Substituting

    v=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 6.67\times 10^{-11}\times 2.3\times 10^{30}}{1.496\times 10^{11}}}=4.53\times 10^4m/s=45.3km/s

Approximate escape speed = 45.3 km/s

The number of electrons an atom would gain or lose when forming ionic bonds. It can be positive, negative or zero.
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

<u>In an ionic bond , an element will have to lose or gain electrons.</u>

Explanation:

  • Ionic bond, also called electrovalent bond, type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound.
  • Such a bond forms when the valence (outermost) electrons of one atom are transferred permanently to another atom.
  • <em>The atom that loses the electrons becomes a positively charged ion (cation), while the one that gains them becomes a negatively charged ion (anion).</em>

∴

  • <em>The number of electrons an atom would gain or lose when forming ionic bonds cannot be zero.</em>
