Answer:

3.At equilibrium, its instantaneous velocity is at maximum

Explanation:

The motion of a mass on the end of a spring is a simple harmonic motion. In a simple harmonic motion, the total mechanical energy of the system is constant, and it is sum of the elastic potential energy (U) and the kinetic energy of the mass (K):

E=U+K=\frac{1}{2}kx^2+\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = const.

where

k is the spring constant

x is the displacement of the spring from equilibrium

m is the mass

v is the speed

As we see from the formula, since the total energy E is constant, when the displacement (x) increases, the speed (v) increases, and viceversa. Therefore, when the mass is at its equilibrium position (which corresponds to x=0), the velocity of the mass will be maximum.

A zone reconnaissance involves a directed effort to obtain detailed information on all routes, obstacles, terrain, enemy forces,
son4ous [18]

Answer:

It is True

Explanation:.

A  commander assigns a zone reconnaissance mission when he seeks additional information on a zone before committing other forces in the zone. It is appropriate when the enemy situation is vague,  existing knowledge of the terrain is limited, or combat operations have altered the terrain. A zone  reconnaissance could include several route or area reconnaissance missions assigned to subordinate units.

The voltage between two parallel plates separated by a distance of 3. 0 cm is 120 v. The electric field between the plates is?
Lapatulllka [165]

The electric field between plates is 4000V/m.

An electric field (sometimes E-field) is the physical field that surrounds electrically charged particles and exerts force on all other charged particles in the field, either attracting or repelling them. It also refers to the physical field for a system of charged particles.

The value of the electric field has dimensions of force per unit charge. In the metre-kilogram-second and SI systems, the appropriate units are newtons per coulomb, equivalent to volts per metre.

The voltage between points A and B is

V=E.d

E =V/d  (uniform E- field only)  

where  d is the distance from A to B, or the distance between the plates.

Given:

distance d = 3 cm

voltage V = 120 V

Electric field E = V/d

                     E = 120 V / 3cm

                     E = 40 V / 1 cm               [ 1 cm = 1/100 m ]

                    E = 4000 V/m.

A 75kg hockey player is skating across the ice at a speed of 6.0m/s. What is the magnitude of the average force required to stop
liq [111]

Answer:

692.31 N

Explanation:

Applying,

F = ma............... Equation 1

Where F = Average force required to stop the player, m = mass of the player, a = acceleration of the player

But,

a = (v-u)/t............ Equation 2

Where v = final velocity, u = initial velocity, t = time.

Substitute equation 2 into equation 1

F = m(v-u)/t............ Equation 3

From the question,

Given: m = 75 kg, u = 6.0 m/s, v = 0 m/s (to stop), t = 0.65 s

Substitute these values into equation 3

F = 75(0-6)/0.65

F = -692.31 N

Hence the average force required to stop the player is 692.31 N
