What is hooke's law? Also what does it say about how elastic materials respond to force? Explain.

1 answer:

3 0

It states that the force F needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance X is proportional to that distance.

For elastic materials, they extend more in same amount of force, (as they are directly proportional), due to it's elastic nature (presence of large deforming force)

Hope this helps!

Answer: 42

Explanation:

I will answer this in English.

We know that the apple needs 5 seconds to reach the ground.

Each floor of the building has a height of 2.88m.

Now, when we drop something, the only force acting on the object is the gravitational one, so the acceleration of the apple is:

a = -g

for the velocity, we integrate the acceleration over time, and as the apple is dropped, we do not have any initial velocity, so we do not have a constant in the integration:

v = -g*t

for the position we integrate again, now we have an initial height H, so the position is:

p = (-g/2)*t^2 + H

now the apple hits the ground when p = 0, so we can solve this equation to find H.

i will use g = 9.8m/s^2

0 = (-4.9m/s^2)*(5s)^2 + H

H = 122.5 m

now knowing H, we can divide it by the height of a floor in the building and get the number of the floor.

N = 122.5m/2.88m = 42.5

this means that the apple was dropped in the floor 42 (the 0.5 means that the apple was not right where the floor 42 starts, it was dropped around the middle of the floor 42)

A particle moving along the x-axis has a position given by m, where t is measured in s. What is the magnitude of the acceleratio

8090 [49]

Question:

A particle moving along the x-axis has a position given by x=(24t - 2.0t³)m, where t is measured in s. What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the particle at the instant when its velocity is zero

Answer:

24 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

x=(24t - 2.0t³)m

First find velocity function v(t):

v(t) = ẋ(t) = 24 - 2*3t²

v(t) = ẋ(t) = 24 - 6t²

Find the acceleration function a(t):

a(t) = Ẍ(t) = V(t) = -6*2t

a(t) = Ẍ(t) = V(t) = -12t

At acceleration = 0, take time as T in velocity function.

0 =v(T) = 24 - 6T²

Solve for T

$T = \sqrt{\frac{-24}{6}} = \sqrt{-4} = -2$

Substitute -2 for t in acceleration function:

a(t) = a(T) = a(-2) = -12(-2) = 24 m/s

Acceleration = 24m/s

The change in momentum experienced by a object is equivalent to the...

Papessa [141]

Answer: C (impulse acting on the object)

The momentum is defined as it is the impulse acting on the force . Change in momentum is known as Impulse. Impulse is used to increase or decrease the momentum of object.

From Newtons II law

F = m. a

= m. v/t since a = rate of change of velocity.

F . t = m . v

F . t is known as impulse momentum
