How many cubic feet are in a 55-gallon drum?

1 answer:

5 0

1 gallon = 231 cubic inches
1 cubic foot = 1728 cubic inches

   (55 gal) x (231 in³/gal) x (1 ft³/1728 in³)

   = (55 x 231 / 1728) ft³

   = 7.352 cubic feet (rounded)

Answer:

b) Nothing will happen, the sea saw will still be balanced.

Explanation:

b) Nothing will happen, the sea saw will still be balanced.

Reason:-

When two kids are balanced, the sum of torques on the seesaw will be zero.

if each kid, reduces their distances by half, then the torque of each kid will be half and the sum of torque of each on the seesaw will be zero.

Therefore the seesaw is balanced

In classical physics, consider a 2 kg block hanging on a spring with a spring constant of 50 N/m. Ignore air resistance. The blo

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

v = 0

Explanation:

This problem can be solved by taking into account:

- The equation for the calculation of the period in a spring-masss system

$T = \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$ ( 1 )

- The equation for the velocity of a simple harmonic motion

$x = \frac{2\pi }{T}Asin(\frac{2\pi }{T}t)$ ( 2 )

where m is the mass of the block, k is the spring constant, A is the amplitude (in this case A = 14 cm) and v is the velocity of the block

Hence

$T = \sqrt{\frac{2 kg}{50 N/m}} = 0.2 s$

and by reeplacing it in ( 2 ):

$v = \frac{2\pi }{0.2s}(14cm)sin(\frac{2\pi }{0.2s}(0.9s)) = 140\pi sin(9\pi ) = 0$

In this case for 0.9 s the velocity is zero, that is, the block is in a position with the max displacement from the equilibrium.

A force of 5N compresses a spring by 4cm. Find the force constant of the spring.

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

k = 1,250 N/m

Explanation:

Use the formula F=kx, with F=5N and x=0.04m

Then the spring constant (k) is 5/0.04
