How is elastic energy related to mechanical energy?

Physics
1 answer:
djyliett [7]3 years ago

Elastic energy is potential energy and mechanical energy is kinetic energy.

Many times, elastic energy is a consequence of mechanical energy. When energy is transferred to an object through mechanical energy, it can often displace or deform the object. This stored energy because of the deformation is called elastic energy.

On a touchdown attempt, 95.00 kg running back runs toward the end zone at 3.750 m/s. A 113.0 kg line-backer moving at 5.380 m/s
dsp73

Answer:

(a) 1.21 m/s

(b) 2303.33 J, 152.27 J

Explanation:

m1 = 95 kg, u1 = - 3.750 m/s, m2 = 113 kg, u2 = 5.38 m/s

(a) Let their velocity after striking is v.

By use of conservation of momentum

Momentum before collision = momentum after collision

m1 x u1 + m2 x u2 = (m1 + m2) x v

- 95 x 3.75 + 113 x 5.38 = (95 + 113) x v

v = ( - 356.25 + 607.94) / 208 = 1.21 m /s

(b) Kinetic energy before collision = 1/2 m1 x u1^2 + 1/2 m2 x u2^2

                                               = 0.5 ( 95 x 3.750 x 3.750 + 113 x 5.38 x 5.38)

                                               = 0.5 (1335.94 + 3270.7) = 2303.33 J

Kinetic energy after collision = 1/2 (m1 + m2) v^2                

                                                = 0.5 (95 + 113) x 1.21 x 1.21 = 152.27 J

according to newton's third law, when a horse pulls on a cart, the cart pulls back on the horse with an equal force on the horse
Debora [2.8K]
Based on Newton's principle, whenever objects A and B interact with each other, they exert forces upon each other.

When a horse pulls on a cart, t<span>he horse exerts a force only to the cart. But that force applies only to the cart, not to the horse.
 
The cart in turn exerts a force on the horse. But that force applies only to the horse, not the cart also.
</span>
There are two forces resulting from this interaction - a force on the horse and a force on the cart. T<span>he net force on the cart remains as it was --- a positive force in the direction of the horse's movement. Therefore, the cart begins to accelerate and move.</span><span>

When a mass of 0.350 kg is attached to a vertical spring and lowered slowly, the spring stretches 12.0 cm. The mass is now displ
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The period is T =  0.700 \ s

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

    The mass is m =  0.350  \ kg

     The extension of the spring is  x =  12.0 \ cm = 0.12 \ m

       

The spring constant for this is mathematically represented as

       k  = \frac{F}{x}

Where F is the force on the spring which is mathematically evaluated as

       F  =  mg  =  0.350 * 9.8

       F  =3.43 \ N

So  

    k  = \frac{3.43 }{ 0.12}

    k  = 28.583 \ N/m

The period of oscillation is mathematically evaluated as

      T =  2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }

substituting values

     T =  2  *  3.142*  \sqrt{\frac{0.35 }{28.583} }

     T =  0.700 \ s
