A toy cannon uses a spring to project a 5.24-g soft rubber ball. The spring is originally compressed by 5.01 cm and has a force

constant of 8.08 N/m. When the cannon is fired, the ball moves 15.8 cm through the horizontal barrel of the cannon, and the barrel exerts a constant friction force of 0.031 0 N on the ball.With what speed does the projectile leave the barrel of the cannon?

Answer:

Speed will be equal to 1.40 m/sec

Explanation:

Mass of the rubber ball m = 5.24 kg = 0.00524 kg

Spring is compressed by 5.01 cm

So x = 5.01 cm = 0.0501 m

Spring constant k = 8.08 N/m

Frictional force f = 0.031 N

Distance moved by ball d = 15.8 cm = 0.158 m

Energy gained by spring

KE=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 8.08\times 0.0501^2=0.0101J

Energy lost due to friction

W=Fd=0.031\times 0.158=0.0048J

So remained energy to move the ball = 0.0101 - 0.0048 = 0.0052 J

This energy will be kinetic energy

\frac{1}{2}mv^2=0.0052

\frac{1}{2}\times 0.00524\times v^2=0.0052

v = 1.40 m/sec

HELP PLEASE!!!!!
MakcuM [25]

Answer:C

Explanation:All of the energy from the Sun that reaches the Earth arrives as solar radiation, part of a large collection of energy called the electromagnetic radiation spectrum. Solar radiation includes visible light, ultraviolet light, infrared, radio waves, X-rays, and gamma rays. Radiation is one way to transfer heat.

1. What is the acceleration of a car that goes from 20 Km/hr to 100 km/hr in 8 seconds?
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

10 :)

You have to divide the difference of speed and divide it by the time. So 100-20 would be 80, and if you divide that by 8 it would be 10.

Hope this helps.
