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
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

The velocity is 60 km/hr.

Explanation:

<h3><u>Given:</u></h3>

Displacement (d) = 480 km = 48000 m

Time (t) = 8 Hours = 480 minute

Velocity (v) = ?

Now,

Velocity = Displacement ÷ Time

v = d/t

v = 480/8

v = 60 km/hr

Thus, The velocity is 60 km/hr.

Solve for the BMI weight 58kg Height 1.61​
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

BMI= weight/(height × height)          ; weight in kilogram and height in metter

     = 58kg / (1.61m  × 1.61m )

     = (58/ 2.5921) kg/m^{2}

     = 22.375  kg/m^{2}

     ≈ 22.4 kg/m^{2}
