A real spring does not oscillate forever. Instead, it eventually comes to a stop. Does this violate the law of conservation of e

nergy? Explain why or why not.

It does not violate the law of conservation of energy. The oscillation stops when the energy is lost and the energy is lost because it becomes heat that is created by the air resistance and many other forces found in the surrounding of the oscillating spring.

Block A can slide relative to block B which, in turn, can slide on a perfectly smooth horizontal plane. If the initial velocity

Anna11 [10]

Answer:

the final velocity of the two blocks is $v = \frac{mv_o}{m+M}$

the distance that A slides relative to B is $S = \frac{v_o^2M}{2 \mu g (M+m)}$

Explanation:

From the diagram below;

acceleration of A relative to B is : $a = - ( \mu g + \frac{ \mu mg}{M})$

where

v = u + at

$0 = v_o + ( - \mu g - \frac{\mu m g }{M})t$

Making t the subject of the formula; we have:

$t = \frac{v_o M}{(\mu g )(M+m)}$

$v^2 = u^2 +2 as\\\\0^2 = v_o^2 - 2 (\mu g ) (\frac{M+m}{M})S\\\\$

$S = \frac{v_o^2M}{2 \mu g (M+m)}$ which implies the distance that A slides relative to B.

The final velocities of the two blocks can be determined as follows:

v = u + at

$v = v_o - \mu g \frac{v_oM}{\mu g (M+m)}\\\\v = \frac{\mu g mv_o}{m+M}\\\\$

$v = \frac{mv_o}{m+M}$

Thus, the final velocity of the two blocks is $v = \frac{mv_o}{m+M}$

According to Coulomb’s Law, the force between two charged objects is related to _____.

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

A.) the inverse of the square of the distance separating them

Explanation:

Coulombs law states that "the force of attraction between two charges is directly proportional to the product of the charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them."

Mathematically, F = kq1q2/r²

Where q1 and q2 are the charges

r is the distance between the charges.

According to the law, the force between two charged objects is related to the inverse of the square of the distance separating them.

An intravenous (IV) system is supplying saline solution to a patient at the rate of 0.06 cm3/s through a needle of radius 0.2 mm

horsena [70]

Answer:

Pressure applied to the needle is 7528 Pa

Explanation:

As we know by poiseuille's law of flow of liquid through a cylindrical pipe

the rate of flow through the pipe is given as

$Q = \frac{\Delta P \pi r^4}{8\eta L}$

now we know that

$Q = 0.06 \times 10^{-6} m^3/s$

radius = 0.2 mm

Length = 6.32 cm

$\eta = 1\times 10^{-3} Pa s$

now we have

$6 \times 10^{-8} = \frac{\Delta P \pi (0.2 \times 10^{-3})^4}{8(1 \times 10^{-3})6.32 \times 10^{-2}}$

$3.03 \times 10^{-11} = \Delta P 5.02 \times 10^{-15}$

$\Delta P = 6028 Pa$

now we have

$P - 1500 = 6028 Pa$

$P = 7528 Pa$

A particle of mass 4.00 kg is attached to a spring with a force constant of 100 N/m. It is oscillating on a frictionless, horizo

zloy xaker [14]

Solution :

Given :

Mass attached to the spring = 4 kg

Mass dropped = 6 kg

Force constant = 100 N/m

Initial amplitude = 2 m

Therefore,

a). $v_{initial} = A w$

$= 2 \times \sqrt{\frac{100}{4}}$

= 10 m/s

Final velocity, v at equilibrium position, v = 5 m/s

Now, $\frac{1}{2}(4+4)5^2 = \frac{1}{2} kA'$

A' = amplitude = 1.4142 m

b). $T=2 \pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$

m' = 2m

Hence, $T'=\sqrt2 T$

c). $\frac{\frac{1}{2}(4+4)5^2 + \frac{1}{2}\times 4 \times 10^2}{\frac{1}{2} \times 4 \times 10^2}$

$=\frac{1}{2}$

Therefore, factor $=\frac{1}{2}$

Thus, the energy will change half times as the result of the collision.
