(a) 392 N/m
Hook's law states that:
(1)
where
F is the force exerted on the spring
k is the spring constant
is the stretching/compression of the spring
In this problem:
- The force exerted on the spring is equal to the weight of the block attached to the spring:
- The stretching of the spring is
Solving eq.(1) for k, we find the spring constant:
(b) 17.5 cm
If a block of m = 3.0 kg is attached to the spring, the new force applied is
And so, the stretch of the spring is
And since the initial lenght of the spring is
The final length will be
Answer:
two people who are not going to be able to make it to class today because of the day and then I will be there at the house and then we can go
A textbook would hit the ground first
Factors:
-Textbook weighs most
-Pillow is flat and fluffy not very aerodynamic) also is very light
-Paper airplane will glide to the ground do to its wings and will hit the ground last
Answer:
The energy dissipated as the puck slides over the rough patch is 1.355 J
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the hockey puck, m = 0.159 kg
initial speed of the puck, u = 4.75 m/s
final speed of the puck, v = 2.35 m/s
The energy dissipated as the puck slides over the rough patch is given by;
ΔE = ¹/₂m(v² - u²)
ΔE = ¹/₂ x 0.159 (2.35² - 4.75²)
ΔE = -1.355 J
the lost energy is 1.355 J
Therefore, the energy dissipated as the puck slides over the rough patch is 1.355 J
