A block of mass 0.249 kg is placed on top of a light, vertical spring of force constant 4 975 N/m and pushed downward so that th

e spring is compressed by 0.107 m. After the block is released from rest, it travels upward and then leaves the spring. To what maximum height above the point of release does it rise? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)

Answer:

h = 11.67 m

Explanation:

Mass, m = 0.249 kg

Spring constant, k = 4975 N/m

Compression, x = 0.107 m

Energy stored in the spring,W, is:

W = 0.5kx²

W = 0.5*4975*0.107²

W = 28.48N·m

The potential energy is given by the formula:

PE = mgh

PE = 0.249*9.8*h

PE = 2.4402h

According to energy conservation principle, Potential Energy = spring energy.

That is, PE = W

2.4402h = 28.48

h = 28.48/2.4402

h = 11.67 m

The volume of liquid flowing per second is called the volume flow rate Q and has the dimensions of [L]3/[T]. The flow rate of li
melamori03 [73]

Answer: n=4

Explanation:

We have the following expression for the volume flow rate Q of a hypodermic needle:

Q=\frac{\pi R^{n}(P_{2}-P_{1})}{8\eta L}  (1)

Where the dimensions of each one is:

Volume flow rate Q=\frac{L^{3}}{T}

Radius of the needle R=L

Length of the needle L=L

Pressures at opposite ends of the needle P_{2} and P_{1}=\frac{M}{LT^{2}}

Viscosity of the liquid \eta=\frac{M}{LT}

We need to find the value of n whicha has no dimensions, and in order to do this, we have to rewritte (1) with its dimensions:

\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi L^{n}(\frac{M}{LT^{2}})}{8(\frac{M}{LT}) L}  (2)

We need the right side of the equation to be equal to the left side of the equation (in dimensions):

\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi}{8} \frac{ L^{n}}{LT}  (3)

\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi}{8} \frac{ L^{n-1}}{T}  (4)

As we can see n must be 4 if we want the exponent to be 3:

\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi}{8} \frac{ L^{4-1}}{T}  (5)

Finally:

\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi}{8} \frac{ L^{3}}{T}  (6)

Which row shows what happens to the temperature of a solid as it melts and what happens to the temperature when
frez [133]

When ice melts, its temperature doesn't change ... ice at 32 degrees becomes water at 32 degrees.

When water boils, its temperature doesn't change ... water at 212 degrees becomes steam at 212 degrees.

The row that says both of these is row-D .

Find a glass jar with a screw-top metal lid. Close the lid snugly and put the jar into the refrigerator. Leave it there for abou
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

The lid becomes tighter

It becomes tighter because metals have a lower heat capacity than glass meaning their temperature drops (or increases) much faster than glass for the same energy change. So in this example, the metal will contract faster than the glass causing it to be more tighter around the glass.
