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

Suppose two children push horizontally, but in exactly opposite directions, on a third child in a wagon. The first child exerts
wolverine [178]

Answer:

0.304 m/s2

Explanation:

If the first child is pushing with a force of 69N to the right and the 2nd child is pushing with a force of 91N to the left. Then the net pushing force is 91 - 69 = 22 N to the left. Subtracted by 15N friction force then the system of interest is subjected to F = 7 N net force tot he left.

We can use Newton's 2nd law to calculate the net acceleration of the system

a = F/m = 7 / 23 = 0.304 m/s^2

No if radiactive plutonium is burnt in the air it produces plutonium oxide.do we expect the oxide to be radiactive
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

A naturally radioactive element of the actinide metals series. Plutonium is used as a nuclear fuel, to produce radioisotopes for research, Plutonium dioxide is formed when plutonium or its compounds (except the phosphates) are ignited in air, and  Plutonium oxide fired at temperatures 600 C is difficult to rapidly.
