Answer:

a)At the mean position

b)At the extremes positions

Explanation:

Given that mass is having oscillation motion.

We know that

1. At the mean position -The velocity of the mass is maximum and the acceleration of the mass is minimum.The net force on the mass will be zero.

2. At the extreme position-The velocity of the mass is minimum and the acceleration of the mass is maximum.The net force on the mass will not be zero.

Therefore

a)At the mean position

b)At the extremes positions

Answer:

0.3677181864 m

Explanation:

u = Velocity = 1.5 m/s

$\theta$ = Angle = 20°

y = -20 cm

Velocity components

$u_x=ucos\theta\\\Rightarrow u_x=1.5cos20\\\Rightarrow u_x=1.40953\ m/s$

$u_y=usin\theta\\\Rightarrow u_y=1.5sin20\\\Rightarrow u_y=0.51303\ m/s$

Acceleration components

$a_x=0$

$a_y=-9.81\ m/s^2$

$y=u_yt+\dfrac{1}{2}a_yt^2\\\Rightarrow -0.2=0.51303\times t+\dfrac{1}{2}\times -9.81t^2\\\Rightarrow 4.905t^2-0.51303t-0.2=0$

$t=\frac{-\left(-0.51303\right)+\sqrt{\left(-0.51303\right)^2-4\cdot \:4.905\left(-0.2\right)}}{2\cdot \:4.905}, \frac{-\left(-0.51303\right)-\sqrt{\left(-0.51303\right)^2-4\cdot \:4.905\left(-0.2\right)}}{2\cdot \:4.905}\\\Rightarrow t=0.26088, -0.15629$

Time taken is 0.26088 seconds

$x=u_xt+\dfrac{1}{2}a_xt^2\\\Rightarrow x=1.40953\times 0.26088\\\Rightarrow x=0.3677181864\ m$

The distance the beetle travels on the ground is 0.3677181864 m

How does the position of an object relate to the energy stored in an object?

Kamila [148]

Answer:

Potential Energy

Explanation:

Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to it's position relative to some zero position. An object possesses gravitational potential energy if it is positioned at a height above (or below) the zero height.

fredd [130]

Answer:

The answer is "Including all three studies of 0s to 2s, that shift in momentum is equal".

Explanation:

Its shift in momentum doesn't really depend on the magnitude of its cars since the forces or time are similar throughout all vehicles.

Let's look at the speed of the car
