Answer:

16.1 m/s

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the law of conservation of energy.

At the beginning, the spring is compressed by x = 35 cm = 0.35 m, and it stores an elastic potential energy given by

U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

where k = 316 N/m is the spring constant. Once the block is released, the spring returns to its natural length and all its elastic potential energy is converted into kinetic energy of the block (which starts moving). This kinetic energy is equal to

K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

where m = 0.15 kg is the mass of the block and v is its speed.

Since the energy must be conserved, we can equate the initial elastic energy of the spring to the final kinetic energy of the block, and from the equation we obtain we can find the speed of the block:

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\v=\sqrt{\frac{kx^2}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{(316 N/m)(0.35 m)^2}{0.15 kg}}=16.1 m/s

Which of the following are basic principles that apply to circuits? Choose the 2 correct answers from the choices below.
marta [7]

The basic principles that apply to circuits is that electrons must receive energy from a source, and electrons transfer energy to perform some useful function.

<h3 /><h3>What is circuit?</h3>

Individual electronic components, like resistors, transistors, are connected by metallic wires or traces by which the electric current can flow to form a circuit design.

The basic principles that apply to circuits will be;

1. Electrons must receive energy from a source.

2. Electrons transfer energy to perform some useful function.

Hence, option 1 and 2 are correct.

A bar magnet is dropped toward a conducting ring lying on the floor. As the magnet falls toward the ring, does it move as a free
REY [17]

Explanation:

According to the Faraday-Lenz law, a conductive ring generates an induced current due to the change in the magnetic flux caused by the motion of the bar magnet. This induced current generates a magnetic field opposite to the magnetic field of the bar, generating an upward force that opposes the weight of the bar magnet, Therefore, it does not move as a freely  falling object.

If Galileo drops a cannon ball from the 60 meter high) Leaning Tower of Pisa, how fast will it be moving when it hits the ground
viva [34]

Answer:

When the ball hits the ground, the velocity will be -34 m/s.

Explanation:

The height and velocity of the ball at any time can be calculated using the following equations:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

v = v0 + g · t

Where:

y = height of the ball at time "t".

y0 = initial height.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

g = acceleration due to gravity. (-9.8 m/s² considering the upward direction as positive).

v = velocity at time "t".

If we place the origin of the frame of reference on the ground, when the ball hits the ground its height will be 0. Then using the equation of height, we can calculate the time it takes the ball to reach the ground:

y = y0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · g · t²

0 = 60 m + 0 m/s · t - 1/2 · 9.8 m/s² · t²

0 = 60 m - 4.9 m/s² · t²

-60 m / -4.9 m/s² = t²

t = 3.5 s

Now, with this time, we can calculate the velocity of the ball when it reaches the ground:

v = v0 + g · t

v = 0 m/s - 9.8 m/s² · 3.5 s

v = -34 m/s

When the ball hits the ground, the velocity will be -34 m/s.
