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

shutvik [7]

Answer:

The rate of change of distance is defined as speed.

Explanation:

The speed is defined as the rate of change of distance.

Speed = distance/ time

When we know the distance and the time, we get the value of speed. So, e know that who is moving fast or slow.

hen a graph is pltted beteen the distance and time, the slope of the graph gives the value of speed. So, by checking the slopes, hoseslope ismore, the speed is more and thusit is moving faster.

So, i agree with the statement.

Tems11 [23]

Answer:

3.6 KJ

Explanation: Given that a 70-kg boy is surfing and catches a wave which gives him an initial speed of 1.6 m/s. He then drops through a height of 1.60 m, and ends with a speed of 8.5 m/s. How much nonconservative work (in kJ) was done on the boy

The workdone = the energy.

There are two different energies in the scenario - the potential energy (P.E ) and the kinetic energy ( K.E )

P.E = mgh

P.E = 70 × 9.8 × 1.6

P.E = 1097.6 J

P.E = 1.098 KJ

K.E = 1/2mv^2

K.E = 1/2 × 70 × 8.5^2

K.E = 2528.75 J

K.E = 2.529 KJ

The non conservative workdone = K.E + P.E

Work done = 1.098 + 2.529

Work done = 3.63 KJ

Therefore, the non conservative workdone is 3.6 KJ approximately
