Answer:Work

Explanation:

When a spring is compressed the energy changes from kinetic to potential energy as Energy cannot be destroyed but can be transformed from one form to another.

This can be best explained with the help of work. Suppose a block with certain kinetic energy comes in contact to the spring its kinetic energy changes to Potential Energy of the spring or we can say that its Kinetic Energy is converted to Potential energy as the block does work on spring.  

Block compresses the spring by changing its length and it requires some work which is equal to change in its Potential Energy of spring.

Which is the force of repulsion between two positively-charged particles?
klio [65]
<span> answer>>>>electric force <<<<by the way i don't like physics but i answer this for you ^-^</span>


<span>This is because centripetal force is just the net force of a circular motion. There are no attractive or repulsive forces here. This is not the case here. </span>
<span>The gravitational force is a force reliant on mass and attraction of the masses. There are attractive forces here, but not really repulsive forces. </span>
<span>The electric force is the only one that would make sense because it has to do with a relationship between charges and includes both repulsive and attractive forces.</span>

Robin would like to shoot an orange in a tree with his bow and arrow. The orange is hanging yf=5.00 myf=5.00 m above the ground.
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

h' = 55.3 m

Explanation:

First, we analyze the horizontal motion of the projectile, to find the time taken by the arrow to reach the orange. Since, air friction is negligible, therefore, the motion shall be uniform:

s = vt

where,

s = horizontal distance between arrow and orange = 60 m

v = initial horizontal speed of the arrow = v₀ Cos θ

θ = launch angle = 30°

v₀ = launch speed = 35 m/s

Therefore,

60 m = (35 m/s)Cos 30° t

t = 60 m/30.31 m/s

t = 1.98 s

Now, we analyze the vertical motion to find the height if arrow at this time. Using second equation of motion:

h = Vi t + (1/2)gt²

where,

Vi = Vertical Component of initial Velocity = v₀ Sin θ = (35 m/s)Sin 30°

Vi = 17.5 m/s

Therefore,

h = (17.5 m/s)(1.98 s) + (1/2)(9.81 m/s²)(1.98 s)²

h = 34.6 m + 19.2 m

h = 53.8 m

since, the arrow initially had a height of y = 1.5 m. Therefore, its final height will be:

h' = h + y

h' = 53.8 m + 1.5 m

<u>h' = 55.3 m</u>
