A person wants to determine the spring constant of an exercise stretch cord. He pulls the cord with a force probe that exerts a

70-N force on the cord, causing it to stretch 20cm. Using the Hooke's law find the spring constant of the cord. Assume that the stretch does not exceed the elastic range of the material.

Answer:

350 N/M

Explanation:

  • According to Hook's law Force is directly proportional to  extended length in a substance behind elastic region.

Here for a force of 70 N a elongation of 20 cm is observed

⇒

  • Force ∝ extension

force = k × extension

k =\frac{force}{extension}

extension = 20 cm = 0.2 m.

k = \frac{70}{0.2} = 350 N/M

Answer:

350 N/m

Explanation:

If we are assuming the stretch does not exceed the elastic range of the material, then by Hooke's law the spring constant of the cord is simply the ratio between the force 70N acting on the cord to stretch 20cm or 0.2m

k = 70 / 0.2 = 350 N/m

The spring constant is 350 N/m

A manufacturer of CD-ROM drives claims that the player can spin the disc as frequently as 1200 revolutions per minute.
Leya [2.2K]

a. 7.0 m/s

First of all, we need to convert the angular speed (1200 rpm) from rpm to rad/s:

\omega = 1200 \frac{rev}{min} \cdot \frac{2\pi rad/rev}{60 s/min}=125.6 rad/s

Now we know that the row is located 5.6 cm from the centre of the disc:

r = 5.6 cm = 0.056 m

So we can find the tangential speed of the row as the product between the angular speed and the distance of the row from the centre of the circle:

v=\omega r = (125.6 rad/s)(0.056 m)=7.0 m/s

b.  875 m/s^2

The acceleration of the row of data (centripetal acceleration) is given by

a=\frac{v^2}{r}

where we have

v = 7.0 m/s is the tangential speed

r = 0.056 m is the distance of the row from the centre of the trajectory

Substituting numbers into the formula, we find

a=\frac{(7.0 m/s)^2}{0.056 m}=875 m/s^2

PART ONE
Helga [31]

Answer:

1.129×10⁻⁵ N

1.295 m

Explanation:

Take right to be positive.  Sum of forces on the 31.8 kg mass:

∑F = GM₁m / r₁² − GM₂m / r₂²

∑F = G (M₁ − M₂) m / r²

∑F = (6.672×10⁻¹¹ N kg²/m²) (516 kg − 207 kg) (31.8 kg) / (0.482 m / 2)²

∑F = 1.129×10⁻⁵ N

Repeating the same steps, but this time ∑F = 0 and we're solving for r.

∑F = GM₁m / r₁² − GM₂m / r₂²

0 = GM₁m / r₁² − GM₂m / r₂²

GM₁m / r₁² = GM₂m / r₂²

M₁ / r₁² = M₂ / r₂²

516 / r² = 207 / (0.482 − r)²

516 (0.482 − r)² = 207 r²

516 (0.232 − 0.964 r + r²) = 207 r²

119.9 − 497.4 r + 516 r² = 207 r²

119.9 − 497.4 r + 309 r² = 0

r = 0.295 or 1.315

r can't be greater than 0.482, so r = 0.295 m.

A car of mass 1600 kg can just be lifted what is the least force that the electronicmagnet must use to lift the car ?
Mkey [24]

The car's mass is 1600 kg.

Its weight is (mass) x (gravity).  

On Earth, that's (1600 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)  =  15,680 Newtons.

At the moment, that's the only force acting on the car, directed downward and provided by gravity.

If you want to lift the car, then the net force has to be directed upward, and must either exactly cancel or exceed the force of gravity.

So the minimum force required to lift the car is <em>15,680 Newtons</em>, directed vertically upward.
