A 1.90-kg mass vibrating up and down on the end of a vertical spring has a maximum speed of 2.30 m/s. What is the total potentia

l energy of the mass on the spring when the mass is at either endpoint of its motion? NOTE: Assume that the potential energy of the mass on the vertical spring is zero when the mass is at the midpoint of its motion. Give your answer in joules.

Answer:

The answer to the question is;

The total potential energy of the mass on the spring when the mass is at either endpoint of its motion is 5.0255 Joules.

Explanation:

To answer the question, we note that the maximum speed is 2.30 m/s and the mass is 1.90 kg

Therefore the maximum kinetic energy of motion is given by

Kinetic Energy, KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^{2}

Where,

m = Attached vibrating mass = 1.90 kg

v = velocity of the string = 2.3 m/s

Therefore Kinetic Energy, KE = \frac{1}{2}×1.9×2.3² = 5.0255 J

From the law of conservation of energy, we have the kinetic energy, during the cause of the vibration is converted to potential energy when the mass is at either endpoint of its motion

Therefore Potential Energy PE at end point = Kinetic Energy, KE at the middle of the motion

That is the total potential energy of the mass on the spring when the mass is at either endpoint of its motion is equal to the maximum kinetic energy.

Total PE = Maximum KE = 5.0255 J.

A 3.0 kg block is pushed by a 14 N force. If µ = 0.6, will the block move?
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

The block will not move.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the frictional force. This can be obtained as follow:

Coefficient of friction (µ) = 0.6

Mass of block (m) = 3 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

Normal reaction (R) = mg = 3 × 10 = 30 N

Frictional force (Fբ) =?

Fբ = µR

Fբ = 0.6 × 30

Fբ = 18 N

From the calculations made above, the frictional force of the block is 18 N. Since the frictional force (i.e 18 N) is bigger than the force applied (i.e 14 N), the block will not move.

(a). If the temperature of a substance is increased the density of it will also increased. The temperature is directly proportional to the density because the molecular activity of the substance will be affected by the temperature

(b).The mass of the substance doesn't at all. Because the amount of matter inside the substance cannot be affected by the temperature except that its water
