Answer:

so initial speed of the rock is 30.32 m/s

correct answer is b. 30.3 m/s

Explanation:

given data

h = 15.0m

v = 25m/s

weight of the rock m = 3.00N  

solution

we use here work-energy theorem that is express as here

work = change in the kinetic energy    ..............................1

so it can be written as

work = force × distance     ...................2

and

KE is express as

K.E = 0.5 × m × v²  

and it can be written as

F × d = 0.5 × m × (vf)² - (vi)²      ......................3

here

m is mass and vi and vf is initial and final velocity

F = mg = m  (-9.8)  , d = 15 m and v{f} = 25 m/s

so put value in equation 3 we get

m  (-9.8) × 15 = 0.5 × m × (25)² - (vi)²

solve it we get

(vi)² =  919

vi = 30.32 m/s

so initial speed of the rock is 30.32 m/s

Find the average energy E for (a) An n-state system, in which a given state can have energy 0,,2,...,n . (b) A harmonic oscillat
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

a♦1  E_average = n E₀ / 2 , b) E_average= infinity

Explanation:

The energy values ​​form an arithmetic series, whose sum is

          S = n (a₁ + aₙ) / 2 = n (2a₁ + (n-1) r)/ 2

Where n is the number of terms, a₁ is the first term, aₙ the last term and r is the difference between two consecutive numbers in the series

          r = 2E₀ - 0 = 2E₀

Therefore the sum is

       S = n (0 + n E₀) / 2

      S = n² E₀ / 2

     

The average value is

         E_average = S / n

         E_average = n E₀ / 2

b) the case of harmonic oscillation

We have two possibilities.

- if we take a finite number and terms gives the same previous value

- If we take an infinite number of fears the series gives infinity and the average is also infinite

          E_average= infinity
