Answer:

Data:-m=0.88kg ,g=9.8m/sec² ,P.E=96J ,h=?

Explanation:

solution ,P.E=mgh here we have to find h so h=P.E/mg ,h=96/0.88×9.8 ,h=96/8.624=11.131m and if you want to verify so just put the value of h in same formula, likewise :-P.E=mgh ,P.E=0.88×9.8×11.131=96J so we got the same value of P.E as it is given the question (verified).

An ore car of mass 39000 kg starts from rest and rolls downhill on tracks from a mine. At the end of the tracks, 19 m lower vert

Answer:

The compression in the spring is 5.88 meters.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the car, m = 39000 kg

Height of the car, h = 19 m

Spring constant of the spring, $k=4.2\times 10^5\ N/m$

We need to find the compression in the spring in stopping the ore car. It can be done by balancing loss in gravitational potential energy and the increase in elastic energy. So,

$mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2$

x is the compression in spring

$x=\sqrt{\dfrac{2mgh}{k}} \\\\x=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 39000\times 19\times 9.8}{4.2\times 10^5}} \\\\x=5.88\ m$

So, the compression in the spring is 5.88 meters.

Is it possible to calculate the displacement based on an elapsed time from a position time graph?

Nataly [62]

No I don’t think so. But it worth a try tho. Try it out.

What fraction of the total energy of a SHO is kinetic when the displacement is one third the amplitude

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

The fraction of kinetic energy to the total energy is $\frac{K}{T}=\frac{8}{9}$ .

Explanation:

displacement is one third of the amplitude.

Let the amplitude is A.

x= A/3

The kinetic energy of the body executing SHM is

$K = 0.5 mw^2(A^2 - x^2)\\\\K = 0.5 m w^2 \left ( A^2 -\frac{A^2}{9} \right )\\\\K = 0.5 mw^2\times \frac{8A^2}{9}......(1)$

The total energy is

$T =0.5 mw^2A^2 ..... (2)$

Divide (1) by (2)

$\frac{K}{T}=\frac{8}{9}$

That is right because base*length is how you get the height
