Answer: The force constant k is 10600 kg/s^2

Step by step:

Use the law of energy conservation. When the elevator hits the spring, it has a certain kinetic and a potential energy. When the elevator reaches the point of still stand the kinetic and potential energies have been transformed to work performed by the elevator in the form of friction (brake clamp) and loading the spring.

Let us define the vertical height axis as having two points: h=2m at the point of elevator hitting the spring, and h=0m at the point of stopping.

The total energy at the point h=2m is:

E_{tot}=E_{kin}+E_{pot}\\E_{tot}= \frac{1}{2}mv^2+mg\Delta h = \frac{1}{2}2000 kg 4^2\frac{m^2}{s^2}+2000kg\, 9.8\frac{m}{s^2}2m=55200\,kg\frac{m^2}{s^2}

The total energy at the point h=0m is:

E_{tot}=E_{kin}+E_{pot}+Work=0+0+ Work\\E_{tot} =F_{friction}\Delta h+\frac{1}{2}k (\Delta h)^2=17000N\cdot 2m+\frac{1}{2}k\cdot 2^2 m^2

The two Energy values are to be equal (by law of energy conservation), which allows us to determine the only unknown, namely the force constant k:

17000N\cdot 2m+\frac{1}{2}k\cdot 2^2 m^2 = 55200 \,kg\frac{m^2}{s^2}\\k = \frac{55200-34000}{2}\,\frac{kg}{s^2}=10600\frac{kg}{s^2}

Consider a box sitting in the back of a pickup. The pickup accelerates to the right, and because the bed of the pickup is sticky
andreyandreev [35.5K]
The force would be coming from the right causing the box the lean/ slide to left, if it wasnt sticky.

If the frequency of the incoming light is increased, will the energy of the ejected electrons increase, decrease, or stay the sa
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

increase

Explanation:

According to Einstein's photoelectric equation; the energy of a photon striking a metal surface is related to the kinetic energy of the ejected photoelectron by the formula;

KE= hf - hfo

Where h is the planks constant, f and fo refer to the frequency of incident photon and the threshold frequency respectively.

Hence, we can clearly see from the foregoing that the kinetic energy of the ejected photoelectron is proportional to the frequency of the incident photon.

Hence, if the frequency of the incident photon is increased, the kinetic energy of the ejected photoelectron increases also.
