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}

Answer:

  • <u><em>1,230N</em></u>

Explanation:

<u>1. Name of the variables:</u>

   f:frequency\\\\ \omega:angular\text{ }speed\\\\ a_c:centripetal\text{ }acceleration\\\\ F_c:centripetal\text{ }force\\ \\ m:mass\\ \\ d:diameter\\ \\ r:radius\\ \\ g:gravitational\text{ }acceleration

<u>2. Formulae:</u>

         f=\dfrac{number\text{ }of\text{ }revolutions}{time}

          \omega=2\pi f

          a_c=\omega^2 r

           F_c=m\times a_c

<u>3. Solution (calculations)</u>

       f=\dfrac{1}{1.65s}=0.\overline{60}s^{-1}

       \omega=2\pi\times0.\overline{60}\approx 3.808rad/s

      a_c=(3.808rad/s)^2\times (3.74/2m)=27.12m/s^2

      F_c=45.2kg\times27.12m/s^2=1,225.67N\approx 1,230N

What subatomic particle acts like a mini-magnet?
Semenov [28]
 The subatomic particles that acts like a mini-magnet is electron. Electrons are negatively charged sub atomic particles in an atom. The electron spin is a property of an electron that makes it behave like it's spinning; a spinning electron produces a magnetic field that makes it behave like a tiny magnet in an atom.

The train travells at he speed of 225 km/2.5h
now
225km=225000m
2.5 hr=150min=9000s
=>avg sp of train is=225000/9000s=25m/s
