Answer:

The spring constant required = 949.2 N/m

Explanation:

The energy stored in the spring is converted to kinetic energy of the projectiles fired.

Energy stored in spring's = kx²/2

Kinetic energy of bullets = mv²/2

k = spring constant = ?

x = maximum compression of the spring = 8 cm = 0.08 m

m = mass of projectiles fired = 3.0 g = 0.003 kg

v = velocity of projectiles fired = 45.0 m/s

kx² = mv²

k (0.08²) = 0.003 (45²) = 6.075

k = 949.2 N/m

The spring constant required = 949.2 N/m

If Fg=mg solve for g
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:Fg = mg however newtons second law states that the net force acting on an object is equal to it's mass times it's acceleration so what allows us to say that Fg = mg because certainly not for every single situation the net force is going to equal to the force of gravity please explain... what allows us to say Fg = mg

Football player 1 has a mass of 80 kg and a velocity of 2 m/s east while player 2 has a mass of 70 kg and a velocity of 3 m/s we
sukhopar [10]

The total momentum of the system is equal to 50 Kgm/s.

<u>Given the following data:</u>

  • Mass 1 = 80 kg
  • Velocity 1 = 2 m/s east.
  • Mass 2 = 70 kg
  • Velocity 2 = 3 m/s west.

To determine the total momentum of the system:

Mathematically, momentum is given by the formula;

Momentum = mass \times velocity

<u>For Football player 1:</u>

Momentum = 80 \times 2

Momentum 1 = 160 Kgm/s.

<u>For Football player 2:</u>

Momentum = 70 \times 3

Momentum 1 = 210 Kgm/s.

Now, we can calculate the total momentum of the system:

Total\;momentum = momentum \;2 - momentum \;1\\\\Total\;momentum = 210-160

Total momentum = 50 Kgm/s.

<u>Note:</u> We subtracted because the football players were moving in opposite directions.
