A block–spring system vibrating on a frictionless, horizontal surface with an amplitude of 7.0 cm has an energy of 14 J. If the

block is replaced by one whose mass is twice the mass of the original block and the amplitude of the motion is again 7.0 cm, what is the energy of the system?

Answer:

E_T= 28J

Explanation:

The energy of Mass-Spring System the sum of the potential energy of the block plus the kinetic energy of the block:

E_T=U+K=\frac{1}{2} k \Delta x^2+\frac{1}{2} mv^2

Where:

\Delta x=Amplitude\hspace{3}or\hspace{3}d eformation\hspace{3} of\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} spring\\m=Mass\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}block\\k=Constant\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}spring\\v=Velocity\hspace{3}of\hspace{3}the\hspace{3}block

There are two cases, the first case is when the spring is compressed to its maximum value, in this case the value of the kinetic energy is zero, since there is no speed, so:

E_T=\frac{1}{2} k \Delta x^2\\\\14=\frac{1}{2} k7^2\\\\Solving\hspace{3} for\hspace{3} k\\\\k=\frac{28}{49} =\frac{4}{7}

The second case is when the block passes through its equilibrium position, in this case the elastic potential energy is zero since \Delta x=0, so:

E_T=\frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\14=\frac{1}{2} mv^2\\\\Solving\hspace{3} for\hspace{3} v\\\\v^2=\frac{28}{m}

Now, let's find the energy of the system when the block is replaced by one whose mass is twice the mass of the original block using the previous data:

E_T=U+K=\frac{1}{2} k \Delta x^2+\frac{1}{2} m_2v^2

Where in this case:

m_2=New\hspace{3}mass=Twice\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} mass \hspace{3}of\hspace{3} the\hspace{3} original=2m

Therefore:

E_T=\frac{1}{2} (\frac{4}{7} ) (7^2)+\frac{1}{2} (2m)(\frac{28}{m_2})=\frac{1}{2} (\frac{4}{7} ) (7^2)+\frac{1}{2} (2m)(\frac{28}{2m})=14+14=28J

The pH of pure water at 25°C is 7.0. The enthalpy change of the autoionization of water is +55.89 kJ/mol. What is the pH of pure
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

6.14

Explanation:

If the pH falls as temperature increases, this does not mean that water becomes more acidic at higher temperatures. A solution is acidic if there is an excess of hydrogen ions over hydroxide ions (i.e., pH < pOH). In the case of pure water, there are always the same concentration of hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions and hence, the water is still neutral (pH = pOH) - even if its pH changes.

The problem is that we are all familiar with 7 being the pH of pure water, that anything else feels really strange. Remember that to calculate the neutral value of pH from  Kw . If that changes, then the neutral value for pH changes as well. At 100°C, the pH of pure water is 6.14, which is "neutral" on the pH scale at this higher temperature. A solution with a pH of 7 at this temperature is slightly alkaline because its pH is a bit higher than the neutral value of 6.14.

Name the four major forces in the universe that act over long distance as I greater than the nucleus of an atom?
GalinKa [24]
Forces in the universe that act over long distance, meaning the distance is greater than the diameter of the nucleus of the atom are:

1. Electrostatic force or Coulomb force: Fc=(k*Q₁*Q₂)/r²,

2. Gravitational force: Fg=(G*m₁*m₂)/r²,

3. Magnetic force: Fm=qvB,

4. London dispersion force, also known as one of the van der Waals forces.
