A block of mass 200g is oscillating on the end of a horizontal spring of spring constant 100 N/m and natural length 12 cm. When

malfutka [58]

In order to determine the acceleration of the block, use the following formula:

$F=ma$

Moreover, remind that for an object attached to a spring the magnitude of the force acting over a mass is given by:

$F=kx$

Then, you have:

$ma=kx$

by solving for a, you obtain:

$a=\frac{kx}{m}$

In this case, you have:

k: spring constant = 100N/m

m: mass of the block = 200g = 0.2kg

x: distance related to the equilibrium position = 14cm - 12cm = 2cm = 0.02m

Replace the previous values of the parameters into the expression for a:

$a=\frac{(\frac{100N}{m})(0.02m)}{0.2\operatorname{kg}}=10\frac{m}{s^2}$

Hence, the acceleration of the block is 10 m/s^2

A chunk of ice with a mass of 1.2 kg melts and absorbs 3.33 x 10³J of energy. Which best describes what has happened in this sys

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

- Its entropy increases.

Explanation:

Entropy is defined as a 'measure of the amount of energy in a physical system that cannot be used to do work.' It is also employed to denote randomness, disorder, or uncertainty of the arrangement/system. In the given system, the melting of ice denotes the 'increase in entropy' as the amount of energy unavailable to do work increases('absorbs 3.33 x 10³J of energy'). Thus, <u>this signifies that the entropy increases with a rise in temperature as it allows the substance to have greater kinetic energy</u>.

A car of mass m goes around a banked curve of radius r with speed v. If the road is frictionless due to ice, the car can still n

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

horizontal component of normal force is equal to the centripetal force on the car

Explanation:

As the car is moving with uniform speed in circle then the force required to move in the circle is towards the center of the circle

This force is due to friction force when car is moving in circle with uniform speed

Now it is given that car is moving on the ice surface such that the friction force is zero now

so here we can say that centripetal force is due to component of the normal force which is due to banked road

Now we have

$N sin\theta = \frac{mv^2}{R}$

$N cos\theta = mg$

so we have

$v = \sqrt{Rg tan\theta}$

so this is horizontal component of normal force is equal to the centripetal force on the car
