Answer:

a   W_{3.5} = 490 \  J

b  W_{2.5} =  250 \  J

Explanation:

Generally the force constant is mathematically represented as

       k  = \frac{F}{x}

substituting values given in the question

=>   k  = \frac{16}{0.2}

=>   k  =  80 \ N /m

Generally the workdone  in stretching the spring 3.5 m is mathematically represented as

       W_{3.5} =  \frac{1}{2}  *  k  *  (3.5)^2

=>     W_{3.5} =  \frac{1}{2}  *  80  *  (3.5)^2

=>    W_{3.5} = 490 \  J

Generally the workdone  in compressing the spring 2.5 m is mathematically represented as

        W_{2.5} =  \frac{1}{2}  *  k  *  (2.5)^2

=>      W_{2.5} =  \frac{1}{2}  *  80 *  (2.5)^2

=>       W_{2.5} =  250 \  J

What is the speed of a wave with a frequency of 6 Hz and a wavelength of 12 m? No links
myrzilka [38]

72 m/s

Explanation:

Given,

Frequency ( f ) = 6 Hz

Wavelength ( λ ) = 12 m

To find : -

Speed ( v ) = ?

Formula : -

v = f x λ

v

= 6 x 12

= 72 m/s

Therefore,

the speed of a wave with a frequency of 6 Hz and a wavelength of 12 m is 72 m/s.

The coefficient of kinetic friction between an object and the surface upon which it is sliding is 0. 10. The mass of the object
lilavasa [31]

The force of friction is 78.4 N

What is force of friction?

Frictional force is the force created when two surfaces come into contact and slide against each other. it is given by the equation:

F_{f} = μ * F_{n}

where,

F_{f} = force of friction

μ = coefficient of friction

F_{n} = normal force

Given,

μ = 0.10,  m = 8.0 kg

We know,

F_{n} = mg

F_{n} = 8.0 * 9.8\\\\ F_{n} = 78.4 N

Subsituing the values in equation:

F_{f} = μ * F_{n}

F_{f} = 0.10 * 78.4 \\\\F_{f} = 7.84 N

The force of friction is 78.4 N.

With what minimum speed must you toss a 200 g ball straight up to just touch the 12-m-high roof of the gymnasium if you release
masha68 [24]

Answer:

v = 14.41 m/s

Explanation:

It is given that,

mass of the ball, m = 200 g = 0.2 kg

Height of the roof, h = 12 m

The ball is tossed 1.4 m above the ground, h' = 1.4 m

Let v is the minimum speed with which the ball is tossed. Using the conservation of energy to find it as :

E_p=E_k

mg(h-h')=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

g(h-h')=\dfrac{1}{2}v^2

v=\sqrt{2g(h-h')}

v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8(12-1.4)}

v = 14.41 m/s

So, the minimum speed with which the ball is thrown straight up is 14.41 m/s. Hence, this is the required solution.
