Answer:
3.258 m/s
Explanation:
k = Spring constant = 263 N/m (Assumed, as it is not given)
x = Displacement of spring = 0.7 m (Assumed, as it is not given)
= Coefficient of friction = 0.4
Energy stored in spring is given by
As the energy in the system is conserved we have
The speed of the 8 kg block just before collision is 3.258 m/s
Answer:
Explanation:
They traveled this distance in 2 parts, essentially. Part 1 had an average speed for a certain number of hours, part 2 had an average speed for a certain number of hours, and those 2 parts taken together took them a distance of 364 km. In equation form, that looks like this:
km/hr part 1 + km/hr part 2 = 364 km
Now we need to find each part on the left side of that equation. Part 1 first:
We traveled 65 km/hr for 2 hours, so that took us
and canceling out the hour label, we have that in part 1 we got
65(2) = 130 km. Good. Now onto the second part, where our unknown is.
We traveled 78 km/hr the second part for x hours, so that took us
and canceling out the hour label, we have that in part 2 we got
78x km. Now we can fill in the main equation (the one in bold print)
130 km + 78x km = 364 km and subtracting 130 km from both sides:
78x km = 234 km and dividing by 78 km:
x = 3 hours. Part 2 took 3 hours. Part 1 took 2 hours, so the whole trip took 5 hours.
