A cleaver physics professor wants to create a situation where a block starts from rest at the top of a 31.0° inclined plane and

encounters a spring at the bottom of the incline. The spring has a constant 3.4 kN/m and the block's mass is 33.0 kg. How far does the block travel before hitting the spring, if the spring was compressed 37 cm in it's initial collision?

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the length of inclined plane be L .

work done by gravity on the block

= force x length of path

= mg sinθ x L , m is mass of the block , θ is inclination of path

This in converted into potential energy of compressed spring

1/2 k x² = mgL sin31  , k is force constant . x is compression

.5 x 3400 x .37² = 33 x9.8 x sin31 L

L = 1.4

Length of incline = 1.4 m .

A coin completes 18 spins in 12 seconds. The centripetal acceleration of the edge of the coin is 2.2 m/s2. The radius of the coi
stellarik [79]

Answer:

2.5 cm

Explanation:

Number of spins in 12 seconds = 18

Number of spins in 1 second = 18 / 12 = 1.5

Number of spins in one second is called frequency.

f = 1.5 rps

ac = 2.2 m/s^2

Let r be the radius of coin

Centripetal acceleration, ac = r x w^2

2.2 = r x ( 2 x 3.14 x 1.5) ^2

2.2 = r x 88.7364

r = 0.025 m = 2.5 cm

Write a short description of how the motion of the racers might change from the start of the race to the finish line
Ad libitum [116K]
The motion of the racers might change from the start because the pressure goes up so all the racer wants is to speed up and win, so when the racer first starts he or she is calm because he's not driving yet and when he or she is on his/hers way to he finish line he/she just wants to win and gets under pressure so he speeds up even more and drifts. Your welcome

Light enters water from air at an angle of 25° with the normal, Θ1. If water has an index of refraction of 1.33, determine Θ2.
vladimir1956 [14]
By Snell's law:

η = sini / sinr.        i = 25,  η = 1.33

1.33 = sin25° / sinr

sinr = sin25° / 1.33 = 0.4226/1.33 = 0.3177    Use a calculator.

r = sin⁻¹(0.3177)

r ≈ 18.52°

Option A.

God's grace.
