A spring 1.50 m long with force constant 448 N/m is hung from the ceiling of an elevator, and a block of mass 10.9 kg is attache

d to the bottom of the spring.
(a) By how much is the spring stretched when the block is slowly lowered to its equilibrium point? (Enter the magnitude only.) m
(b) If the elevator subsequently accelerates upward at 1.89 m/s², what is the position of the block, taking the equilibrium position found in part (a) as y = 0 and upwards as the positive y-direction. (Indicate the direction with the sign of your answer.) m
(c) If the elevator cable snaps during the acceleration, describe the subsequent motion of the block relative to the freely falling elevator. What is the amplitude of its motion?

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the extension in the spring be x .

restoring force = weight of block

kx = mg

x = \frac{10.9\times9.8}{448}

= 23.84 cm

b )

When the elevator is going upwards

Restoring force = mg + ma

k x₁ = 10.9 ( 9.8 + 1.89 )

x₁ = 28.44 cm

( y coordinate will  be - ( 28.44 - 23.84 ) = - 4.6 cm )

c ) When the cable snaps , both elevator and block undergo free fall . In this case apparent g = 0

Since the spring is stretched by 28.44 cm , a restoring force continues to act on the block which is equal to

.2844 x 448

= 127.41 N

So a net acceleration a will act on the block

a = 127.41 / 10.9

= 11.68 m / s²

The block will undergo SHM with amplitude equal to 28.44 cm .

What are non metals<br><br>​
Lisa [10]

Answer:

In chemistry, a nonmetal (or non-metal) is a chemical element that mostly lacks the characteristics of a metal. Physically, a nonmetal tends to have a relatively low melting point, boiling point, and density. ... Metalloids such as boron, silicon, and germanium are sometimes counted as nonmetals

The reactive force developed by a jet engine to push an airplane forward is called thrust, and the thrust developed by the engin
finlep [7]

The value of the thrust developed by the engine of a boeing 777 in N and Kgf are ;

i) 376616N

ii) 38430Kgf

<h3>What is force?</h3>

Force is a push or a pull. The reactive force always serve to balance the applied force. We are here asked to convert the  the thrust developed by the engine of a boeing 777 which is about 85400 lbf to the following units;

i) N

ii)kgf

Thus;

1 Ib = 0.45 Kg

1 lbf = 0.45 Kg * 9.8 m/s^2 = 4.41 N

We know that;

1 lbf = 4.41 N

85400 lbf = 85400 lbf. * 4.41 N/1 lbf

= 376616N

Again;

1 lbf = 0.45 Kgf

85400 lbf = 85400 lbf * 0.45 Kgf/1 lbf

= 38430Kgf

The specific heats of aluminum and iron are 0.214 and 0.107 calories per gram degrees Celsius​ [cal/(g degrees Upper C ​)] respe
tester [92]

Answer:

Answer for question "

The specific heats of aluminum and iron are 0.214 and 0.107 calories per gram degrees Celsius​ [cal/(g degrees Upper C ​)] respectively. If we add the same amount of energy to a cube of each material​ (of the same​ mass) and find that the temperature of the aluminum increases by 28 degrees Fahrenheit ​[degrees Upper F ​], how much will the iron temperature increase in degrees Fahrenheit ​[degrees Upper F ​]? "

Suppose that the terminal speed of a particular sky diver is 165 km/h in the spread-eagle position and 320 km/h in the nosedive
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

3.76

Explanation:

We are given that

Terminal speed in the spread -eagle position,v_t=165 km/h

Terminal speed in the nosedive position,v'_t=320km/h

We have to find the ratio of the effective cross-sectional area A in the slower position to that in the faster position.

We  know that

Area, A=\frac{2mg}{C\rho v^2_t}

A_{slower}=\frac{2mg}{C\rho(165)^2}

A_{faster}=\frac{2mg}{C\rho(320)^2}

\frac{A_{slower}}{A_{faster}}=\frac{(320)^2}{(165)^2}

\frac{A_{slower}}{A_{faster}}=3.76
