Which of the following correctly shows the chain of energy transfers that create surface currents on the ocean?

A 50.0-g object connected to a spring with a force constant of 35.0 n/m oscillates with an amplitude of 4.00 cm on a frictionles

Dimas [21]

A) The total energy of the system is sum of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy:
$E=K+U= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}kx^2$
where
m is the mass
v is the speed
k is the spring constant
x is the elongation/compression of the spring

The total energy is conserved, so we can calculate its value at any point of the motion. If we take the point of maximum displacement:
$x=A=4.00 cm = 0.04 m$
then the velocity of the system is zero, so the total energy is just potential energy, and it is equal to
$E=U= \frac{1}{2}kA^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.04 m)^2=0.028 J$

b) When the position of the object is
$x=1.00 cm = 0.01 m$
the potential energy of the system is
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.01 m)^2 = 1.75 \cdot 10^{-3} J$
and so the kinetic energy is
$K=E-U=0.028 J - 1.75 \cdot 10^{-3}J =0.026 J$
since the mass is $m=50.0 g=0.05 kg$ , and the kinetic energy is given by
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
we can re-arrange the formula to find the speed of the object:
$v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 0.026 J}{0.05 kg} }=1.02 m/s$

c) The potential energy when the object is at
$x=3.00 cm=0.03 m$
is
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.03 m)^2 =0.016 J$
Therefore the kinetic energy is
$K=E-U=0.028 J-0.016 J = 0.012 J$

d) We already found the potential energy at point c, and it is given by
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.03 m)^2 =0.016 J$

Answer:

The image is formed at a ‘distance of 16.66 cm’ away from the lens as a diminished image of height 3.332 cm. The image formed is a real image.

Solution:

The given quantities are

Height of the object h = 5 cm

Object distance u = -25 cm

Focal length f = 10 cm

The object distance is the distance between the object position and the lens position. In order to find the position, size and nature of the image formed, we need to find the ‘image distance’ and ‘image height’.

The image distance is the distance between the position of convex lens and the position where the image is formed.

We know that the ‘focal length’ of a convex lens can be found using the below formula

1f=1v−1u\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{u}

f

Here f is the focal length, v is the image distance which is known to us and u is the object distance.

The image height can be derived from the magnification equation, we know that

Magnification=h′h=vu\text {Magnification}=\frac{h^{\prime}}{h}=\frac{v}{u}Magnification=

h

v

Thus,

h′h=vu\frac{h^{\prime}}{h}=\frac{v}{u}

First consider the focal length equation to find the image distance and then we can find the image height from magnification relation. So,

1f=1v−1(−25)\frac{1}{f}=\frac{1}{v}-\frac{1}{(-25)}

So, the image height will be

=−3.332 cm

Thus the image is formed at a distance of 16.66 cm away from the lens as a diminished image of height 3.332 cm. The image formed is a ‘real image’.

How many times farther is Proxima Centauri from the sun than is earth from the sun

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Of the three stars in the system, the dimmest - called Proxima Centauri - is actually the nearest star to the Sun. The two bright stars, called Alpha Centauri A and B form a close binary system; they are separated by only 23 times the Earth - Sun distance.

a particle moves at a constant speed in a circular path. the instantaneous velocity and instantaneous acceleration vectors are:

Lilit [14]

The instantaneous velocity always tangential to circular path and instantaneous acceleration always points towards the center of circle.

What is instantaneous?

The definition of instantaneous velocity is the rate of change of location during a time that is virtually zero .The replica was. The definition of instantaneous velocity is the speed of a moving item at a certain instant in time.

The rate of change of location during a relatively brief period of time is known as instantaneous velocity.

In the limit when the time (and thus the displacement) between the two places approaches zero, the instantaneous acceleration is the average acceleration between two points on the route.

so, both of them are perpendicular to each other.

To learn about instantaneous velocity
