A ring is attached at the center of the underside of a trampoline. A sneaky teenager crawls under the trampoline and uses the ri

ng to pull the trampoline slowly down while his 79-kg mother is sleeping on it. When he releases the trampoline, she is launched upward. As she passes through the position at which she was before her son stretched the trampoline, her speed is 2.5 m/s .

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Mass of mother m=79\ kg

Mother is released with a speed of v=2.5\ m/s

Assuming we need to find elastic Potential energy stored in Trampoline

Kinetic energy acquired  by Mother comes from Elastic Potential Energy stored in the spring

I.e. Elastic Potential Energy=Kinetic Energy of mother

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

E=\frac{1}{2}\times 79\times 2.5^2=246.875\ J

So 246.875 J of Energy is stored in the trampoline as he pull the ring

Give an example of when your average speed would be higher than instantaneous speed
brilliants [131]

When I drive to the office, I drive through two school zones,
and four intersections that are controlled by traffic lights.

My average speed for the trip is higher than my instantaneous
speed is at any point in the school zones, or at any time when
I'm waiting for a red light to change.

What does K stand for in Hookes law?
wlad13 [49]
So Hooke's law says that that law is proportional to how much I stretch the spring. Alright. So f=kx<span>. x is the length of the spring now minus its length when it's relaxed and nobody's pulling on it. k is a constant called the spring constant.</span>

MGS and later orbiters found spectral evidence for what minerals on the Martian surface? Check all that apply.
slamgirl [31]

Mars Global Surveyors (MGS) and later orbiters found the following  minerals on the  Martian surface;

  • Phyllosilicates
  • Carbonate
  • Sulfates
  • Iron oxide

The Mars Global Surveyors (MGS) and later orbiters suggest that the Martian crust contains a higher percentage of volatile elements such as Sulphur and chlorine than the Earth's crust does.

These scientists also conclude that the most abundant chemical elements  in the Martian crust are those found in Igneous rock.

These elements include the following;

  • Silicon,
  • Oxygen,
  • Iron,
  • Magnesium,
  • Aluminum,
  • Calcium, and
  • Potassium.

They also, suggest that hydrogen is found in ice (water) while carbon is found in carbon dioxide and carbonates.

From the given options the minerals found in Martian surface include;

  • Phyllosilicates ------ these are sheet of silicate minerals
  • Carbonate
  • Sulfates
  • iron oxide

Pascal has 96 miles remaining to complete his cycling trip. If he reduced his current speed by 4 miles per hour, the remainder o
Verdich [7]

Answer:

V = 20 miles /sec

Explanation:

We have remaining distance   =  d  = 96 miles

Lets call  Pascal velocity  V in miles per hour

Now if he increases his velocity by  50 % (equivalent to multiply by 1.5 ) he will need a time t₁ to arrive then as V = d/t

1.5* V  = d/ t₁      ⇒   1.5 * V  =  96 /t₁

And in the case of reducing his velocity

(V / 4) = d/ (t₁ + 16 )     ⇒  V * (t₁ + 16 ) = 4*d     ⇒ V*t₁ + 16*V = 384

So we a 2 equation system with two uknown variables

1.5*V = 96/t₁      (1)

V*t₁  + 16*V = 384     (2)

We solve  from equation    (1)      t₁  = 64/V

And by substitution   in equation (2)

V * (64/V) + 16* V = 384

64  + 16 *V  = 384         ⇒   16*V = 320      ⇒  V= 320/16

V = 20 miles /sec
