Answer:

1. 10.0 J

2. 0.742 m/s

3. 0.494 m/s

4. 0.0249 m

Explanation:

(1/4) The elastic energy in a spring is:

EE = ½ k x²

EE = ½ (502 N/m) (0.2 m)²

EE ≈ 10.0 J

(2/4) The energy in the spring is converted to kinetic energy in the block and work by friction.

EE = KE + W

EE = ½ m v² + Fd

10.0 J = ½ (8 kg) v² + (8 kg × 9.8 m/s² × 0.5) (0.2 m)

v ≈ 0.742 m/s

(3/4) Momentum is conserved.

Momentum before = momentum after

(8 kg) (0.742 m/s) = (8 kg + 4 kg) v

v ≈ 0.494 m/s

(4/4) The kinetic energy of the blocks is converted to work by friction.

KE = W

½ m v² = Fd

½ (8 kg + 4 kg) (0.494 m/s)² = ((8 kg + 4 kg) × 9.8 m/s² × 0.5) d

d ≈ 0.0249 m

Determine the magnitude of the resultant force FR=F1+F2FR=F1+F2. Assume that F1F1F_1 = 235 lblb and F2F2F_2 = 350 lb

Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

585lb

Explanation:

Given the formula for calculating the magnitude of the resultant force as;

$F_R = F_1 + F_2$

Given

$F_1 = 235 lb \ and \ F_2 = 350 lb\\F_R = 235lb + 350lb\\F_R = 585lb\\$

Hence the magnitude of the resultant force is 585lb

Using a horizontal force of 60 N, a wagon is pushed horizontally across the floor a distance of 12 meters at a constant speed of

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

a) The work done by the force is 720 joules, b) The power supplied by the force is 138 watts.

Explanation:

a) Since force is uniform and parallel to the direction of motion, the work ( $W$ ), in joules, done by the force ( $F$ ), in newtons, is defined by this formula:

$W = F\cdot s$ (1)

Where $s$ is the travelled distance, in meters.

If we know that $F = 60\,N$ and $s = 12\,m$ , then the work done by the force is:

$W = F\cdot s$

$W = (60\,N)\cdot (12\,m)$

$W = 720\,J$

The work done by the force is 720 joules.

b) And an expression for the power supplied by the force ( $\dot W$ ), in watts, is concieved by differentiating (1) in time:

$\dot W = F\cdot \dot s$

Where $\dot s$ is the speed of the wagon, in meters per second.

If we know that $F = 60\,N$ and $\dot s = 2.3\,\frac{m}{s}$ , then the power supplied by the force is:

$\dot W = F\cdot \dot s$

$\dot W = (60\,N)\cdot \left(2.3\,\frac{m}{s} \right)$

$\dot W = 138\,W$

The power supplied by the force is 138 watts.

A person riding on the roof of a freight train throws a ball forward. (a) If we ignore air drag and relative to the ground, is t

mina [271]

Answer:

Explanation:

A ball is thrown in forward direction by a person who is riding on the roof of the moving train.

-->If you neglected the air drag and relative to the ground, then the velocity of the ball is equal to the sum of the velocities of ball and the train.

-->Hence, the ball is moving faster.

-(b) Relative to the freight car, the ball moves at the same speed irrespective of train
