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

Your pet hamster sits on a record player whose angular speed is constant. If he moves to a point twice as far from the center, t

baherus [9]

Answer:

doubles

Explanation:

The relationship between angular speed and linear speed in case of a circular motion is the following:

$v=\omega r$

where

v is the linear speed

$\omega$ is the angular speed

r is the distance from the centre of the circular path

In this proble, the pet hamster moves to a point twice as far from the center; this means that its distance from the centre, r', is doubled:

$r'=2r$

While the angular speed $\omega$ remains the same. Therefore, the new linear speed is

$v'=\omega r' = \omega (2r)=2 \omega r=2v$

So, the correct answer is

the linear speed doubles

A hydraulic lift raises a 2 000-kg automobile when a 500-N force is applied to the smaller piston. If the smaller piston has an

stiv31 [10]

Answer:

The cross-sectional area of the larger piston is 392 cm²

Explanation:

Given;

output mass of the piston, m₀ = 2000 kg

input force of the piston, F₁ = 500 N

input area of the piston, A₁ = 10 cm² = 0.001 m²

The output force is given by;

F₀ = m₀g

F₀ = 2000 x 9.8

F₀ = 19600 N

The cross-sectional area of the larger piston or output area of the piston will be calculated by applying the following equations;

$\frac{F_i}{A_i} = \frac{F_o}{A_o} \\\\A_o= \frac{F_o A_i}{F_i} \\\\A_o = \frac{19600*0.001}{500} \\\\A_o = 0.0392 \ m^2\\\\A_o = 392 \ cm^2$

Therefore, the cross-sectional area of the larger piston is 392 cm²

Determine the force of gravitational attraction between the earth (m = 5.98 x 10^24kg)

yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

F = 683.8 N

Explanation:

The gravitational force of attraction between the Earth and the student is given by Newton's Law of Gravitation as follows:

$F = \frac{Gm_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}$

where,

F = Force = ?

G = Universal gravitational constant = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²/kg²

m₁ = mass of Earth = 5.98 x 10²⁴ kg

m₂ = mass of student = 70 kg

r = distance between Earth and student = 6.39 x 10⁶ m

Therefore,

$F = \frac{(6.67\ x\ 10^{-11}\ Nm^2/kg^1)(5.98\ x\ 10^{24}\ kg)(70\ kg)}{(6.39\ x\ 10^6\ m)^2}\\$

F = 683.8 N

Rainfall occurs on the earth due to effect of gravity

Anna [14]

Answer:

Because Gravity is the force of attraction between two objects, and Earth's gravity pulls matter downward, toward its center. It pulls precipitation down from clouds and pulls water downhill. Gravity also moves air and ocean water. ... Gravity pulls denser air and water downward, forcing less dense air and water to move upward.

A glass of root beer with a scoop of ice cream floating on top and a straw sticking out.

jeka94

Answer:

The root beer exerts a force on all sides of the ice cream. These forces are all equal and cancel each other out. Gravity pushes downward on the ice cream. This can also be called the weight of the ice cream.
