Answer:

66.5N

Explanation:

F = kx

Where F = force

K = spring constant

x = compression

Given

K = 950N/m

x = 7.0cm

F = ?

First convert the compression to meters .

7.0cm = 7.0 x 0.01

= 0.07 meters

Therefore

F = 950 x 0.07

= 66.5N

How high would a projectile go if it was launched from ground level with an initial speed of 26 m/s at an angle of 30 degrees ab
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Vy = 26 m/s sin 30 = 13 m/s      vertical speed

t = Vy / a = 13 m/s / 9.80 m/s^2 = 1.33 sec     time to reach Vy = 0

H = Vy t + 1/2 g t^2

H = 13 m/s * 1.33 sec - 1.33^2 * 9.8 / 2 m = 8.62 m

Initial velocity 10 m/s accelerates at 5 m/s for 2 seconds whats the final velocity
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

<em>The final velocity is 20 m/s.</em>

Explanation:

<u>Constant Acceleration Motion</u>

It's a type of motion in which the velocity of an object changes by an equal amount in every equal period of time.

Being a the constant acceleration, vo the initial speed, and t the time, the final speed can be calculated as follows:

v_f=v_o+at

The provided data is: vo=10 m/s, a=5\ m/s^2, t=2 s. The final velocity is:

v_f=10~m/s+5\ m/s^2\cdot 2\ s

v_f=20\ m/s

The final velocity is 20 m/s.

n a downhill ski race, surprisingly, little advantage is gained by getting a running start. (This is because the initial kinetic
Annette [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) starting from rest , so u = o and initial kinetic energy = 0 .

Let mass of the skier = m

Kinetic energy gained = potential energy lost

= mgh = mg l sinθ

= m x 9.8 x 70 x sin 30

= 343 m

Total kinetic energy at the base = 343 m  + 0 = 343 m .

b )

In this case initial kinetic energy = 1/2 m v²

= .5 x m x 2.5²

= 3.125 m

Total kinetic energy at the base

= 3.125 m  + 343 m

= 346.125 m

c ) It is not surprising as energy gained due to gravitational force by the earth is enormous . So component of energy gained due to gravitational force far exceeds the initial kinetic energy . Still in a competitive event , the fractional initial kinetic energy may be the deciding factor .
