Answer:
k = 3.5 N/m
Explanation:
It is given that the time period the bob in pendulum is the same as its time period in spring mass system:


where,
k = spring constant = ?
g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
m = mass of bob = 125 g = 0.125 kg
l = length of pendulum = 35 cm = 0.35 m
Therefore,

<u>k = 3.5 N/m</u>
Answer:
8.049 MW
Explanation:
The expression for gravitational potential energy is given as
Ep = mgh............. Equation 1
Ep = gravitational potential energy, m = mass of water, h = height, g = acceleration due to gravity.
Given: m = 58.4×10³ kg, h = 20.1 m, g = 9.81 m/s²
Substitute into equation 1
Ep = 58.4×10³(20.1)(9.81)
Ep = 1.6098×10⁷ J.
If one half the gravitational potential energy of the water were converted to electrical energy
Electrical energy = Ep/2
Electrical energy = (1.6098×10⁷)/2
Electrical energy = 8.049×10⁶ J
In one seconds,
The power generated = 8.049×10⁶ W
Power generated = 8.049 MW
<h2>
Answer: 540 J</h2>
Explanation:
The Work
done by a Force
refers to the release of potential energy from a body that is moved by the application of that force to overcome a resistance along a path.
Now, when the applied force is constant and the direction of the force and the direction of the movement are parallel, the equation to calculate it is:
(1)
In this case both (the force and the distance in the path) are parallel (this means they are in the same direction), so the work
performed is the product of the force exerted to push the box
by the distance traveled
.
Hence:
(2)
Answer:
Explanation:
Given
Distance = 4.0m
Time = 5.0 mins = 300secs
Required
Average speed
Average speed = Distance/Time
Average speed = 4.0/300
Average speed = 0.01333m/secs
Hence the average speed of the snail is 0.01333m/s
