A horizontal spring with stiffness 0.4 N/m has a relaxed length of 11 cm (0.11 m). A mass of 21 grams (0.021 kg) is attached and
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

0.6983 m/s

Explanation:

k = spring constant of the spring = 0.4 N/m

L₀ = Initial length = 11 cm = 0.11 m

L = Final length = 27 cm = 0.27 m

x = stretch in the spring = L - L₀ = 0.27 - 0.11 = 0.16 m

m = mass of the mass attached = 0.021 kg

v = speed of the mass

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy of mass = Spring potential energy

(0.5) m v² = (0.5) k x²

m v² = k x²

(0.021) v² = (0.4) (0.16)²

v = 0.6983 m/s

gladu [14]

Wind Energy is the kind of energy will Cassie uses to power the boat.

What is wind energy?

The method of producing electricity using air or wind currents that naturally occur in the earth's atmosphere is known as wind energy (or wind power). Electricity is produced by modern wind turbines that harness the kinetic energy of the wind. Wind passing across the turbine's blades is the initial step.

What is the major problem with wind energy?

Wind energy has the potential to have negative environmental effects, including the possibility of reducing, fragmenting, or deteriorating habitat for wildlife, fish, and plants, as with all energy supply choices. Furthermore, flying animals like birds and bats may be harmed by turbine blades in operation.

An object propelled upwards with an acceleration of 2.0 m / s ^ 2 is launched from rest. After 6 seconds the fuel runs out. Dete
dezoksy [38]

Answer:43.34 m

Explanation:

Given

acceleration(a)=2 m/s^2

Initial Velocity(u)=0 m/s

After 6 s fuel runs out

Velocity after 6 s

v=u+at

v=0+2\times 6=12 m/s

After this object will start moving under gravity

height reached in first 6 s

s=ut+\frac{at^2}{2}

s=0+\frac{2\times 6^2}{2}

s=36 m

After fuel run out distance traveled in upward direction is

v^2-u^2=2as_0

here v=0

u=12 m/s

a=9.8 m/s^2

0-12^2=2(-9.8)(s)

s_0=\frac{144}{2\times 9.8}=7.34 m

s+s_0=36+7.34=43.34 m
