The mass on the spring is 0.86 kg

Explanation:

The period of a mass-spring system is given by the equation

$T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}$

where

m is the mass

k is the spring constant

In this problem, we have:

k = 88.7 N/m is the spring constant

The system makes 15 oscillations in 9.24 s: therefore, the period of the system is

$T=\frac{9.24}{15}=0.62 s$

Now we can re-arrange the first equation to solve for the mass:

$m=k(\frac{T}{2\pi})^2=(88.7)(\frac{0.62}{2\pi})^2=0.86 kg$

Answer:

The change in gravitational potential energy of the climber-Earth system is $\Delta PE = 396900 \ J$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of the hiker is $m = 75 \ kg$

The time taken is $T = 2 \ hr = 2 * 3600 = 7200 \ s$

The vertical elevation after time T is $H = 540 \ m$

The change in gravitational potential is mathematically represented as

$\Delta PE = mgH$

here g is the acceleration due to gravity with value $g = 9.8 \ m/s^2$

substituting values

$\Delta PE = 75 * 9.8 * 540$

$\Delta PE = 396900 \ J$

A ski hill is angled 20° above the horizontal. If a skier starts from rest at the top of the hill, how fast will she be travelin

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

20 m/s

Explanation:

First, we calculate for the acceleration down the incline using $a = gsin\theta$ .

a = (9.80)sin(20°)

a = 3.35

Then, we use one of the kinematics equations, ${v_{f}}^{2} = {v_{i}}^{2} + 2 a\Delta s$ .

$v_{i}$ = 0 m/s

a = 3.35

$\Delta s$ = 62 m

$v_{f} = \sqrt{2(3.35)(62)}$

$v_{f} =20.381 = 20 m/s$
