A spring of constant 20 N/m has compressed a distance 8 m by a(n) 0.3 kg mass, then released. It skids over a frictional surface

of length 2 m with a coefficient of friction 0.16, then compresses the second spring of constant 2 N/m. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s2.
How far will the second spring compress in order to bring the mass to a stop?

Answer:

X_2=25.27m

Explanation:

Here we will call:

1. E_1: The energy when the first spring is compress

2. E_2: The energy after the mass is liberated by the spring

3. E_3: The energy before the second string catch the mass

4. E_4: The energy when the second sping compressed

so, the law of the conservations of energy says that:

1. E_1 = E_2

2. E_2 -E_3= W_f

3.E_3 = E_4

where W_f is the work of the friction.

1. equation 1 is equal to:

\frac{1}{2}Kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}MV_2^2

where K is the constant of the spring, x is the distance compressed, M is the mass and V_2 the velocity, so:

\frac{1}{2}(20)(8)^2 = \frac{1}{2}(0.3)V_2^2

Solving for velocity, we get:

V_2 = 65.319 m/s

2. Now, equation 2 is equal to:

\frac{1}{2}MV_2^2-\frac{1}{2}MV_3^2 = U_kNd

where M is the mass, V_2 the velocity in the situation 2, V_3 is the velocity in the situation 3, U_k is the coefficient of the friction, N the normal force and d the distance, so:

\frac{1}{2}(0.3)(65.319)^2-\frac{1}{2}(0.3)V_3^2 = (0.16)(0.3*9.8)(2)

Volving for V_3, we get:

V_3 = 65.27 m/s

3. Finally, equation 3 is equal to:

\frac{1}{2}MV_3^2 = \frac{1}{2}K_2X_2^2

where K_2 is the constant of the second spring and X_2 is the compress of the second spring, so:

\frac{1}{2}(0.3)(65.27)^2 = \frac{1}{2}(2)X_2^2

solving for X_2, we get:

X_2=25.27m

6. An article, which costs Rs. 850 is sold at a profit of 6%.
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

b) Rs.901  is the selling price

Explanation:

selling price = cost price+profit percentage/100 x cost price

cost price = 850

profit percentage = 6%

selling price = 850+6/100 x 850 = 901

soln 2

                              if 100 % = 850

therefore what about 106% = ?

106 x 805/100 = 901

ans = 901

if you need any clarification or more explanation pls do mention on the comment section.i would like to help more

Hope this helps and if it does mark as branliest answer thx
