A block of mass m = 0.13 kg is set against a spring with a spring constant of k1 = 623 N/m which has been compressed by a distan

ce of 0.1 m. Some distance in front of it, along a frictionless surface, is another spring with a spring constant of k2 = 487 N/m.(A) How far d2, in meters, will the second spring compress when the block runs into it?(B) How fast v, in meters per second, will the block be moving when it strikes the second spring?(C) Now assume friction is present on the surface in between the ends of the springs at their equilibrium lengths, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is ?k = 0.5. If the distance between the springs is x = 1 m, how far d2, in meters, will the second spring now compress?

Answer:

a) 0.11 m

b) 6.9 m/s

c) 0.10 m

Explanation:

We need to apply the conservation of energy theorem:

U_e+K_{o}+U_o=K_f+U_f

because the surface is frictionless all the elastic potential energy is converted in kinetic, so:

\frac{1}{2}*k*x^2+0+0=K_f\\\\K_f=3.1J

the second spring received 3.1J of energy, so:

3.1J=\frac{1}{2}*487N/m*(x_2)^2\\x_2=0.11m

We know the value of the kinetic energy so:

\frac{1}{2}m*(v_2)^2=3.1J\\v_2=\sqrt{\frac{3.1J*2}{0.13kg}}\\v_2=6.9m/s

now if the surface has friction:

3.1J-\µ*m*g*d=K_f\\3.1J-0.63J=K_f\\K_f=2.5J\\\\2.5J=\frac{1}{2}*K*x^2\\x=\sqrt{\frac{2*2.5J}{487}}\\x=0.10m

A box of mass 1 kg is hung from a spring scale. The reading on the spring scale is approximately 10N. What would be the reading
8090 [49]
The answer will be 50N.
This is because the spring reads weight and weight is mass times acceleration due to gravity.5kg*10m/s2=50N

Noah drops a rock with a density of 1.73 g/cm3 into a pond. Will the rock float or sink?
Katarina [22]

Explanation:

Substances with their density less than that of water which is 1 g/cm³ will float on it whiles those greater than that of water will sink into the water

From the question the density of the object is greater than that of water so the object will sink into the water

Hope this helps you

Why is physics harder than math
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

General perception: Physics is harder than Mathematics. Why? Physics might be more challenging because of the theoretical concepts, the mathematical calculations, laboratory experiments and even the need to write lab reports.
