A 4.5 kg box slides down a 4.3-m-high frictionless hill, starting from rest, across a 2.0-m-wide horizontal surface, then hits a

horizontal spring with spring constant 510 N/m. The other end of the spring is anchored against a wall. The ground under the spring is frictionless, but the 2.0-m-long horizontal surface is rough. The coefficient of kinetic friction of the box on this surface is 0.22. What is the speed of the box just before reaching the rough surface? What is the speed of the box just before hitting the spring? How far is the spring compressed? Including the first crossing, how many complete trips will the box make across the rough surface before coming to rest?

Answer:

speed  before reaching rough surface = 9.18 m/s

speed before hitting spring = 8.70 m/s

spring compression = 82 cm

number of complete trip = 9

Explanation:

Lets say

Position 1: On top of hill

Position 2: down the hill

Position 3: after the rough surface

Position 4: after hitting the spring

We'll strictly use conservation of energy for this equation

Potential energy on top of energy is full converted into kinetic energy down the hill (since surface is frictionless)

Hence, PEg1 = KE2

mgh = (1/2)mv2^2

(4.5)(9.8)(4.3) = (1/2)(4.5)v2^2

189.63 = (1/2)(4.5)v2^2

v2^2 = 2(9.8)(4.3) = 84.28

v2 = sqrt(84.28) = 9.18 m/s

After down the hill, it passes a rough surface. So some of the energy is loss due to friction forces

Friction force, Ff = u (coeff of kinetic friction ) x N (normal force)

Normal force, N = weight of box = mg = 4.5 x 9.8

Ff = 0.22 x 4.5 x 9.8

Work done / Energy loss = Wf = Ff x d (distance)

Wf = 0.22 x 4.5 x 9.8 x 2 = 19.404

Energy after passing the rough surface is totally kinetic energy

KE3 = KE2 - Wf = 189.63 - 19.404 = 170.226

speed after rough surface,

(1/2)mv3^2 = 170.226

v3 = sqrt((2 x 170.226)/4.5) = 8.70 m/s

After hitting the spring, all the kinetic energy is converted into potential energy of spring

170.226 = (1/2)kx^2

x^2 = 2 x 170.226 / 510     {note that constant of spring, k = 510}

x^2 = 0.668

x = sqrt(0.668) = 0.82m (82 cm)

To calculate complete trip before the box coming to rest, note that the only place where it loss energy is at the rough surface.

Energy before the first time pass rough surface = 189.63

Energy loss each time passing rough surface = 19.404

189.63 / 19.404 = 9.773 (9 complete with balance of 0.773)

That mean, the box will pass the rough surface 9 complete trip before coming to rest

A t-rated switch may be used to (its/a) ______ current capacity when controlling an incandescent lighting load.
jok3333 [9.3K]

<u>Rated </u>

A t-rated switch may be used to (its/a) <u>Rated</u> current capacity current capacity when controlling an incandescent lighting load.

<h3>What is "current rating"?</h3>
  • The greatest current that a fuse is rated to carry for an infinite duration without significantly degrading the fuse element is known as the current rating.
  • There is also a large selection of power switching transistors that have voltage ratings well over 1000V and current ratings up to several hundred amps.

<h3>What does the term "rated current" mean?</h3>
  • When an electrical device receives its rated voltage and outputs its rated power, it flows at its rated current.
  • So, when a device is designed for a certain amperage, that amperage is referred to as the equipment's rated current.

<h3>What does electrical "rated" mean?</h3>
  • An electrical appliance's rating reveals the voltage range at which it is intended to operate as well as the current consumption at that range.
  • These numbers are typically shown on a rating plate that is fastened to the device, such as 230 volts, 3 amps.

a ball of diameter 10 cm and mass 10 grams is dropped in a container of water. the cross sectional area of the container is 100
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

h = 9.83 cm

Explanation:

Let's analyze this interesting exercise a bit, let's start by comparing the density of the ball with that of water

       

let's reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

         r = 10 cm = 0.10 m

         m = 10 g = 0.010 kg

         A = 100 cm² = 0.01 m²

the definition of density is

          ρ = m / V

the volume of a sphere

         V = \frac{4}{3} \ \pi r^{3}

          V = \frac{4}{3} π 0.1³

          V = 4.189 10⁻³ m³

let's calculate the density of the ball

           ρ = \frac{0.010}{4.189 \ 10^{-3} }

           ρ = 2.387 kg / m³

the tabulated density of water is

         ρ_water = 997 kg / m³

we can see that the density of the body is less than the density of water. Consequently the body floats in the water, therefore the water level that rises corresponds to the submerged part of the body. Let's write the equilibrium equation

            B - W = 0

            B = W

             

where B is the thrust that is given by Archimedes' principle

           ρ_liquid  g V_submerged = m g

           V_submerged = m / ρ_liquid

we calculate

            V _submerged = 0.10 9.8 / 997

             V_submerged = 9.83 10⁻⁴ m³

The volume increassed of the water container

           V = A h

            h = V / A

let's calculate

            h = 9.83 10⁻⁴ / 0.01

            h = 0.0983  m

this is equal to h = 9.83 cm
