An ideal spring hangs from the ceiling. A 1.55 kg1.55 kg mass is hung from the spring, stretching the spring a distance ????=0.0

855 md=0.0855 m from its original length when it reaches equilibrium. The mass is then lifted up a distance ????=0.0235 mL=0.0235 m from the equilibrium position and released. What is the kinetic energy of the mass at the instant it passes back through the equilibrium position?

Answer: 0.048 J

Explanation:

The described situation is better understood with the attached figure.

Let's assume that when the mass is released after being lifted up, it starts performing simple harmonic motion with an amplitude L. Then, the maximum speed V of this hanging mass is fulfilled at the equilibrium position and its given by the following equation:

V=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}L (1)

Where:

k is the spring constant which can be calculated by the Hooke's law: k=\frac{F}{d}=\frac{mg}{d} being g=9.8 m/s^{2} the acceleration due gravity and d=0.0855 m the length the spring is streched.

m=1.55 kg is the mass

L=0.0235 m is the amplitude

So, k=\frac{(1.55 kg)(9.8 m/s^{2})}{0.0855 m}=177.66 N/m (2)

Substituting (2) in (1):

V=\sqrt{\frac{177.66 N/m}{1.55 kg}}0.0235 m (3)

V=0.251 m/s (4)

On the other hand, the kinetic energy K is given by the following equation:

K=\frac{1}{2}mV^{2} (5)

K=\frac{1}{2}(1.55 kg)(0.251 m/s)^{2} (6)

Hence:

K=0.048 J

cluponka [151]

Answer:

The centripetal force on body 2 is 8 times of the centripetal force in body 1.

Explanation:

Body 1 has a mass m, and its moving in a circle with a radius r at a speed v. The centripetal force acting on it is given by :

F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}

Body 2 has a mass 2m and its moving in a circle of radius 4r at a speed 4v. The centripetal force on body 2 is :

F'=\dfrac{2m\times (4v)^2}{4r}\\\\F'=\dfrac{2m\times 16v^2}{4r}\\\\F'=8\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\\F'=8F

So, the centripetal force on body 2 is 8 times of the centripetal force in body 1.

How to find resultant force?​
lys-0071 [83]

Assuming you're working in a 3D cartesian coordinate system, i.e. each point in space has an x, y, and z coordinate, you add up the forces' x/y/z components to find the resultant force.

A polar bear runs at a speed of 11 m/s and has a mass of 380.2 kg. How much Kinetic energy does the bear have?
Yanka [14]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf Kinetic \ energy \ of \ the \ bear (KE) = 23002.1 \ J}

Given:

Mass of the polar bear (m) = 6.8 kg

Speed of the polar bear (v) = 5.0 m/s

To Find:

Kinetic energy of the polar bear (KE)

Explanation:

Formula:

\boxed{ \bold{\sf KE =  \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} }}

Substituting values of m & v in the equation:

\sf \implies KE =  \frac{1}{2}  \times 380.2 \times  {11}^{2}

\sf \implies KE = \frac{1}{ \cancel{2}}  \times  \cancel{2} \times 190.1 \times 121

\sf \implies KE = 190.1 \times 121

\sf \implies KE = 23002.1 \: J

\therefore

Kinetic energy of the polar bear (KE) = 23002.1 J
