Answer:

(a) 4400.83 N

(b) 1051.7 N

(c) 3349.13 N

Explanation:

V = 1.4 ft^3 = 0.0396 m^3

density of lead = 11.34 x 10^3 kg/m^3

density of aluminium = 2710 kg/m^3

(a) When lead is used

Weight = mass x gravity = volume x density x gravity

            = 0.0396 x 11.34 x 1000 x 9.8 = 4400.83 N

(b) when aluminium is used

Weight = mass x gravity = volume x density x gravity

           = 0.0396 x 2710 x 9.8 = 1051.7 N

(c) Difference in weight = 4400.83 - 1051.7 = 3349.13 N

In Trial III, a different, looser, spring is used; its force constant is 23.1 N/m. The suspended mass is the same as the one in
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

T=0.827s

Explanation:

The period of a spring can be calculated with the equation

T=2\pi w

But we know as well that w is given by,

w=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

Replacing,

w=\frac{2\pi}{T}= \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\\T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\\T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{0.4}{23.1}}

So we have that

T=0.827s

What must be the acceleration of a train in order for it to stop 12 m/s in a distance if 541 m
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

The acceleration of the train must be - 0.133 m/s²

Explanation:

Lets explain how to solve the problem

A train in order for it to stop 12 m/s in a distance if 541 m

That means the initial velocity of the train is 12 m/s

Its final velocity is zero (stop)

The distance it covers is 541 m

We want to find its acceleration

The acceleration will be negative quantity because the train reduced its

velocity from 12 m/s to zero

We need rule contains velocity, acceleration and distance

So we will use ⇒<em> v² = u² + 2as</em>, where v is the final velocity, u is the

initial velocity, a is the acceleration and s is the distance

v = 0, u = 12 m/s, s = 541 m

Substitute these values in the rule

(0)² = (12)² + 2(a)(541)

0 = 144 + 1082 a

Subtract 144 from both sides

-144 = 1082 a

Divide both sides by 1082

- 0.133 = a

<em>The acceleration of the train must be - 0.133 m/s²</em>
