Use Hooke's Law, which states that the distance a spring stretches (or compresses) from its natural, or equilibrium, length vari

es directly as the applied force on the spring. A force of 265 newtons stretches a spring 0.15 meter. (a) What force stretches the spring 0.4 meter

Answer:

706.68 N

Explanation:

By Hooke's law,

$F = ke$

$k=\dfrac{F}{e}$

Using the values in the question,

$k=\dfrac{265\text{ N}}{0.15 \text{ m}}=1766.7\text{ N/m}$

When e = 0.4 m,

$F = 1766.7\text{ N/m}\times0.4\text{ m}=706.68\text{ N}$

A bicyclist is finishing his repair of a flat tire when a friend rides by with a constant speed of 3.5 m>s. Two seconds later

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

4.28 s

Explanation:

after two seconds (2 s) His friends is

d = 3.5 m/s x 2 s = 7 meter ahead.

in this state, a bicylist start from initial velocity vo = 0 m/s and accelerat 2.4 m/s²

then, when bicylist reach his friend

t friend = t bicyclist = t

d bicylist = d friend + d

-------

d friend = 3.5 . t

d bicylist = vo . t + ½ a t²

d friend + d = vo . t + ½ a t²

3.5 t + 7 = 0 . t + ½ . 2.4 . t²

3.5 t + 7 = 1.2 t²

0 = 1.2 t² - 3.5 t - 7

t = -1.363 and t = 4.28

take the positive one

3. Two spherical objects at the same altitude move with identical velocities and experience the same drag force at a time t. If

Daniel [21]

Answer:

Object 2 has the larger drag coefficient

Explanation:

The drag force, D, is given by the equation:

$D = 0.5 c \rho A v^2$

Object 1 has twice the diameter of object 2.

If $d_2 = d$

$d_1 = 2d$

Area of object 2, $A_2 = \frac{\pi d^2 }{4}$

Area of object 1:

$A_1 = \frac{\pi (2d)^2 }{4}\\A_1 = \pi d^2$

Since all other parameters are still the same except the drag coefficient:

For object 1:

$D = 0.5 c_1 \rho A_1 v^2\\D = 0.5 c_1 \rho (\pi d^2) v^2$

For object 2:

$D = 0.5 c_2 \rho A_2 v^2\\D = 0.5 c_2 \rho (\pi d^2/4) v^2$

Since the drag force for the two objects are the same:

$0.5 c_1 \rho (\pi d^2) v^2 = 0.5 c_2 \rho (\pi d^2/4) v^2\\4c_1 = c_2$

Obviously from the equation above, c₂ is larger than c₁, this means that object 2 has the larger drag coefficient

In class we described the tidal forces that are responsible for raising and lowering thewater level near the shore of the ocean.

Sloan [31]

The newton's law of universal gravitation used to describe how a particle attracts every other particle in the universe.

The equation is given by,

$F= G\frac{m_1 m_2}{r_2}$

Where,

F= Gravitational force

$m_1, m_2 =$ masses of the objects

r= is the distance between the center of their masses

G= Gravitational constant

For our problem we have defined that,

$M_m = 7.24*10^{22}kg$ (mass of the moon)

$d= 3.84*10^8 km$ (distance Earth-moon)

G= 6.671*10^{-11}Nm^2/kg^2

M=Mass of a person

We have then,

$F_m = M\frac{6.67*10^-11*7.34*10^22}{3.84*10^8}$

$F_m = M*3.320*10^{-5} N$

In the other hand we have the force on m-mass due to earth

$F_E= MG = M*9.8N$

Ratio is given by

$\frac{F_m}{F_E} = {M*3.320*10^{-5}}{9.8} = 3.387*10^{-6}$

B) Suppose there is a group of young people surfing in the moonlight. They are directly under the moon. At this time the moon exerts its gravitational effect of the earth that causes the tide to rise. Around 6 hours later, when the earth has moved a quarter of the moon, the force on that point decreases, so the tide drops. However, after another 6 hours, people return and experience the same process. In this case the moon is not above them, but on the other side. This is because the moon having an orbit on the earth, generates an external force, similar to the previous one, but the earth reacts in the opposite way. It is like going in a car and turning it, all people will tend to get out of it, because a centrifugal force is experienced.
