Leash a block of 0.5 kg down the entire length of an inclined plane forming a name of 37 ° with the horizontal. Friction with th

e plane is negligible. upon leaving the inclined plane, the block compresses a spring a spring on a polished horizontal surface. if the length of the plane is 2.5m and if the spring is and compressed by 60 cm what is the elasticity constant of the spring?

The potential energy of the block is given by:
V = m*g*h
m mass
g = 9.81m/s²
h height

The potential energy of a spring is given by:
V = 0.5 * k * x²

k spring constant
x compression of the spring

If the block starts from rest it has potential energy, but no kinetic energy. As it slides down the incline potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. When the block hits the spring the kinetic energy is converted into spring's potential energy. If the spring is fully compressed and the block is at rest again, the block has transferred all its energy into the spring. No energy is lost. So we can write:

m * g * h = 0.5 * k * x²

m = 0.5 kg
g = 9.81 m/s²
h = 2.5m * sin 37° = 1,5 m
x = 0,6 m

Solve for k.

k = 2 * m * g * h / x² = 40.8 N/m

Two wooden crates rest on top of one another. The smaller top crate has a mass of m1 = 24 kg and the larger bottom crate has a m
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

The sum of all forces for the two objects with force of friction F and tension T are:

(i) m₁a₁ = F

(ii) m₂a₂ = T - F

1) no sliding infers: a₁ = a₂= a

The two equations become:

m₂a = T - m₁a

Solving for a:

a = T / (m₁+m₂) = 2.1 m/s²

2) Using equation(i):

F = m₁a = 51.1 N

3) The maximum friction is given by:

F = μsm₁g

Using equation(i) to find a₁ = a₂ = a:

a₁ = μs*g

Using equation(ii)

T = m₁μsg + m₂μsg = (m₁ + m₂)μsg = 851.6 N

4) The kinetic friction is given by: F = μkm₁g

Using equation (i) and the kinetic friction:

a₁ = μkg = 6.1 m/s²

5) Using equation(ii) and the kinetic friction:

m₂a₂ = T - μkm₁g

a₂ = (T - μkm₁g)/m₂ = 12.1 m/s²

A red blood cell is 7 x 10-6 m in size. This means it is 7 __________ in size. What unit completes the sentence?
aalyn [17]

If a red blood cell is 7 x 10^-^6 m in size, it means that such a cell is 7 microns or micrometer in size. The unit that completes the sentence will, thus, be microns or micrometer.

According to international system of measurement:

  • 10^{-1} m = decimeter
  • 10^{-2} m = centimeter
  • 10^{-3} m = millimeter
  • 10^{-6} m = micrometer or micron
  • 10^{-9} m = nanometer

Thus, a measurement of 7 x 10^-^6 m is the same is 7 micons or 7 micrometer.
