Answer:
Distance, d = 0.1 m
It is given that,
Initial velocity of meson,
Finally, the meson is coming to rest v = 0
Acceleration of the meson, (opposite to initial velocity)
Using third equation of motion as :
s is the distance the meson travelled before coming to rest.
So,
s = 0.1 m
The meson will cover the distance of 0.1 m before coming to rest. Hence, this is the required solution.
Answer:
k1 + k2
Explanation:
Spring 1 has spring constant k1
Spring 2 has spring constant k2
After being applied by the same force, it is clearly mentioned that spring are extended by the same amount i.e. extension of spring 1 is equal to extension of spring 2.
x1 = x2
Since the force exerted to each spring might be different, let's assume F1 for spring 1 and F2 for spring 2. Hence the equations of spring constant for both springs are
k1 = F1/x -> F1 =k1*x
k2 = F2/x -> F2 =k2*x
While F = F1 + F2
Substitute equation of F1 and F2 into the equation of sum of forces
F = F1 + F2
F = k1*x + k2*x
= x(k1 + k2)
Note that this is applicable because both spring have the same extension of x (I repeat, EXTENTION, not length of the spring)
Considering the general equation of spring forces (Hooke's Law) F = kx,
The effective spring constant for the system is k1 + k2
Answer:
(a) 30 m/sec
(b) -50 m/sec
Explanation:
We have given initial velocity of ball u = 50 m/sec
Acceleration due to gravity 
(a) Time t = 2 sec
Now according to first equation of v = u-gt
So v=50-10×2=30 m/sec
(b) Time t = 10 sec
Now according to first equation of motion
So final velocity v = u-gt = 50-10×10 =-50 m/sec
