Answer:
H' = H/4
Explanation:
By applying the law of conservation of energy to this problem, we know that:
Elastic Potential Energy Stored by Spring = Gravitational Potential Energy of ball
(1/2)kx² = mgH
H = (1/2)kx²/mg -------------- equation (1)
where,
H = Height reached by the ball
x = compression of spring
k = stiffness of spring
m = mass of ball
g = acceleration due to gravity
Now, if we make the compression to half of its value:
x' = x/2
then:
H' = (1/2)k(x/2)²/mg
H' = (1/4)(1/2)kx²/mg
using equation (1), we get:
<u>H' = H/4</u>
Very very roughly, an Earth month.
The Sun isn't solid, so it doesn't all have to rotate at the same rate. Different latitudes actually rotate at different speeds. One complete rotation is about 24 days at the Sun's equator, but 35 days near the poles !
Answer:
<h2>98 J</h2>
Explanation:
The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula
PE = mgh
where
m is the mass
h is the height
g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 9.8 m/s²
From the question we have
PE = 5 × 9.8 × 2
We have the final answer as
<h3>98 J</h3>
Hope this helps you
I think the correct answer would be A. If you are waiting to turn left into a small parking lot and a car is approaching from the opposite direction has a turn signal on, then you should wait until the other car starts its turn before making your turn. According to the general law on making a left turn, left turns should yield to the oncoming traffic. The vehicle that arrives in the intersection first would have the right of way to turn left. However, when there are two vehicles arrives at the intersection almost at the same time, then the one on the right would have the right of way.
