Answer: a) 0.78 m/s b) 1.57 m/s
Explanation:
M = father's mass
m = son's mass = M/3
V = father's initial speed
v = son's initial speed
(1/2)MV^2 = (1/2)*(1/2)*m v^2
M*V^2 = (1/2)(M/3)v^2
V^2/v^2 = 1/4
V = v/2
Second equation:
(1/2)M*(V + 1.4)^2 = (1/2)m*v^2
= (1/2)*(M/3)*(3V)^2
cancel out the M's and (1/2)'s
(V + 1.4)^2 = 3V^2
V^2 + 2.8V + 1.96 = 3V^2
V^2 -1.4V -0.98 = 0
V^2 = 0.98/0.4 = 2.45
V = 1.57
Which of the following best describes the use of a renewable resource?
Answer:
There are areas in California that use the heat from deep in the Earth to generate electricity.
Explanation:
It comes from the earth itself and we use a lot of things that comes from the earth and deep within it.
A. electrical energy is transformed into mechanical energy.
The spring constant is 147 N/m
Given the mass of the block is 2.00 kg , the mass of the body is 300 g and the length of the spring is 2.00 cm
We need to find the spring constant
A spring is an object that can be deformed by a force and then return to its original shape after the force is removed.
The force required to stretch an elastic object such as a metal spring is directly proportional to the extension of the spring
We know that F = kx
300(9.8)= k (0.02)
k = 147.15 N/m
Rounding off to the nearest is 147N/m
The spring constant is 147N/m
