How long should a spring be stretched for it to store 45 J of energy? The force constant of the spring is

Physics

ELEN [110]3 years ago

Answer:

x = 0.4 m

Explanation:

When a spring is stretched from its equilibrium position. Some energy is stored in the spring. This energy is called the elastic potential energy of the spring. The formula used to calculate the magnitude of this stored energy is given as follows:

P.E = (1/2)kx²

where,

P.E = Elastic Potential Energy Stored in the spring = 45 J

k = Spring Constant = 540 N/m

x = amount of stretching = ?

Therefore,

45 J = (1/2)(540 N/m)x²

x² = (45 J)(2)/(540 N/m)

x = √(0.167 m²)

<u>x = 0.4 m</u>

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

V₀ = 5.47 m/s

Explanation:

The jumping motion of the Salmon can be modelled as the projectile motion. So, we use the formula for the range of projectile motion here:

R = V₀² Sin 2θ/g

where,

R = Range of Projectile = 3.04 m

θ = Launch Angle = 41.7°

V₀ = Minimum Launch Speed = ?

g = 9.81 m/s²

Therefore,

3.04 m = V₀² [Sin2(41.7°)]/(9.81 m/s²)

V₀² = 3.04 m/(0.10126 s²/m)

V₀ = √30.02 m²/s²

<u>V₀ = 5.47 m/s</u>

Infer why the output force exerted by a rake must be less than input force?
adell [148]
<h3><u>Answer and Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • input force refers to the force exerted on a machine, also known as the effort, while the output force is the force machines produce or the Load. The ratio of output force to input force gives the mechanical advantage of a simple machine
  • <em><u>The output force exerted by the rake must be less than the input force because one has to use force while raking. The force used to move the rake is the input force. </u></em>
  • <em><u>The rake is not going to be able to convert all of the input force into output force, the force the rake applies to move the leaves, because of friction.</u></em>

Velocity is a vector quantity which has both magnitude and direction. ... Net force is also a vector quantity which has both mag
GuDViN [60]
When the object is moving in the elliptical orbit, it means that the direction of its acceleration should be towards the two foci (plural of focus) of the ellipse to keep the elliptical motion. As force according to the Newton's second law: F = ma, the net force must be in the direction of the acceleration. As far as the magnitude of net force is concerned, you can use Newton's gravitational law to find its magnitude.
