Answer:

Mechanical energy, U = 0.247 Joules

Explanation:

Given that,

Spring constant of the spring, k = 234 N/m

Mass, m = 524 g = 0.524 kg

Amplitude, A = 4.6 cm = 0.046 m

To find,

The mechanical energy of the system.

Solution,

We know that the sum of kinetic energy and the potential energy is equal to its mechanical energy. In mass-spring system, it is given by :

U=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2

U=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 234\times (0.046)^2

U = 0.247 Joules

So, the mechanical energy of the system is 0.247 Joules.

fredd [130]

Answer:

• 36.4 kg of coal.

• 80 pounds of coal.

Explanation:

Using proportionality constant,

Mass of coal = 1,000,000/27,500,000 btus/metric ton

= 0.0364 metric tons of coal

Mass of coal = 1,000,000/25,000,000 btus/ton

= 0.04 tons of coal.

Converting metric tons to kilogram,

1 metric ton = 1000kg,

0.0364 metric ton;

= 36.4 kg of coal.

Converting tons to pounds,

1 ton = 2000 pounds,

0.04 metric ton;

= 80 pounds of coal.

What is the weight of a 48 kg girl on Earth? Rounded to the nearest whole number
Levart [38]

Answer:

471 N

Explanation:

Weight is just another word for the force of gravity.

​Weight is a force that acts at all times on all objects near Earth. The Earth pulls on all objects with a force of gravity downward toward the center of the Earth (g-9.81 m/s2)

so we can simply say

weight =mass * gravitaitonal acceleraition

           = 48 * 9.81

            =470.88 N

            = 471 N

How does charging by conduction work?
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

During charging by conduction, both objects acquire the same type of charge. If a negative object is used to charge a neutral object, then both objects become charged negatively. ... In this case, electrons are transferred from the neutral object to the positively charged rod and the sphere becomes charged positively.

A person's body is producing energy internally due to metabolic processes. If the body loses more energy than metabolic processe
Allushta [10]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the Stefan-Boltzman law that is responsible for calculating radioactive energy.

Mathematically this expression can be given as

P = \sigma Ae\Delta T^4

Where

A = Surface area of the Object

\sigma = Stefan-Boltzmann constant

e = Emissivity

T = Temperature (Kelvin)

Our values are given as

A = 1.36m^2

\Delta T^4 = T_2^4 -T_1^4 = 307^4-T_1^4

\sigma = 5.67*10^{-8} J/(s m^2 K^4)

P = 122J/s

e = 0.7

Replacing at our equation and solving to find the temperature 1 we have,

P = \sigma Ae\Delta T^4

P = \sigma Ae (T_2^4 -T_1^4)

122 = (5.67*10^{-8})(1.36)(0.7)(307^4-T_1^4)

T_1 = 285.272K = 12.122\°C

Therefore the the temperature of the coldest room in which this person could stand and not experience a drop in body temperature is 12°C
