The spring, initially at rest, was compressed by the blue box by 0.15 m. The spring constant of the spring is 300 N/m. The mass

of the box was 0.2 kg. What is the max height of the box when it comes to rest on the ramp

Answer:

1.72m

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question.

Displacement (x) = 0.15 m

Spring constant (K) = 300 N/m

Mass (m) = 0.2 kg

Height (h) =?

Step 2:

Determination of the energy in the spring.

The energy is a spring can be obtained by the following equation:

E = 1/2 kx^2

E = 1/2 x 300 x 0.15^2

E = 150 x 0.0225

E = 3.375J

Step 3:

Determination of the maximum height.

At maximum height, the energy stored is the spring is equal to the potential energy i.e

Energy stored in the string = potential energy

E = P.E

Recall:

Potential energy = mgh

Where:

m is the mass = 0.2kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.8m/s2

h is the height. =?

Potential energy (P.E) = 3.375J

PE = mgh

3.375 = 0.2 x 9.8 x h

Divide both side by 0.2 x 9.8

h = 3.375/ (0.2 x 9.8)

h = 1.72m

Therefore, the maximum height of the box is 1.72m

The center-seeking change in velocity of an object moving in a circle is:
NeTakaya

The center-seeking change in velocity of an object moving in a circle is the centripetal acceleration.

So, by Newton's laws, we know that an object moving with a given velocity will remain in constant motion with a constant velocity until we apply an acceleration.

So we define acceleration as the rate of change of the velocity, also remember that velocity is a vector (has magnitude and direction), so, if there is a change the direction of the velocity, we have an acceleration that causes that.

In circular motion, the velocity vector is always perpendicular to the radius of the circle, and it can only be possible if the velocity direction is changing constantly. This will happen because of something called centripetal acceleration.

This acceleration points radially inwards (to the center of the circle) so is also perpendicular to the velocity of the moving object, and this is what causes the constant change in the direction of the velocity of the moving object.

Just to give an example, if you have a string with a mass on one end, and with your hand, you rotate the mass (from the string), the tension of the string would be the centripetal acceleration.

A 6 cm object is 15 cm from a convex lens that has a focal length of 5 cm. What is the distance of the image from the lens, to t
Vesna [10]

Answer:

7.50 cm

Explanation:

The formula

1/v + 1/u = 1/f

Is used.

where.

u is the object distance.

v is the image distance.

f is the focal length of the lens.

1/v + 1/15 = 1/5

1/v = 1/5 - 1/15

1/v = (3-1)/15

1/v = 2/15

2v = 15

V = 15/2

V = 7.5 cm

For focal length, f in lens is always taken as negative for concave and positive for convex. ... And for image distance, V in lens it is taken as positive in Convex lens since image is formed on +X side. It is taken as negative in Concave lens since image is formed in -X side of the Cartesian.
