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

Given three different locations on Earth's surface, where will the weight of a person be greatest?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to answer this question, we simply have to refer to the laws of the equations of gravitational mechanics.

The equation given by Newton tells us that  

F = \frac{Gm_{1} m_{2}  }{r^{2} }

In the case where we compare a specific place where the Force of Gravity is greater or lesser, we focus on the term assigned to the Planet's Radius.

In the case of G, m_{1} ,m_{2}, we understand that they are constant.

We can easily notice that the more the Radius (Height seen from a viewer on the ground), the lower the force will be.

In other words, the smaller the radius in which the measurement is made with respect to the center of the earth, the greater the gravitational force.

In that order of ideas the smallest radio has South Pole, which is about 6356 km from the center of the Earth on the Equator line

The displacement of a wave traveling in the positive x-direction is y(x, t)|= (3.5 cm)cos(2.7x − 92t), where x is in m and t is
zubka84 [21]

Answer

Given,

y(x, t) = (3.5 cm) cos(2.7 x − 92 t)

comparing the given equation with general equation

y(x,t) = A cos(k x - ω t)

 A = 3.5 cm  , k = 2.7 rad/m    , ω = 92 rad/s

we know,

a) ω =2πf

   f = 92/ 2π

   f = 14.64 Hz

b) Wavelength of the wave

 we now, k = 2π/λ

      2π/λ = 2.7

      λ = 2 π/2.7

      λ = 2.33 m

c) Speed of wave

     v = ν λ

     v = 14.64 x 2.33

     v = 34.11 m/s

Jackson throws a football 30 meters at a speed of 15 m/s. How long was the football in the air before Laurence caught it for tou
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

2s

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance  = 30m

Speed  = 15m/s

Unknown:

Time before Laurence caught it = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem;

    Speed  = \frac{disance }{time}  

 Time taken  = \frac{distance }{speed }   = \frac{30}{15}  = 2s

The time it takes is 2s
