Which wave characteristic has the unit hertz??

A 1.05 kg block slides with a speed of 0.865 m/s on a frictionless horizontal surface until it encounters a spring with a force

djyliett [7]

Answer:

a) U = 0 J

k = 0.393 J

E = 0.393 J

b) U = 0.0229J

k = 0.370 J

E = 0.393 J

c) U = 0.0914 J

k = 0.302 J

E = 0.393 J

d) U = 0.206 J

k = 0.187 J

E = 0.393 J

e) U = 0.366 J

k = 0.027 J

E = 0.393 J

Explanation:

Hi there!

The equations of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy are as follows:

k = 1/2 · m · v²

U = 1/2 · ks · x²

Where:

m = mass of the block.

v = velocity.

ks = spring constant.

x = displacement of the string.

a) When the spring is not compressed, the spring potential energy will be zero:

U = 1/2 · ks · x²

U = 1/2 · 457 N/m · (0 cm)²

U = 0 J

The kinetic energy of the block will be:

k = 1/2 · m · v²

k = 1/2 · 1.05 kg · (0.865 m/s)²

k = 0.393 J

The mechanical energy will be:

E = k + U = 0.393 J + 0 J = 0.393 J

This energy will be conserved, i.e., it will remain constant because there is no work done by friction nor by any other dissipative force (like air resistance). This means that the kinetic energy will be converted only into spring potential energy (there is no thermal energy due to friction, for example).

b) The spring potential energy will be:

U = 1/2 · 457 N/m · (0.01 m)²

U = 0.0229 J

Since the mechanical energy has to remain constant, we can use the equation of mechanical energy to obtain the kinetic energy:

E = k + U

0.393 J = k + 0.0229 J

0.393 J - 0.0229 J = k

k = 0.370 J

c) The procedure is now the same. Let´s calculate the spring potential energy with x = 0.02 m.

U = 1/2 · 457 N/m · (0.02 m)²

U = 0.0914 J

Using the equation of mechanical energy:

E = k + U

0.393 J = k + 0.0914 J

k = 0.393 J - 0.0914 J = 0.302 J

d) U = 1/2 · 457 N/m · (0.03 m)²

U = 0.206 J

E = 0.393 J

k = E - U = 0.393 J - 0.206 J

k = 0.187 J

e) U = 1/2 · 457 N/m · (0.04 m)²

U = 0.366 J

E = 0.393 J

k = E - U = 0.393 J - 0.366 J = 0.027 J.

A car moving with an initial speed v collides with a second stationary car that is one-half as massive. After the collision the

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

4v/3

Explanation:

Assume elastic collision by the law of momentum conservation:

$m_1v = m_1v_1 + m_2v_2$

where v is the original speed of car 1, v1 is the final speed of car 1 and v2 is final speed of car 2. m1 and m2 are masses of car 1 and car 2, respectively

Substitute $m_2 = m_1/2 \& v_1 = v/3$

$m_1v = \frac{m_1v}{3} + \frac{m_1v_2}{2}$

Divide both side by $m_1$ , then multiply by 6 we have

$6v = 2v + 3v_2$

$3v_2 = 4v$

$v_2 = \frac{4v}{3}$

So the final speed of the second car is 4/3 of the first car original speed

A net downward force of 20 N causes a book to fall towards the ground at m/s2. What is the book’s mass? Consider air resistance

stira [4]

If we have to figure air resistance into it, then we don't have enough information to find an answer.

If the air around it is going to have an effect on how it falls, then it'll depend on the thickness of the book, the shape of the book, whether it's a hard-cover or soft-cover, how far the covers stick out past the pages, how smooth or rough the covers are, how bumpy the binding it. and what position you hold it in before you let it go.

(THAT's why we always ignore air resistance, especially when the question is actually about gravity anyway.)

Consider a double-slit with a distance between the slits of 0.04 mm and slit width of 0.01 mm. Suppose the screen is a distance

scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

The distance between the places where the intensity is zero due to the double slit effect is 15 mm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the slits = 0.04 mm

Width = 0.01 mm

Distance between the slits and screen = 1 m
