A. The potential energy stored in the compressed spring of a dart gun, with a spring constant of 62.00 N/m, is 0.940 J. Find by

valina [46]

a. The spring is compressed by 0.174 m.

b. The vertical distance the dart travels from its position when the spring is compressed to its highest position is 9.6 m.

c. The horizontal velocity of the dart at that time is 13.74 m/s.

d. The horizontal distance from the equilibrium position at which the dart hits the ground is 19.236 m.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

The energy by virtue of its position is called the potential energy.

a. Given is the potential energy stored in the compressed spring of a dart gun, with a spring constant of 62.00 N/m, is 0.940 J.

PE of spring = 1/2 kx²

Put the values, we get

P.E = 0.940 = 1/2 x 62 x²

x = 0.174 m

Thus, the spring is compressed by 0.174 m.

b. Given is a 0.010 kg dart is fired straight up.

The vertical height is find out by

0.940 J = (0.010 kg) (9.8 m/s²) h

h = 9.6 m

Thus, the vertical distance the dart travels from its position is 9.6 m

c. From the conservation of energy principle, total mechanical energy is conserved.

1/2 mv² =mgh

v = √2gh

Plug the values, we get

v = √2 x 9.8x 9.6

v = 13.74 m/s

Thus, the horizontal velocity is 13.74 m/s.

d. Time that dart spends in air, t = √2h/g

t = √(2x9.6)/9.81

t = 1.4 s

The horizontal distance from the equilibrium position at which the dart hits the ground.

Horizontal distance = (Velocity on x direction) x time

Horizontal distance = 13.74 m/s x 1.4s

Horizontal distance = 19.236 m

Thus, the horizontal distance is 19.236 m.

Matter behaving like a wave rather than like a particle is best illustrated by which phenomenon?

Novay_Z [31]

<span>The photoelectric effect is about electrons being ejected from metals when light is shined on metals. The electrons do not behave like waves in the photoelectric effect. Black body radiation is all about the radiation emitted by warm bodies and not about those bodies behaving like waves. The emission spectra of atoms is all about what light is given off by atoms when electrons in those atoms jump down to lower energy levels from higher levels. That also has nothing to do with matter behaving as a wave. Interference is classically defined as the generation of a new wave with an amplitude modulated according to the waves that interfere to form that new wave. Note its emphasis on the wave part.</span>

If the lily pads are spaced 2.4 m apart and Ferdinand jumps with a speed of 5 m/s taking 0.6 s to go from lily pad to lily pad,

Zina [86]

Answer:

$36.87^{\circ}$

Explanation:

v = Velocity of Ferdinand = 5 m/s

$\theta$ = Angle of jump

T = Time taken = 0.6 s

R = Distance between lily pads = 2.4 m

Horizontal range is given by

$R=v_xT\\\Rightarrow R=vcos\theta T\\\Rightarrow cos\theta=\dfrac{R}{vT}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\dfrac{R}{vT}\\\Rightarrow \theta=cos^{-1}\dfrac{2.4}{5\times 0.6}\\\Rightarrow \theta=36.87^{\circ}$

The angle at which Ferdinand make each of his jumps is $36.87^{\circ}$

While driving, your car has an initial position of 3.2 m, an initial velocity of -8.4 m/s, and

KIM [24]

Answer:

The position of the car at t = 1.5 s is at -8.1625 meters

Explanation:

The initial position of the car is 3.2 meters

The initial velocity is -8.4 m/s

The constant acceleration is 1.1 m/s²

We need to find the final position of the car at the time t = 1.5 seconds

The displacement <em>s</em> = final position - initial position

$s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$ , where <em>u</em> is the initial velocity, <em>a</em> is the

constant acceleration and <em>t</em> is the time

So we can find the final velocity by using the rule:

final position - initial position = $ut+\frac{1}{2}at^{2}$

initial position = 3.2 meters , u = -8.4 m/s , a = 1.1 ²m/s , t = 1.5 s

Substitute these values in the rule

final position - 3.2 = $(-8.4)(1.5)+\frac{1}{2}(1.1)(1.5)^{2}$

final position - 3.2 = -12.6 + 1.2375

final position - 3.2 = -11.3625

add 3.2 for both sides

final position = -8.1625

<em>That means the car is at 8.1625 meters in opposite direction</em>

<em>The position of the car at t = 1.5 s is at -8.1625 meters </em>
