If your mass is 50 kg (you weigh 110 pounds), and the mass of the refrigerator
is 100 kg (it weighs 220 pounds), and you're standing so that the center of
the frig and the center of you are 1 meter apart (about 3 feet), then the force
of gravity between you and the frig is about 0.0000012 ounce.  That's why.

A system contains a perfectly elastic spring, with an unstretched length of 20 cm and a spring constant of 4 N/cm.
mote1985 [20]

Answer:

a) When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is

0.18 J

b) When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J

Explanation:

Hi there!

a) The elastic potential energy (EPE) is calculated using the following equation:

EPE = 1/2 · k · x²

Where:

k = spring constant.

x = stretched lenght.

Let´s calculate the elastic potential energy of the spring when it is stretched 3 cm (0.03 m).

First, let´s convert the spring constant units into N/m:

4 N/cm · 100 cm/m = 400 N/m

EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.03 m)²

EPE = 0.18 J

When its length is 23 cm, the elastic potential energy of the spring is 0.18 J

b) Now let´s calculate the elastic potential energy when the spring is stretched 0.06 m:

EPE = 1/2 · 400 N/m · (0.06 m)²

EPE = 0.72 J

When the stretched length doubles, the potential energy increases by a factor of four to 0.72 J

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

79.5 m

Explanation:

Let t be the time taken to hit the surface of water and x be the horizontal distance traveled.

use II equation of motion in Y axis direction

h = uy t + 1/2 g t^2

- 60 = - 100 Sin 35 x t - 1/2 x 9.8 x t^2

-60 = - 57.35 t - 4.9 t^2

4.9 t^2 + 57.35 t - 60 = 0

t = \frac{-57.35\pm \sqrt{57.35^{2} + 4 \times 4.9 \times 60}}{2\times 4.9}

By solving we get

t = 0.97 second

The horizontal distance traveled is

x = ux t

x = 100 Cos 35 x 0.97

x = 79.5 m

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

20.6m

Explanation:

The mass is useless in this case.  

Kinetic Energy = Potential Energy

g is acceleration due to gravity.

(1/2)mv² = mgh (m's drop out)

(1/2)v² = gh

(1/2)(20.1²) = 9.81(h)

h = (20.1 x 20.1)/9.81 x 2

20.61 meters
