\textbf{2500 }\dfrac{\textbf{kg}}{\textbf{s}^{\textbf{2}}}

Explanation:

       Natural length of a spring is 0.5\text{ }m. The spring is streched by 0.02\text{ }m. The resultant energy of the spring is 0.5\text{ }J.

       The potential energy of an ideal spring with spring constant k and elongation x is given by \dfrac{1}{2}kx^{2}.

       So, in the current problem, the natural length of the spring is not required to find the spring constant k.

       \text{Potential Energy in the spring = }\dfrac{1}{2}kx^{2}\\0.5\text{ }J\text{ }=\text{ }\dfrac{1}{2}k(0.02\text{ }m)^{2}\\k\times0.0004\text{ }m^{2}\text{ }=\text{ }1\text{ }J\text{ }=\text{ }1\text{ }kg\frac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}\\k\text{ }=\text{ }\dfrac{1\text{ }kg\dfrac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}}{0.0004\text{ }m^{2}}\text{ }=\text{ }2500\text{ }\frac{kg}{s^{2}}

∴ The spring constant of the spring = 2500\text{ }\frac{kg}{s^{2}}

30) A force produces power P by doing work W in a time T. What power will be produced by a force that does six times as much wor
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

A) 12P

Explanation:

The power produced by a force is given by the equation

P=\frac{W}{T}

where

W is the work done by the force

T is the time in which the work is done

At the beginning in this problem, we have:

W = work done by the force

T = time taken

So the power produced is

P=\frac{W}{T}

Later, the force does six times more work, so the work done now is

W'=6W

And this work is done in half the time, so the new time is

T'=\frac{T}{2}

Substituting into the equation of the power, we find the new power produced:

P'=\frac{W'}{T'}=\frac{6W}{T/2}=12\frac{W}{T}=12P

So, 12 times more power.

If a 20 N object has been lifted 5 meters above the ground, how much gravitational potential energy does it have?
Andreyy89

The gravitational potential energy of the object is 100 J.

Gravitational potential energy stored in an object is the work done in raising the object to a height <em>h</em> against the gravitational force acting on it.

The gravitational force acting on a body is its weight mg, where m is its mass and g, the acceleration due to gravity.

Work done by a force is equal to the product of the force and the displacement made by the point of application of the force.

GPE = mgh

The weight of the object is given as 20 J and it is raised to a height of 5 m.

GPE =(mg)*h = (20 N)*(5m)=100 J

The gravitational potential energy of the object is 100 J.

A steel spur pinion has a module of 2 mm, 17 teeth cut on the 20° full-depth system, and a face width of 20 mm. At a speed of 16
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The value of bending stress on the pinion 35.38 M pa

Explanation:

Given data

m = 2 mm

Pressure angle \phi = 20°

No. of teeth T = 17

Face width (b) = 20 mm

Speed N = 1650 rpm

Power = 1200 W

Diameter of the pinion gear

D = m T

D = 2 × 17

D = 34 mm

Velocity of the pinion gear

V =\pi D( \frac{N}{60} )

V = 3.14 (0.034) \frac{(1650)}{60}

V = 2.93 \frac{m}{s}

Form factor for the pinion gear is

Y = 0.303

Now

K_{v} = \frac{6.1 +0.303}{6.1} = 1.049

Force on gear tooth

F = \frac{P}{V}

F = \frac{1200}{2.93}

F = 408.73 N

Now the bending stress is given by the formula

\sigma = \frac{K_{v} F}{m b y}

\sigma = \frac{(1.049)(408.73)}{(0.002)(0.02)(0.303)}

\sigma = 35.38 M pa

This is the value of bending stress on the pinion
