Think of a wedge as something you put in between objects, so it is a separates objects

A 50.0-g object connected to a spring with a force constant of 35.0 n/m oscillates with an amplitude of 4.00 cm on a frictionles

Dimas [21]

A) The total energy of the system is sum of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy:
$E=K+U= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 + \frac{1}{2}kx^2$
where
m is the mass
v is the speed
k is the spring constant
x is the elongation/compression of the spring

The total energy is conserved, so we can calculate its value at any point of the motion. If we take the point of maximum displacement:
$x=A=4.00 cm = 0.04 m$
then the velocity of the system is zero, so the total energy is just potential energy, and it is equal to
$E=U= \frac{1}{2}kA^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.04 m)^2=0.028 J$

b) When the position of the object is
$x=1.00 cm = 0.01 m$
the potential energy of the system is
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.01 m)^2 = 1.75 \cdot 10^{-3} J$
and so the kinetic energy is
$K=E-U=0.028 J - 1.75 \cdot 10^{-3}J =0.026 J$
since the mass is $m=50.0 g=0.05 kg$ , and the kinetic energy is given by
$K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2$
we can re-arrange the formula to find the speed of the object:
$v= \sqrt{ \frac{2K}{m} }= \sqrt{ \frac{2 \cdot 0.026 J}{0.05 kg} }=1.02 m/s$

c) The potential energy when the object is at
$x=3.00 cm=0.03 m$
is
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.03 m)^2 =0.016 J$
Therefore the kinetic energy is
$K=E-U=0.028 J-0.016 J = 0.012 J$

d) We already found the potential energy at point c, and it is given by
$U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}(35.0 N/m)(0.03 m)^2 =0.016 J$

A positive charge of 8.0 × 10-4 C is in an electric field that exerts a force of 3.5 × 10-4 N on it. What is the strength of the

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

E = 0.437 N/C

Explanation:

Given that,

Charge, $q=8\times 10^{-4}\ C$

Electric force, $F=3.5\times 10^{-4}\ N$

Let the strength of the electric field is E. We know that, the electric force is given by :

F = qE

Where

E is the electric field strength

$E=\dfrac{F}{q}\\\\E=\dfrac{3.5\times 10^{-4}}{8\times 10^{-4}}\\E=0.437\ N/C$

So, the strength of the electric field is equal to 0.437 N/C.

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Glass as it is heavier and by newtons first law and inertia the greater the mass = more inertia(resistance to chabge in motion) thus the glass has a greater mass than an empty paper cup and thus has greater inertia. So it would be easier to leave it in place
