A 20.5 kg ball moving at 38.5 m/s on a horizontal, frictionless surface runs into a light spring of force

Physics
1 answer:
tekilochka [14]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

7.68 m

Explanation:

Kinetic energy in ball = elastic energy in spring

KE = EE

½ mv² = ½ kx²

mv² = kx²

x = v √(m / k)

x = (38.5 m/s) √(20.5 kg / 515 N/m)

x = 7.68 m

Which BEST describes the physical properties of the Earth’s core?
Sonja [21]

C) a solid lower part and a liquid upper part

Explanation:

The physical nature of the earth's core is made up of a solid lower part and a liquid upper part.

The core is the innermost part of the earth and it is made up of metallic minerals.

  • It has the highest temperature and pressure of all the layers of the earth.
  • The core is divided into two. Outer and inner core.
  • Outer core is made up of molten metallic minerals. It is the layer where the earth geomagnetic field originates.
  • The inner core is solid metallic ball.
  • Evidence from seismic waves has furnished geoscientists with this knowledge.

Using equations, determine the temperature, pressure and density of the air for a aircraft flying at 19.5 km. Is this aircraft s
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

a) - 72.5°c

b) pressure = 3625.13 Pa

c) density =  0.063 kg/m^3

d) it is a subsonic aircraft

Explanation:

a) Determine Temperature

Temperature at 19.5 km ( 19500 m )

T = -131 + ( 0.003 * altitude in meters )

  =  -131 + ( 0.003 * 19500 ) = - 72.5°c

b) Determine pressure and density at 19.5 km altitude

Given :

Po (atmospheric pressure at sea level )  = 101kpa

R ( gas constant of air ) = 0.287 KJ/Kgk

T = -72.5°c ≈ 200.5 k

pressure = 3625.13 Pa

hence density = 0.063 kg/m^3

attached below is the remaining part of the solution

C) determine if the aircraft is subsonic or super sonic

Velocity ( v ) = \sqrt{CRT}  =  \sqrt{1.4*287*200.5 } = 283.8 m/s

hence it is a subsonic aircraft

Based on the second law of thermodynamics, how would you expect a system to change over time?
deff fn [24]

B. It's randomness would increase

Because the Second Law of Thermodynamics states that as energy is transferred or transformed, more and more of it is wasted. It also states that there is a natural tendency of any isolated system to degenerate into a more disordered state.
