Answer:
v = 2.94 m/s
Explanation:
When the spring is compressed, its potential energy is equal to (1/2)kx^2, where k is the spring constant and x is the distance compressed. At this point there is no kinetic energy due to there being no movement, meaning the net energy in the system is (1/2)kx^2.
Once the spring leaves the system, it will be moving at a constant velocity v, if friction is ignored. At this time, its kinetic energy will be (1/2)mv^2. It won't have any spring potential energy, making the net energy (1/2)mv^2.
Because of the conservation of energy, these two values can be set equal to each other, since energy will not be gained or lost while the spring is decompressing. That means
(1/2)kx^2 = (1/2)mv^2
kx^2 = mv^2
v^2 = (kx^2)/m
v = sqrt((kx^2)/m)
v = x * sqrt(k/m)
v = 0.122 * sqrt(125/0.215) <--- units converted to m and kg
v = 2.94 m/s
Answer:
3. When energy is used, it can transform to new types but can never disappear.
Explanation: it can transform into heat, light, ect and will never disapear unlessed turned of.
Answer:
As light travels in a straight line at a constant speed, it's acceleration is <u>0 m/s²</u>.
There is no rate of change of speed, so there is no acceleration.
- <u>0 m/s²</u> is the right answer.
