Answer:Expression given below

Explanation:

Given mass of spring $\left ( m_1\right )=0.5 kg$

Compression in the spring $\left ( x\right )=20 cm$

Let the spring constant be K

Using Energy conservation

potential energy stored in spring =Kinetic energy of Block $\left ( m_1\right )$

$\frac{1}{2}Kx^2=\frac{1}{2}m_1v^2$

$v=x\sqrt{\frac{k}{m_1}}$

now conserving momentum

$m_1v=\left ( m_1+m_2\right )v_0$

$v_0=\frac{m_1}{m_1+m_2}v$

where $v_0$ is the final velocity

A 70.9-kg boy and a 43.2-kg girl, both wearing skates face each other at rest on a skating rink. The boy pushes the girl, sendin

Lelechka [254]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of boy $m_b=70.9\ kg$

mass of girl $m_g=43.2\ kg$

speed of girl after push $v_g=4.64\ m/s$

Suppose speed of boy after push is $v_b$

initially momentum of system is zero so final momentum is also zero because momentum is conserved

$P_i=P=f$

$0=m_b\cdot v_b+m_g\cdot v_g$

$v_b=-\frac{m_g}{m_b}\times v_g$

$v_b=-\frac{43.2}{70.9}\times 4.64$

$v_b=-2.82\ m/s$

i.e. velocity of boy is 2.82 m/s towards west

The electron gun in a television tube accelerates electrons (mass = 9.11x10^-31 kg, charge = 1.6 x 10^-19C) from rest to 3 x10^7

stich3 [128]

Answer:

Electric field acting on the electron is 127500 N/C.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of an electron, $m=9.11\times 10^{-31}\ kg$

Charge on electron, $q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C$

Initial speed of electron, u = 0

Final speed of electron, $v=3\times 10^7\ m/s$

Distance covered, s = 2 cm = 0.02 m

We need to find the electric field required. Firstly, we will find the acceleration of the electron from third equation of motion as :

$a=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2s}$

$a=\dfrac{(3\times 10^7)^2-0}{2\times 0.02}$

$a=2.25\times 10^{16}\ m/s^2$

According to Newton's law, force acting on the electron is given by :

F = ma

$F=9.1\times 10^{-31}\times 2.25\times 10^{16}$

$F=2.04\times 10^{-14}\ N$

Electric force is given by :

F = q E, E = electric field

$E=\dfrac{F}{q}$

$E=\dfrac{2.04\times 10^{-14}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}}$

E = 127500 N/C

So, the electric field is 127500 N/C. Hence, this is the required solution.

A spring gun consists of a spring inside a plastic tube with spring constant, k. The spring can be compressed 20 cm from its equ

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer: The spring constant is K=392.4N/m

Explanation:

According to hook's law the applied force F will be directly proportional to the extension e produced provided the spring is not distorted

The force F=ke

Where k=spring constant

e= Extention produced

h=2m

Given that

e=20cm to meter 20/100= 0.2m

m=100g to kg m=100/1000= 0.1kg

But F=mg

Ignoring air resistance

assuming g=9.81m/s²

Since the compression causes the plastic ball to poses potential energy hence energy stored in the spring

E=1/2ke²=mgh

Substituting our values to find k

First we make k subject of formula

k=2mgh/e²

k=2*0.1*9.81*2/0.1²

K=3.921/0.01

K=392.4N/m
