A 0.299 kg mass slides on a frictionless floor with a speed of 1.44 m/s. The mass strikes and compresses a spring with a force c

onstant of 44.9 N/m. How far does the mass travel after contacting the spring before it comes to rest?

Answer:

x = 0.12 m

Explanation:

Let k be the spring force constant , x be the compression displacement of the spring and v be the speed of the box.

when the box encounters the spring, all the energy of the box is kinetic energy:

the energy relationship between the box and the spring is given by:

1/2(m)×(v^2) = 1/2(k)×(x^2)

    (m)×(v^2) = (k)×(x^2)

             x^2 = [(m)(v^2)]/k

                 x =  \sqrt{ [(m)(v^2)]/k}

                 x = \sqrt{ [(0.299)((1.44)^2)]/(44.9)}

                 x = 0.12 m

Therefore, the mass will travel 0.12 m and come to rest.

                    = 0.491 m/s

Differentiate between earthworm and housefly​
mash [69]

Answer:

Earthworm lives in the soil, eats the soil which has organic matter such as decaying vegetation or leaves and crawls. While housefly lives in dirty places, feeds on faeces and flies.

The perimeter of a rectangle can be found using the equation P = 2L + 2W, where P is the perimeter, L is the length, and W is th
sweet [91]

Answer:

The perimeter of the rectangle is 60 units.

Explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is given by the equation P = 2L + 2W. With W = 12 units and L = 18 units, substituting the values in the equation above:

P = 2(18 units) + 2(12 units)

P = 36 units + 24 units

P = 60 units

If gas costs $3.65 per gallon at a local service station, how many cubic feet of gas can a customer buy with $40 ?
svet-max [94.6K]
Hi, thank you for posting your question here at Brainly. 

For consistency you must convert gallons to cubic foot. The conversions are:

7.481 gal = 1 ft3

Then, $3.65 per gallon becomes $27.3 per ft3. If you buy $40 worth of gas, you get $40/$27.3 = 1.46 ft3 of gas. 

If you can travel for 4 miles per ft3, then with the amount of gas you have, you can travel up to 5.85 miles.

(4 miles/ft3)*(1.46 ft3) = 5.85 miles

Which of newton's three laws is the hardest to describe or explain when viewing common occurrences?
choli [55]

Newton's second law is the hardest to describe as it is about momentum  (F = ma), and a lot of people don't know the concept of momentum.

Newton's first law of motion:- every object moves in a straight line unless acted upon by a force.

Newton's 2nd law of motion:-the acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force exerted and inversely proportional to the item's mass. Newton's 2nd law is a quantitative description of the changes that a force can produce on the motion of a body. It states that the time rate of change of the momentum of a body is equal in both magnitude and direction to the force imposed on it.

Newton's 3rd law of motion:- For every action, there's an equal and opposite reaction.
