A 2.60kg block on a horizontal floor is attached to a horizontal spring that is initially compressed 0.0310m . The spring has fo

rce constant 810N/m . The coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the block is 0.39 . The block and spring are released from rest and the block slides along the floor.
A-What is the speed of the block when it has moved a distance of 0.0120m from its initial position? (At this point the spring is compressed 0.0190m .)

Answer:

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem we need to apply the Energy Conservation Theorem, The motion occurred on the ground so the potential gravitational energy is zero.

K_1+U_{e1}+W_f=K_2+U_{e2}

We need to calculate the work done by the friction force.

the friction force is given by:

F_f=\µ*F_N\\F_f=\µ*m*g\\F_f=0.39*2.60kg*9.8m/s^2\\F_f=9.9N

The work is given by:

W_f=F_f*d*cos(\theta)

The angle of the force is 180 degrees because it is opposite to the motion.

W_f=9.9N*(0.0120m)*cos(180)\\W_f=-0.12J

applying the theorem:

(0)+\frac{1}{2}*810N/m*(0.0310m)^2-0.12J=\frac{1}{2}*2.60*v^2+\frac{1}{2}*810N/m*(0.0190m)^2

0.269J=\frac{1}{2}*2.60*v^2+0.146J\\v=\sqrt{\frac{2*(0.269J-0.146J)}{2.60kg}}\\\\v=0.308m/s

What must the charge (sign and magnitude) of a particle of mass 1.41 gg be for it to remain stationary when placed in a downward
Yuri [45]

Answer:

q = 2.067 \times 10^{-5}\ C

Explanation:

Given,

mass = 1.41 g = 0.00141 Kg

Electric field,E = 670 N/C.

We know,

Force in charge due to Electric field.

F = E q

And also we know

F = m g

Equating both the equation of motion

m g = E q

q =\dfrac{mg}{E}

q =\dfrac{0.00141 \times 9.81}{670}

q = 2.067 \times 10^{-5}\ C

Charge of the particle is equal to q = 2.067 \times 10^{-5}\ C

On an asteroid, the density of dust particles at a height of 3 cm is ~30% of its value just above the surface of the asteroid. A
Anvisha [2.4K]

From the law of atmosphere

N_v(y) = n_0*e^{-\frac{mgy}{Kb*T}}

Where

n_0 = constant and is number density where the height y = 0cm

n_V = Number density at height y=3cm

Kb = Boltzmann constant = 1.38*10^{-23}J/K

T=20K

m = 10^{-19}kg

Re-arranging the equation to have the value of the gravity,

\frac{N_v(y)}{n_0} = e^{-\frac{mghy}{KbT}}

ln(\frac{N_v(y)}{n_0}) = -\frac{mgy}{KbT}

Since it is 30% of value above surface, therefore N_v = 0.3n_0

ln(\frac{0.3n_0}{n_0}) = -\frac{mgy}{KbT}

g = -\frac{KbT ln(0.3)}{my}

g = -\frac{(1.38*10^{-23}J/K)(20K)(Ln(0.3))}{10^{-19}(3*10^{-2})}

g = \frac{1.38*2*ln(0.3)*10^{-22}}{3*10^{-4}}

g = 1.104*10^{-1}m/s^2

g = 0.1m/s^2

Therefore the correct answer is C.

After your patched the roof, you dropped the hammer off the house and you heard it land on your toolbox on the ground 3.3s later
Schach [20]

Answer:

53.36 m.

Explanation:

Initial velocity of the toolbox u = 0

acceleration due to gravity g = 9.8 m s⁻²

time t = 3.3 s

height of roof h = ?

h = ut + 1/2 g t²

= 0 + .5 x 9.8 x 3.3²

= 53.36 m.

An electric current heats a 221 g (0.221 kg) copper wire from 20.0 °C to 38.0 °C. How much heat was generated by the current?
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Heat generated by the current = 1547.89 J

Explanation:

We have equation for heat energy H = mCΔT

Mass of copper = 0.221 kg

Specific heat of copper = 0.093 kcal/kgC° = 389.112 J/kgC°

ΔT = 38 - 20 = 18°C

Substituting in H = mCΔT

           H = 0.221 x 389.112 x 18 = 1547.89 J

Heat generated by the current = 1547.89 J

How to change V=72km/hr to m/s
lapo4ka [179]
Multiply by (1000 meters / 1 km).
Then multiply by (1 hour / 3600 seconds).

Both of those fractions are equal to ' 1 ', because the top
and bottom numbers are equal, so the multiplications
won't change the VALUE of the 72 km/hr.  They'll only
change the units.

(72 km/hour) · (1000 meters / 1 km) · (1 hour / 3600 seconds)

= (72 · 1000 / 3600) (km·meter·hour / hour·km·second)

=  20 meter/second
