Answer:

 The potential energy of the rock = 10.5 kN

Explanation:

 Mass of rock = 25 kg

 Acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

 Height = 42 m

 Potential energy, PE = mgh, where m is the mass, g is acceleration due to gravity and h is the height.

 PE = 25 x 10 x 42 = 10500 N = 10.5 kN

 The potential energy of the rock = 10.5 kN

Answer:

The answer is Potential energy is equal to 10500 Joules

Step by step Explanation:

1) Potential Energy is the energy that a body located at a certain height above the ground has.

2) The potential energy is expressed by the formula PE = mgh where (PE) is the potential energy (m) represents the mass, (g) represents the acceleration of gravity, and (h) represents the height.

3) Knowing this we can continue to replace the values given in the problem:

PE = (25Kg)(10m/s^2)(42m)

PE = 10500J

A 2.45-kg frictionless block is attached to an ideal spring with force constant 355 N/m. Initially the spring is neither stretch
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

A.    A = 0.913 m

B.    amax = 132.24m/s^2

C.    Fmax = 324.01N

Explanation:

When the block is moving at the equilibrium point , its velocity is maximum.

A. To find the amplitude of the motion you use the following formula for the maximum velocity:

v_{max}=A\omega          (1)

vmax = maximum velocity = 11.0 m/s

A: amplitude of the motion = ?

w: angular frequency = ?

Then, you have to calculate the angular frequency of the motion, by using the following formula:

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}           (2)

k: spring constant = 355 N/m

m: mass of the object = 2.54 kg

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{355N/m}{2.45kg}}=12.03\frac{rad}{s}

Next, you solve the equation (1) for A and replace the values of vmax and w:

A=\frac{v}{\omega}=\frac{11.0m/s}{12.03rad/s}=0.913m

The amplitude of the motion is 0.913m

B. The maximum acceleration of the block is given by:

a_{max}=A\omega^2 = (0.913m)(12.03rad/s)^2=132.24\frac{m}{s^2}

The maximum acceleration is 132.24 m/s^2

C. The maximum force is calculated by using the second Newton law and the maximum acceleration:

F_{max}=ma_{max}=(2.45kg)(132.24m/s^2)=324.01N

It is also possible to calculate the maximum force by using:

Fmax = k*A = (355N/m)(0.913m) = 324.01N

The maximum force exertedbu the spring on the object is 324.01 N
