The amount of energy needed is 2093 J

Explanation:

The amount of energy needed to increase the temperature of a substance by $\Delta T$ is given by the equation

$Q=mC\Delta T$

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

$\Delta T$ is the increase in temperature

For the water in this problem, we have

m = 50.0 g = 0.050 kg

$C=4186 J/g^{\circ}C$ (specific heat capacity of water)

$\Delta T=10.0^{\circ}C$

Therefore, the amount of energy needed is

$Q=(0.050)(4186)(10)=2093 J$

You have a two-wheel trailer that you pull behind your ATV. Two children with a combined mass of 77.2 kg hop on board for a ride

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the kinematic equations of motion and Hook's law.

By Hook's law we know that force is defined as,

$F= kx$

Where,

k = spring constant

x = Displacement change

PART A) For the case of the spring constant we can use the above equation and clear k so that

$k= \frac{F}{x}$

$k = \frac{mg}{x}$

$k= \frac{77.2*9.8}{0.0637}$

$k = 11876.92N/m$

Therefore the spring constant for each one is 11876.92/2 = 5933.46N/m

PART B) In the case of speed we can obtain it through the period, which is given by

$T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega}$

Re-arrange to find \omega,

$\omega = \frac{2\pi}{T}$

$\omega = \frac{2\pi}{2.14}$

$\omega = 2.93rad/s$

Then through angular kinematic equations where angular velocity is given as a function of mass and spring constant we have to

$\omega^2 = \frac{k}{m}$

$m = \frac{k}{\omega^2}$

$m = \frac{ 11876.92}{2.93}$

$m = 4093.55Kg$

Therefore the mass of the trailer is 4093.55Kg

PART C) The frequency by definition is inversely to the period therefore

$f = \frac{1}{T}$

$f = \frac{1}{2.14}$

$f = 0.4672 Hz$

Therefore the frequency of the oscillation is 0.4672 Hz

PART D) The time it takes to make the route 10 times would be 10 times the period, that is

$t_T = 10*T$

$t_T = 10 *2.14s$

$t_T = 21.4s$

Therefore the total time it takes for the trailer to bounce up and down 10 times is 21.4s

Consider a roller coaster begins 15m above the ground. If the cart has a mass of 75kg, what is the velocity of the cart halfway

SashulF [63]

Answer:

v = 12.12 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the cart, m = 75 kg

The roller coaster begins 15 m above the ground.

We need to find the velocity of the cart halfway to the ground. Let the velocity be v. Using the conservation of energy at this position, h = 15/2 = 7.5 m

$mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\v=\sqrt{2gh} \\\\v=\sqrt{2\times 9.8\times 7.5} \\\\v=12.12\ m/s$

So, the velocity of the cart is 12.12 m/s.
