1.60 kg frictionless block is attached to an ideal spring with force constant 315 N/m . Initially the spring is neither stretche

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

(a). The amplitude of the motion is 0.926 m.

(b). The block’s maximum acceleration is 182.31 m/s².

(c). The maximum force the spring exerts on the block is 291.69 N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of block =1.60 kg

Force constant = 315 N/m

Speed = 13.0 m/s

(a). We need to calculate the amplitude of the motion

Using conservation of energy

$\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2$

$A^2=\dfrac{mv^2}{k}$

Put the value into the relation

$A^2=\dfrac{1.60\times13.0^2}{315}$

$A=\sqrt{0.858}$

$A=0.926\ m$

(b). We need to calculate the block’s maximum acceleration

Using formula of acceleration

$a=A\omega^2$

$a=A\times\dfrac{k}{m}$

Put the value into the formula

$a=0.926\times\dfrac{315}{1.60}$

$a=182.31\ m/s^2$

(c). We need to calculate the maximum force the spring exerts on the block

Using formula of force

$F=ma$

Put the value into the formula

$F= 1.60\times182.31$

$F=291.69\ N$

Hence, (a). The amplitude of the motion is 0.926 m.

(b). The block’s maximum acceleration is 182.31 m/s².

(c). The maximum force the spring exerts on the block is 291.69 N.

At what speed, as a fraction of c , is a particle's total energy twice its rest energy

WINSTONCH [101]

The rest energy of a particle is
$E_0=m_0 c^2$
where $m_0$ is the rest mass of the particle and c is the speed of light.

The total energy of a relativistic particle is
$E=mc^2 = \frac{m_0 c^2}{ \sqrt{1- \frac{v^2}{c^2} } }$
where v is the speed of the particle.

We want the total energy of the particle to be twice its rest energy, so that
$E=2E_0$
which means:
$\frac{m_0c^2}{ \sqrt{1- \frac{v^2}{c^2} } }=2m_0 c^2$
$\frac{1}{ \sqrt{1- \frac{v^2}{c^2} } }=2$
From which we find the ratio between the speed of the particle v and the speed of light c:
$\frac{v}{c}= \sqrt{1- (\frac{1}{2})^2 } =0.87$
So, the particle should travel at 0.87c in order to have its total energy equal to twice its rest energy.

An important measure of LCD monitors is the time in milliseconds (ms) that it takes to turn a pixel on or off. What is this call

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Response Time

Explanation:

The time in milliseconds that LCD monitors takes to turn a pixel on or off is called Response time. A lower response time means that the LCD is able to cut down blurring or Ghosting of images thus producing better quality images.

Response time in general terms is the time interval that a system or a person takes to react to given input or event.

A paint brush is dropped from the top of a tall ladder and free falls to the ground. What changes, if any, would be observed of

muminat

Answer:

Explanation:

As the paint brush is dropped from the top of a tall ladder it started free falling

i.e. velocity of brush increases as it falls down due to the acceleration provided by gravity.

We know acceleration due to gravity is the attraction experienced by the object due to earth attraction

Value of acceleration due to gravity is constant i.e. $9.8\ m/s^2$

Therefore the correct choice is

velocity is increasing and acceleration is constant
