A block of mass 0.510 kg is pushed against a horizontal spring of negligible mass until the spring is compressed a distance x. T

he force constant of the spring is 450 N/m. When it is released, the block travels along a frictionless, horizontal surface to point circled A, the bottom of a vertical circular track of radius R = 1.00 m, and continues to move up the track. The speed of the block at the bottom of the track is vA = 13.7 m/s, and the block experiences an average frictional force of 7.00 N while sliding up the track. What is x? and what is the speed of the block if it reaches the top?

Answer:

x=0.46m, speed=7.9m/s

Explanation:

Using the concept of conservation of energy:

1. kinetic energy of mass m and velocity v: E_k=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

2. gravitational potential energy of mass m, grav. acc. g and height h: E_g=mgh

3. potential energy in a spring with spring constant k and displacement from equilibrium x: E_s=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

Calculating x:

\frac{1}{2}mv_a^2=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

x=\sqrt{\frac{m}{k}}v_a

Calculating the speed:

\frac{1}{2}mv_a^2 +mgh_a=\frac{1}{2}mv_b^2+mgh_b + W_{friction}

h_a=0, h_b=2R,W_{friction}=F_{friction}\times distance=7\pi R

\frac{1}{2}mv_a^2=\frac{1}{2}mv_b^2+2mgR+7\pi R

Solving for v_b:

v_b=\sqrt{v_a^2-4gR-14\pi\frac{R}{m}}

Eric has a mass of 70 . He is standing on a scale in an elevator that is accelerating downward at 1.7 . What is the approximate
pychu [463]

Answer:

B)

Explanation:

The value the scale shows is the reaction force to the normal force (they are equal by Newton's 3rd Law) that the scale exerts on Eric.

The forces on Eric are his weight (downward) and this normal force (upward), so we can write the net force over him as (also using Newton's 2nd Law):

F=W-N=ma

which means

N=W-ma=mg-ma=m(g-a)

and for our values this is:

N=mg-ma=(70kg)(9.8m/s^2-1.7m/s^2)=567N

How would the magnetic field lines appear for a bar magnet cut at the midpoint, with the two pieces placed end to end with a spa
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

cutting the magnet in two parts each part has a North and South pole,

Explanation:

In magnetism the magnetic mono-poles are not found, this means that we do not have magnetic charges alone, therefore when cutting the magnet in two parts each part has a North and South pole, the magnetic lines go from the North pole to the South pole, see attached.

The density of the lines is approximately the intensity of the magnetic field.

ou have been called to testify as an expert witness in a trial involving a head-on collision. Car A weighs 660.0 kg and was trav
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

    vₐ₀ = 29.56 m / s

Explanation:

In this exercise the initial velocity of car A is asked, to solve it we must work in parts

* The first with the conservation of the moment

* the second using energy conservation

let's start with the second part

we must use the relationship between work and kinetic energy

             W = ΔK                             (1)

for this part the mass is

             M = mₐ + m_b

the final velocity is zero, the initial velocity is v

friction force work is

              W = - fr x

the negative sign e because the friction forces always oppose the movement

we write Newton's second law for the y-axis

              N -W = 0

              N = W = Mg

friction forces have the expression

              fr =μ N

              fr = μ M g

we substitute in 1

               -μ M g x = 0 - ½ M v²

             v² = 2 μ g x

let's calculate

              v² = 2  0.750  9.8  6.00

              v = ra 88.5

              v = 9.39 m / s

Now we can work on the conservation of the moment, for this part we define a system formed by the two cars, so that the forces during the collision are internal and therefore the tsunami is preserved.

Initial instant. Before the crash

         p₀ = + mₐ vₐ₀ - m_b v_{bo}

instant fianl. Right after the crash, but the cars are still not moving

         p_f = (mₐ + m_b) v

         p₀ = p_f

         + mₐ vₐ₀ - m_b v_{bo} = (mₐ + m_b) v

           

         mₐ vₐ₀ = (mₐ + m_b) v + m_b v_{bo}

let's reduce to the SI system

          v_{bo} = 64.0 km / h (1000m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 17.778 m / s

let's calculate

         660 vₐ₀ = (660 +490) 9.39 + 490 17.778

         vₐ₀ = 19509.72 / 660

         vₐ₀ = 29.56 m / s

we can see that car A goes much faster than vehicle B
