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}}

A weight lifter lifts a dumbbell a certain height in 2.0 s, while a competitor does the same workin 1.0 s. Compared to the power
Aloiza [94]

Answer:

a. one-half as great

Explanation:

The power developed by the first lifter is one-half as great as that of the second person.

  Power is defined as the rate at which work is done;

          Power  = \frac{workdone}{time}

Since the two lifters do the same work at different time, let us estimate their power;

       P₁ = \frac{workdone}{2}                     P₂ = \frac{workdone }{1}

   We see that for P₁, power is half of the work done whereas in P₂ power is the same as the work done.

Therefore,

           The power of the first weight lifter is one-half the second lifter.

When the mass of the bottle is 0.125 kg, the average maximum height of the beanbag is m. When the mass of the bottle is 0.250 kg
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

when the mass of the bottle is 0.125 kg, the average height of the beanbag is 0.35 m.

when the mass of the bottle is 0.250 kg, the average maximum height of the beanbag is 0.91m.

when the mass of the bottle is 0.375 kg, the average maximum height of the beanbag is 1.26m.

when the mass of the bottle is 0.500 kg, the average maximum height of the beanbag is 1.57m.

The electromagnetic spectrum is the range of all types of radiation. Radiation is energy that travels and spreads out as it goes – the visible light that comes from a lamp in your house and the radio waves that come from a radio station are two types of electromagnetic radiation. The other types of EM radiation that make up the electromagnetic spectrum are microwaves, infrared light, ultraviolet light, X-rays and gamma-rays.
