(8c7p26) During spring semester at MIT, residents of the parallel buildings of the East Campus dorms battle one another with lar

ge catapults that are made with surgical hose mounted on a window frame. A balloon filled with dyed water is placed in a pouch attached to the hose, which is then stretched through the width of the room. Assume that the stretching of the hose obeys Hooke's law and has a spring constant of 102 N/m. If the hose is stretched by 4.8 m and then released, how much work does the force from the hose do on the balloon in the pouch by the time the hose reaches its relaxed length

Answer: 1175 J

Explanation:

Hooke's Law states that "the strain in a solid is proportional to the applied stress within the elastic limit of that solid."

Given

Spring constant, k = 102 N/m

Extension of the hose, x = 4.8 m

from the question, x(f) = 0 and x(i) = maximum elongation = 4.8 m

Work done =

W = 1/2 k [x(i)² - x(f)²]

Since x(f) = 0, then

W = 1/2 k x(i)²

W = 1/2 * 102 * 4.8²

W = 1/2 * 102 * 23.04

W = 1/2 * 2350.08

W = 1175.04

W = 1175 J

Therefore, the hose does a work of exactly 1175 J on the balloon

(1) find the density of a substance if the mass of the substance is 150kg and dimension 20mby10mby5m
Vikentia [17]

Answer:

0.15kg/m³

Explanation:

Density = mass/ volume

Given that

Mass = 150kg

Note that volume = length x breadth x height

Volume = 20 x 10 x 5

Volume = 1000m³

Density = mass ➗ volume

Density = 150kg ➗ 1000m³

Density = 0.15kg/m³

A car has uniform velocity of 108km/hour. How far does it travel in 1 1/2 minutes
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

2.7km

Explanation:

Two methods: Convert km/hour to km/minutes or convert 3/2 minutes to hours.

Then multiply time to get the distance of the car traveled.

Greg is in a car at the top of a roller-coaster ride. The distance, d, of the car from the ground as the car descends is determi
Talja [164]
The solution to the problem is as follows:

 <span>Average = 80 
So Sum = 80 * 5 = 400 
Mode = 88, so two results are 88 (if three results were 88, then the median would be 88). 
Three results are 81, 88, and 88. 
That leaves 143. We could still have one 81 score, so that leaves the lowest score as 62. 

Greg is in a car at the top of a roller-coaster ride. The distance, d, of the car from the ground as the car descends is determined by the equation d = 144 - 16t2, where t is the number of seconds it takes the car to travel down to each point on the ride. How many seconds will it take Greg to reach the ground? 
d = 144 - 16t2 
0 = 144 - 16t2 
16t^2=144 
t^2=9 
t=3</span>

Energy transformation in wound spring of a toy car?<br>give your own answrr​
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The work done in winding the spring gets stored in the wound up spring in the form of elastic potential energy (i.e potential energy due to change in shape). ... During this process, the potential energy stored in it gets converted to kinetic energy. This turns the wheels of the toy car.

What is the force exerted on a charge of 2. 5 µC moving perpendicular through a magnetic field of 3. 0 × 102 T with a velocity o
stira [4]

The force acting on a moving charge is known as the magnetic force. The force acting on the charge will be 3.75 N.

<h3>What is the force exerted on the charge?</h3>

Magnetic fields only exert a force on a moving electric charge. A moving charge generates a magnetic field. With an increase in charge and magnetic field strength, this force rises.

when charges have higher velocities, the force is stronger. However, the magnetic force is always perpendicular to the velocity.

Mathematically the force exerted on the charge will be

F=qvBsinα

F= force acting on the charge

v = velocity of charge

q = charge

F=qvBsinα

F=2.5×10⁻⁶×5.0×10³×3.0×10²

F=37.5 N

Hence The force acting on the charge will be 3.75 N.

To learn more about the force acting on charge refer to ;

brainly.com/question/451411

F = q V B sinα

Where F is the force applied to a moving charge.

V = charge velocity

q stands for charge.

α = angle between V and B directions

As a result, the moving charge is subjected to a force of 3.75 Newton.
