<u>Answer </u>

He should make the arrow for “Path” curve downward.

<u>Explanation </u>

The force of gravity is usually directly downward. So from the diagram, it is correctly labelled.

If the object was given a horizontal force, the direction of the inertial is also correct. Inertial is the force the resist the change of state of motion.

What Hector should change is the path followed by the object. It will be a curve not a straight line as it is drawn.

The correct answer is He should make the arrow for “Path” curve downward.

Let us review the answers given.
1. He should switch the labels "Gravity" and "Inertia".
These labels are correct, so no change is required.

2. He should make the arrow for "Path" curve downward.
This statement is correct.

3. He should switch the labels "Inertia" and "Path".
No change is required.

4. He should make the arrow for "Inertia" curve downward.
This statement is incorrect.

Answer:
Hector should make the arrow for "Path" curve downward as shown in the figure.

A. The potential energy stored in the compressed spring of a dart gun, with a spring constant of 62.00 N/m, is 0.940 J. Find by

valina [46]

a. The spring is compressed by 0.174 m.

b. The vertical distance the dart travels from its position when the spring is compressed to its highest position is 9.6 m.

c. The horizontal velocity of the dart at that time is 13.74 m/s.

d. The horizontal distance from the equilibrium position at which the dart hits the ground is 19.236 m.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

The energy by virtue of its position is called the potential energy.

a. Given is the potential energy stored in the compressed spring of a dart gun, with a spring constant of 62.00 N/m, is 0.940 J.

PE of spring = 1/2 kx²

Put the values, we get

P.E = 0.940 = 1/2 x 62 x²

x = 0.174 m

Thus, the spring is compressed by 0.174 m.

b. Given is a 0.010 kg dart is fired straight up.

The vertical height is find out by

0.940 J = (0.010 kg) (9.8 m/s²) h

h = 9.6 m

Thus, the vertical distance the dart travels from its position is 9.6 m

c. From the conservation of energy principle, total mechanical energy is conserved.

1/2 mv² =mgh

v = √2gh

Plug the values, we get

v = √2 x 9.8x 9.6

v = 13.74 m/s

Thus, the horizontal velocity is 13.74 m/s.

d. Time that dart spends in air, t = √2h/g

t = √(2x9.6)/9.81

t = 1.4 s

The horizontal distance from the equilibrium position at which the dart hits the ground.

Horizontal distance = (Velocity on x direction) x time

Horizontal distance = 13.74 m/s x 1.4s

Horizontal distance = 19.236 m

Thus, the horizontal distance is 19.236 m.

As a laudably skeptical physics student, you want to test Coulomb's law. For this purpose, you set up a measurement in which a p

kherson [118]

Explanation:

The Coulomb's law states that the magnitude of each of the electric forces between two point-at-rest charges is directly proportional to the product of the magnitude of both charges and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates them:

$F=\frac{kq_1q_2}{d^2}$

In this case we have an electron (-e) and a proton (e), so:

$F=-\frac{ke^2}{d^2}\\F=-\frac{8.99*10^9\frac{N\cdot m^2}{s^2}(1.6*10^{-19}C)^2}{(933*10^{-9}m)^2}\\F=-2.64*10^{-16}N$

In this case, the electric force is negative, therefore, the force is repulsive and its magnitude is:

$F=2.64*10^{-16}N$

Which type of waves from the electromagnetic spectrum are used in heat lamps and heat sensing devices?

Alex73 [517]

Infrared waves are used in heat lamps and other heat sensing devices. Infrared waves or commonly known as Infrared radiations (IR) is the type of electromagnetic radiation we encounter most in our everyday life. Heat lamps are electrical devices which emit infrared radiation.
