Answer:
V=15.3 m/s
Explanation:
To solve this problem, we have to use the energy conservation theorem:
the elastic potencial energy is given by:
The work is defined as:
this work is negative because is opposite to the movement.
The gravitational potencial energy at 2.5 m aboves is given by:
the gravitational potential energy at the ground and the kinetic energy at the begining are 0.
Answer:
E. Zero Maximum
Explanation:
At the point of maximum displacement, the speed is zero while the restoring force is maximum. In fact:
- The restoring force is given by , where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement - at the point of maximum displacement, x is maximum, so F is maximum as well
- the total energy of the system is sum of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy:
where m is the mass of the system and v is the speed. Since E (the total energy) is constant due to the law of conservation of energy, we have that when K increases, U decreases, and viceversa. As a result, when x increases, v decreases, and viceversa. At the point of maximum displacement, x is maximum, so v will have its minimum value (which is zero, since the system is changing direction of motion).
