Answer:

Explanation:

Given

mass of ice cube m=50 gm

inclination \theta =25^{\circ}

Spring constant k=25\ N/m

initial compression x=0.1 m

Suppose Initially the cube is at the datum  and it moves h height after release

So Elastic Potential Energy of Spring will convert to Potential Energy of cube

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

\frac{1}{2}\times 25\times (0.1)^2=50\times 10^{-3}\times 9.8\times h

h=0.255 m

so final Potential Energy will be =mgh=0.05\times 9.8\times 0.255=0.125 J

Initial Potential Energy=0 J

B.Initially spring is at compression so energy associated with it is its Elastic Potential Energy i.e. 0.125 J

Final Energy=0 J

Answer: distance = 0.6 m

Explanation:

Given that:

Mass = 50g = 0.05kg

Ø = 25 degree

K = 25 N/m

Extension x = 0.1m

Let us first consider the total energy in the system.

Sum of the total energy = 0

That is

Final E - Initial E = 0

K.E, P.E and energy in the spring.

This equation will be reduced to

Mgh - 1/2mv^2 - 1/2Kx^2 = 0

Final velocity = 0 because of the spring energy

Initial height = 0

Final spring E = 0 as the spring returns to it normal length. Therefore,

Mgh - 1/2mv^2 - 1/2Kx^2 = 0

Since the ice cube was initially at rest, initial V = 0

Mgh = 1/2Kx^2

0.05 × 9.81 × h = 0.5 × 25 × 0.1^2

h = 0.125/0.4905

h = 0.255 m

how far will it travel up the slope before reversing direction?

Using SohCahToa for a right angle

SinØ = h/d

Where d = distance travel

Sin25 = 0.255/d

d = 0.255/sin 25

d = 0.603 m

A 3.0 kg object moving 8.0 m/s in the positive x direction has a one-dimensional elastic collision with an object (mass = M) ini
finlep [7]
<h2>Option 2 is the correct answer.</h2>

Explanation:

Elastic collision means kinetic energy and momentum are conserved.

Let the mass of object be m and M.

Initial velocity object 1 be u₁,  object 2 be u₂

Final velocity object 1 be v₁,  object 2 be v₂

Initial momentum = m x u₁ + M x u₂ = 3 x 8 + M x 0 = 24 kgm/s

Final momentum = m x v₁ + M x v₂ = 3 x v₁ + M x 6 = 3v₁ + 6M

Initial kinetic energy = 0.5 m x u₁² + 0.5 M x u₂² = 0.5 x 3 x 8² + 0.5 x M x 0² = 96 J

Final kinetic energy = 0.5 m x v₁² + 0.5 M x v₂² = 0.5 x 3 x v₁² + 0.5 x M x 6² = 1.5 v₁² + 18 M

We have

            Initial momentum = Final momentum

            24 = 3v₁ + 6M

            v₁ + 2M = 8

             v₁ = 8 - 2M

            Initial kinetic energy = Final kinetic energy

            96 = 1.5 v₁² + 18 M

            v₁² + 12 M = 64

Substituting  v₁ = 8 - 2M

           (8 - 2M)² + 12 M = 64    

           64 - 32M + 4M² + 12 M = 64    

            4M² = 20 M

               M = 5 kg

Option 2 is the correct answer.

Why do you not come to thermal equilibrium on a cold day
Tju [1.3M]

Two physical systems are in thermal equilibrium if no heat flows between them when they are connected by a path permeable to heat. Thermal equilibrium obeys the zeroth law of thermodynamics. A system is said to be in thermal equilibrium with itself if the temperature within the system is spatially and temporally uniform.

Systems in thermodynamic equilibrium are always in thermal equilibrium, but the converse is not always true. If the connection between the systems allows transfer of energy as heat but does not allow transfer of matter or transfer of energy as work, the two systems may reach thermal equilibrium without reaching thermodynamic equilibrium.

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The range of powers is    - 5 \ D \le P \le - 2.667\  D

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

       The far point of the left eye is n_f = 20 cm

       The near point of the left eye is  n =  15cm

       The near point with the glasses on is n_g =25 \ cm

     

From these parameter we can see that with the glass on that for near point the

         Object distance would be u = -25 \ cm

          Image distance would be  v =  -15 \ cm

To obtain the focal length we would apply the lens formula which is mathematically represented as

              \frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{v}  -  \frac{1}{u}

substituting values

              \frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{-15}  -  \frac{1}{-25}

               f =  - \frac{75}{2} cm

           converting to  meters

               f =  - \frac{75}{2} * \frac{1}{100}

               f =  - \frac{75}{200} \ m

   Generally the power of the lens is mathematically represented as

                P  = \frac{1}{f}

Substituting values

                 P = -  \frac{200}{75}  m

                 P = - 2.667 \ D

   

From these parameter we can see that with the glass on that for far  point the

         Object distance would be u_f = - \infty \ cm

          Image distance would be  v_f =  -20  \ cm

To obtain the focal length of the lens we would apply the lens formula which is mathematically represented as

                    \frac{1}{f_f} =  \frac{1}{v_f}  -  \frac{1}{u_f}

substituting values

                  \frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{-20}  -  \frac{1}{- \infty}

                 \frac{1}{f} =  \frac{1}{-20}  -  0      

                  f_f =  \frac{20}{1}  \ cm

converting to  meters

                f_f =  - \frac{20}{1}  * \frac{1}{100}

               

Generally the power of the lens is mathematically represented as

                P  = \frac{1}{f_f}

Substituting values

                 P = -  \frac{100}{20}  m

                 P = - 5 \ D

This implies that the range of powers of the lens in his glass is

                  - 5 \ D \le P \le - 2.667\  D
