What is the magnitude of the change in potential energy of the block-spring system when it travels from its lowest vertical posi

maksim [4K]

Answer:

ΔU = 2 mg h

Explanation:

In a spring mass system the potential energy is U = m g h

where h is measured from the equilibrium point of the spring

the potential energy at the highest point is

U₁ = m g h

the potential energy at the lowest point is

U₂ = m g (-h)

instead in this energy it is

ΔU = 2 mg h

In this two points the kinetic energy is zero, but there is elastic potential energy that has the same value in the two points, so its change is zero

An object experiences an impulse, moves and attains a momentum of 200 kg·m/s. If its mass is 50 kg, what is its velocity?

Nady [450]

Answer:

4 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum is defined as:

$p=mv$

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

For the object in this problem, we know:

p = 200 kg m/s is the momentum

m = 50 kg is the mass

Solving for the velocity, we find:

$v=\frac{p}{m}=\frac{200}{50}=4 m/s$

A Thomson's gazelle can run at very high speeds, but its acceleration is relatively modest. A reasonable model for the sprint of

NikAS [45]

Answer:

The gazelles top speed is 27.3 m/s.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration = 4.2 m/s²

Time = 6.5 s

Suppose we need to find the gazelles top speed

The speed is equal to the product of acceleration and time.

We need to calculate the gazelles top speed

Using formula of speed

$v=at$

Where, v = speed

a = acceleration

t = time

Put the value into the formula

$v=4.2\times6.5$

$v=27.3\ m/s$

Hence, The gazelles top speed is 27.3 m/s.

A lamp draws a current of 0.1 A when it is connected to a 122-V source. (

Setler79 [48]

The power of the lamp would be calculated with the equation of ohm laws. P = U x I = 122V x 0.1A = 12.2W

A fire helicopter carries a 580-kg bucket of water at the end of a 20.0-m long cable. Flying back from a fire at a constant spee

inn [45]

Answer:

F = 41,954 N

Explanation:

given,

mass of bucket = 580 Kg

length of the cable = 20 m

velocity = 40 m/s

angle made = 38.0°

T cos 38° = m g..............(1)

T sin 38^0 = \dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F......(2)

dividing equation (2) by (1)

$tan 38^0 = \dfrac{\dfrac{mv^2}{l} + F}{mg}$

$tan 38^0 = \dfrac{\dfrac{580\times 40^2}{20} + F}{580 \times 9.81}$

$4445.36 = \dfrac{580\times 40^2}{20} + F$

F = -46400 + 4445.36

F = -41,954 N

hence, the force is acting in the opposite direction as assumed.

F = 41,954 N
