A spring with spring constant of 26 N/m is stretched 0.22 m from its equilibrium position. How much work must be done to stretch

it an additional 0.12 m

Answer:

1.503 J

Explanation:

Work done in stretching a spring = 1/2ke²

W = 1/2ke²........................... Equation 1

Where W = work done, k = spring constant, e = extension.

Given: k = 26 N/m, e = (0.22+0.12), = 0.34 m.

Substitute into equation 1

W = 1/2(26)(0.34²)

W = 13(0.1156)

W = 1.503 J.

Hence the work done to stretch it an additional 0.12 m = 1.503 J

The front and rear sprockets on a bicycle have radii of 8.40 and 4.91 cm, respectively. The angular speed of the front sprocket
Rudik [331]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Radius of the front sprockets, r_f=8.4\ cm=0.084\ m

Radius of the rear sprockets, r_r=4.91\ cm=0.0491\ m

The angular speed of the front sprocket is 12.3 rad/s, \omega_f=12.3\ rad/s

(a) Linear speed of the front sprockets, v_f=r_f\times \omega

v_f=0.084\times 12.3    

v_f=1.0332\ m/s

v_f=103.32\ cm/s

Linear speed of the rear sprockets, v_r=r_r\times \omega

v_r=0.0491\times 12.3    

v_r=0.60393\ m/s

v_r=60.393\ cm/s

(b) Let a_r is the centripetal acceleration of the chain as it passes around the rear sprocket.

a_r=\dfrac{v_r^2}{r_r}

a_r=\dfrac{(60.393)^2}{0.0491}

a_r=74283.39\ m/s^2

a_r=7428339\ cm/s^2

`Hence, this is the required solution.

Which statement explains how it is possible to carry books to school without changing the kinetic or potential energy of the boo
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

a. by moving the book without acceleration and keeping the height of the book constant

Explanation:

FOR CONSTANT KINETIC ENERGY:

The kinetic energy of a body depends upon its speed according to its formula:

ΔK.E = (1/2)mΔv²

So, for Δv = 0 m/s

ΔK.E = 0 J

So, for keeping kinetic energy constant, the books must be moved at constant speed without acceleration.

FOR CONSTANT POTENTIAL ENERGY:

The potential energy of a body depends upon its height according to its formula:

ΔP.E = mgΔh

So, for Δh = 0 m/s

ΔP.E = 0 J

So, for keeping potential energy constant, the books must be moved at constant height.

So, the correct option is:

<u>a. by moving the book without acceleration and keeping the height of the book constant</u>
