A spring gun is made by compressing a spring in a tube and then latching the spring at the compressed position. A 4.87-g pellet

is placed against the compressed and latched spring. The spring latches at a compression of [04]____________________ cm, and it takes a force of 9.13 N to compress the spring to that point. How much work (J) is done by the spring when the latch is released and the pellet leaves the tube?

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The work done by the spring is = 0.27 J

Explanation:

Force = torque × length

Given

F = 9.13 N

length (L) = 5.91 cm  = 0.0591 m                         [Note 1 m = 100 cm ]

considering the formula above

          9.13 = k * 0.0591    where k denotes torque

          k = 154.48\ N/m

Energy Stored  = \frac{1}{2} k x^2

                          = \frac{1}{2} * 154.48 * (0.0591)^2

                         = 0.27J

Blocks A and B of unknown masses m1 and m2, respectively, are set up on an inclined plane as shown. Block A is attached to block
Korvikt [17]

Newton's second law we can find that the correct answer is:  

 E)  It cannot be determiner whick block has more masses from the information provided

Newton's second law establishes the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration of a body. Since force and acceleration are vector quantities, their components must be added on each axis

For this problem we have two bodies, let's write Newton's second law for the body B, we assume that the body B descends

            W_b - T = m_b a

            W_b  = m_b g

            m_b - T = m_b a

Where W_b is the weight of block B, T the tension of the string, mb the mass of block b and the acceleration

Now let's find the relation for block A

let's set a datum with the x axis parallel to the ramp

           T - Wₓ = mₐ a

           sin θ = Wₓ / W

            Wₓ = Wₐ sin θ

             Wₐ = mₐ g

Where Wₓ is the component of the weight, Wₐ the weight of the body A and θ the angle of the plane

Let's write our system of equations

           m_b g - T = m_b a

           T - mₐ g sin θ = mₐ a

let's add the equations

            g (m_b - mₐ sin θ) = (m_b + mₐ) a

            a =   \frac{m_b - m_a \ sin  \ \theta}{m_b+m_a} \ g

Let's analyze this expression

  • The numerator is positive the body B descends, this occurs when

          m_b - mₐ sin θ > 0

           

  • The numerator is negative, body B rises

           m_b - mₐ  sin θ <0

We can observe that the acceleration is positive or negative depending on the relation of the masses and the angle of the plane.

In conclusion using Newton's second law we find that the correct answer is  

 E )   It cannot be determiner whick block has more masses from the information provided

Thomas Newcomen was the first to produce a working steam engine. Why is the work of James Watt more widely known than the work o
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

The steam engine of James watt is more efficient than Newcomen ans more suitable for the industrial revolution.

Explanation:

James Watt is more widely know for working steam engine because Watt has created better engine which is suitable for the industrial revolution. The steam engine of James watt is more efficient than Newcomen. Watt developed the condensing arrangement by using piston which lessen the initial pressure leading to effectively worked than Newcomen's
