After the box comes to rest at position x1, a person starts pushing the box, giving it a speed v1. when the box reaches position

x2 (where x2>x1), how much work wp has the person done on the box? assume that the box reaches x2 after the person has accelerated it from rest to speed v1. express the work in terms of m, v0, x1, x2, and v1.

As we know by work energy theorem

total work done = change in kinetic energy

so here we can say that wok done on the box will be equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system

W_p = KE_f - KE_i

initial the box is at rest at position x = x1

so initial kinetic energy will be ZERO

at final position x = x2 final kinetic energy is given as

KE_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

now work done is given as

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 - 0

so we can say

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

so above is the work done on the box to slide it from x1 to x2

A research submarine has a 20-cm-diameter window that is 9.0 cm thick. The manufacturer says the window can withstand forces up
Ratling [72]

Answer:

The maximum safe depth in salt water is 3758.2 m.

Explanation:

Given that,

Diameter = 20 cm

Radius = 10 cm

Thickness = 9.0 cm

Force F = 1.2\times10^{6}\ N

Inside pressure = 1.0 atm

We need to calculate the area

Using formula of area

A=\pi\times r^2

Put the value into the formula

A=\pi\times(10\times10^{-2})^2

A=0.0314\ m^2

We need to calculate the pressure

Using formula of pressure

P=\dfrac{F}{A}

Put the value into the formula

P=\dfrac{1.2\times10^{6}}{0.0314}

P=38216560.50\ Pa

P=3.8\times10^{7}\ Pa

We need to calculate the maximum depth

Using equation of pressure

P=P_{atm}+\rho gh

h=\dfrac{P-P_{atm}}{\rho g}

Put the value into the formula

h=\dfrac{3.8\times10^{7}-101325}{1029\times9.8}

h=3758.2\ m

Hence, The maximum safe depth in salt water is 3758.2 m.

A cart starts from rest and accelerates uniformly at 4.0 m/s2 for 5.0 s. It next maintains the velocity it has reached for 10 s.
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

12m/s

Explanation:

v_f=v_o+at

Let's call the velocity that the car maintains for 10 seconds v_f_1, and the final velocity v_f_2.

v_f_1=0+(4)(5)=20m/s \\\\v_f_2=20+(-2)(4)=12m/s

Hope this helps!
