2 answers:

5 0

The term pressure refers to the force per area created by the weight
of anything whose weight is distributed over an area, such as the
Earth's atmosphere, a lake, a gas inside a sealed jar, or a pointy
high heel.

A block with mass 0.5 kg is forced against a horizontal spring of negligible mass, compressing the spring a distance of 0.2 m. W

lianna [129]

Answer:

So coefficient of kinetic friction will be equal to 0.4081

Explanation:

We have given mass of the block m = 0.5 kg

The spring is compressed by length x = 0.2 m

Spring constant of the sprig k = 100 N/m

Blocks moves a horizontal distance of s = 1 m

Work done in stretching the spring is equal to $W=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 100\times 0.2^2=2J$

This energy will be equal to kinetic energy of the block

And this kinetic energy must be equal to work done by the frictional force

So $\mu mg\times s=2$

$\mu\times 0.5\times 9.8\times 1=2$

$\mu =0.4081$

So coefficient of kinetic friction will be equal to 0.4081

Which of the following represents a fully plastic collision? 1. Two billiard balls hit each other then move in opposite directio

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Option (4)

Explanation:

There are two types of collision.

Perfectly elastic collision: the collision in which the momentum and kinetic energy is conserved. There is no loss of energy in other forms of energy.

Perfectly plastic collision: The collision in which the momentum is conserved and kinetic energy is not conserved. The two bodies stick after the collision.

Here, the bullet hits the block and then embedded in the block, it is the example of plastic collision.
