Answer:

Explanation:
Using the tension in the spring and the force of the tension can by describe by
T = kx
, T = mg
Therefore:

With two springs, let, T1 be the tension in each spring, x1 be the extension of each spring. The spring constant of each spring is 2k so:


Solve to x1





The system is located in the HairyFunyon aka near the floor
There is one mistake in the question.The Correct question is here
A cat falls from a tree (with zero initial velocity) at time t = 0. How far does the cat fall between t = 1/2 and t = 1 s? Use Galileo's formula v(t) = −9.8t m/s.
Answer:
y(1s) - y(1/2s) = - 3.675 m
The cat falls 3.675 m between time 1/2 s and 1 s.
Explanation:
Given data
time=1/2 sec to 1 sec
v(t)=-9.8t m/s
To find
Distance
Solution
As the acceleration as first derivative of velocity with respect to time
So
acceleration(-g)= dv/dt
Solve it
dv = a dt
dv = -g dt
v - v₀ = -gt
v= dy/dt
dy = v dt
dy = ( v₀ - gt ) dt
y(1s) - y(1/2s) = ( v₀ ) ( 1 - 1/2 ) - ( g/2 )[ ( t1)² -( t1/2s )² ]
y(1s) - y(1/2s) = ( - 9.8/2 ) [ ( 1 )² - ( 1/2 )² ]
y1s - y1/2s = ( - 4.9 m/s² ) ( 3/4 s² )
y(1s) - y(1/2s) = - 3.675 m
The cat falls 3.675 m between time 1/2 s and 1 s.
The tiny ripples on the soup are not only similar to wind-generated
waves ... they ARE wind-generated waves. This is a big part of the
reason why they bear such an uncanny resemblance.
Explanation:
If we assume negligible air resistance and heat loss, we can assume that all of the Gravitational potential energy of the ball will turn into Kinetic energy as it falls toward the ground.
Therefore our Kinetic energy = mgh = (10kg)(9.81N/kg)(100m) = 9,810J.
