Explanation:

a) How much work is done by gravity?

w = f x d
w = 950 x 10 x 5.5 = 52250j

b) How much work is done by tension?

v²=u²+2as
0.75²=0.25²+2a x5.5
0.56=0.06+2a x5.5
2a x5.5 = 0.56 - 0.06
2a x 5.5 =0.5
11a=0.5
a = 0.5/11 = 0.05m/s²

w = f x d

w = 950 x 0.05 x 5.5 = 261.25j

Marysya12 [62]

We know, F = k * q₁ * q₂ / r²

Substitute the known values,
F = 9 * 10⁹ * 5 * 7 / (1.2)²

F = 315 * 10⁹ / 1.44

F = 218.75 * 10⁹ N

F = 2.1875 * 10¹¹ N [ Final Answer ]

An infant's toy has a 120 g wooden animal hanging from a spring. If pulled down gently, the animal oscillates up and down with a

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

0.37 m

Explanation:

The angular frequency, ω, of a loaded spring is related to the period, T, by

$\omega = \dfrac{2\pi}{T}$

The maximum velocity of the oscillation occurs at the equilibrium point and is given by

$v = \omega A$

A is the amplitude or maximum displacement from the equilibrium.

$v = \dfrac{2\pi A}{T}$

From the the question, T = 0.58 and A = 25 cm = 0.25 m. Taking π as 3.142,

$v = \dfrac{2\times3.142\times0.25\text{ m}}{0.58\text{ s}} = 2.71 \text{ m/s}$

To determine the height we reached, we consider the beginning of the vertical motion as the equilibrium point with velocity, v. Since it is against gravity, acceleration of gravity is negative. At maximum height, the final velocity is 0 m/s. We use the equation

$v_f^2 = v_i^2+2ah$
