Which law is associated with inertia

N76 [4]

Answer:

The focus of Lesson 1 is Newton's first law of motion - sometimes referred to as the law of inertia. An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

A 0.150-kg cart that is attached to an ideal spring with a force constant (spring constant) of 3.58 N/m undergoes simple harmoni

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

E = 0.01 J

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of the cart, m = 0.15 kg

The force constant of the spring, k = 3.58 N/m

The amplitude of the oscillations, A = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m

We need to find the total mechanical energy of the system. It can be given by the formula as follows :

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}kA^2$

Put all the values,

$E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3.58\times (0.075)^2\\\\=0.01\ J$

So, the value of total mechanical energy is equal to 0.01 J.

A net force of –8750N is used to stop of 1250.kg car travelling 25m/s. What braking distance is needed to bring the car to a hal

Karolina [17]

Answer:

d = 44.64 m

Explanation:

Given that,

Net force acting on the car, F = -8750 N

The mass of the car, m = 1250 kg

Initial speed of the car, u = 25 m/s

Final speed, v = 0 (it stops)

The formula for the net force is :

F = ma

a is acceleration of the car

$a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{-8750}{1250}\\\\a=-7\ m/s^2$

Let d be the breaking distance. It can be calculated using third equation of motion as :

$v^2-u^2=2ad\\\\d=\dfrac{v^2-u^2}{2a}\\\\d=\dfrac{0^2-(25)^2}{2\times (-7)}\\\\d=44.64\ m$

So, the required distance covered by the car is 44.64 m.

A very delicate sample is placed 0.150 cm from the objective lens of a microscope. The focal length of the objective is 0.140 cm

iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

m = 14*26 = 364

Explanation:

overall magnification is given as m

$m = m_{o}* m_{e}$

mo magnification of objective lens

me magnification of EYE lens

where mo is given as

$m_{o} = \frac{v_{o}}{-u _{0}}$

and me as

$m_{e} = 1+\frac{D}{f_{e}}$

d is distant of distinct vision = 25.0 cm for normal eye

fe = focal length of eye piece

focal length of objective lense is 0.140 cm

we know that

$\frac{1}{v_{0}}-\frac{1}{u_{0}}=\frac{1}{f_{0}}$

$\frac{1}{v_{0}} = \frac{1}{u_{0}} + \frac{1}{f_{0}}$

$\frac{1}{v_{0}} = \frac{1}{0.150} + \frac{1}{0.14}$

$\frac{1}{v_{o}} = 2.1 cm$

$m_{o} = \frac{2.1}{0.150} = 14$

$m_{e} = 1+\frac{25}{1}$

$m_{e} =26$

$m = m_{o}* m_{e}$

m = 14*26 = 364
