A spring with a spring constant of 120 J/m2 is fixed to a wall, free to oscillate. On the other end, a ball with a mass of 1500

g is attached. The spring-mass is then stretched 50 cm, and released. What is the top speed of the attached ball? 0 A. 4.47 m/s B. 447 m/s C. 0.14 m/s D. 6.32 m/s

Answer:

A. 4.47 m/s

Explanation:

As the ball oscillates, it mechanical energy, aka the total kinetic and elastics energy stays the same. For the ball to be at maximum speed, its elastic energy i 0 and vice versa. When the ball is at rest, its kinetic energy is 0 and its elastic energy is at maximum at 50 cm, or 0.5 m

1500 g = 1.5 kg

E_e = E_k

kx^2/2 = mv^2/2

120*0.5^2/2 = 1.5*v^2/2

15 = 0.75v^2

v^2 = 15 / 0.75 = 20

v = \sqrt{20} = 4.47 m/s

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

a) d = 6.0 m

Explanation:

Since car is accelerating at uniform rate then here we can say that the distance moved by the car with uniform acceleration is given as

d = \frac{(v_f + v_i)}{2} \times t

here we know that

v_f = 10 m/s

v_i = 0

t = 1.2 s

now we will have

d = \frac{(10 + 0)}{2}\times 1.2

d = 5 \times 1.2

d = 6.0 m

4896

0.85 x 45 x 128 = 4896

Change in energy = specific heat capacity x mass x change in temperature

You drop a pencil from your desk, which is 1 meter above the floor. How long does it take for the pencil to hit the floor? How f
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

1. 0.45 s.

2. 4.41 m/s

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (h) = 1 m

Time (t) =?

Velocity (v) =?

1. Determination of the time taken for the pencil to hit the floor.

Height (h) = 1 m

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) =?

h = ½gt²

1 = ½ × 9.8 × t²

1 = 4.9 × t²

Divide both side by 4.8

t² = 1/4.9

Take the square root of both side

t = √(1/4.9)

t = 0.45 s.

Thus, it will take 0.45 s for the pencil to hit the floor.

2. Determination of the velocity with which the pencil hit the floor.

Initial velocity (u) = 0 m/s

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Time (t) = 0.45 s.

Final velocity (v) =?

v = u + gt

v = 0 + (9.8 × 0.45)

v = 0 + 4.41

v = 4.41 m/s

Thus, the pencil hit the floor with a velocity of 4.41 m/s

A balloon of diameter 20.0 cm is filled with helium gas at 30°C at 1.00 atm. How
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

N = 3.54 * 10²³ atoms

Explanation:

The formula to apply here is the idea gas law;

PV = nRT  where ;

P= pressure of the gas= 1.013 * 10⁵ Pa

V= volume of the gas = 4/3 * 3.14 *0.15³= 0.01414 m³

n= amount of a substance = ?

R= ideal gas constant= 8.314

T= temperature= 293 K

Applying the values to the formula;

PV = nRT

1.013 * 10⁵ * 0.01414 = n * 8.314*293

n= 1.013 * 10⁵ * 0.01414 / 8.314*293

n= 0.588 moles

1 mole = 6.022 * 10²⁷ atoms/ mole

0.588 moles = 0.588 * 6.022 * 10²⁷

N = 3.54 * 10²³ atoms
