Answer:

a. A = 0.1656 m

b. % E = 1.219

Explanation:

Given

mB = 4.0 kg , mb = 50.0 g = 0.05 kg , u₁ = 150  m/s , k = 500 N / m

a.

To find the amplitude of the resulting SHM using conserver energy

ΔKe + ΔUg + ΔUs = 0

¹/₂ * m * v²  -  ¹/₂ * k * A² = 0

A = √ mB * vₓ² / k

vₓ = mb * u₁ / mb + mB

vₓ = 0.05 kg * 150 m / s / [0.050 + 4.0 ] kg = 1.8518

A = √ 4.0 kg * (1.852 m/s)²   /   (500 N / m)

A = 0.1656 m

b.

The percentage of kinetic energy

%E = Es / Ek

Es = ¹/₂ * k * A² = 500 N / m * 0.1656²m = 13.72 N*0.5

Ek = ¹/₂ * mb * v² = 0.05 kg * 150² m/s = 1125 N

% E = 13.72 / 1125 = 0.01219 *100

% E = 1.219

When you’re driving on the freeway it’s necessary to keep your foot on the accelerator to keep the car moving at a constant spee
aalyn [17]

When you’re driving on the freeway it’s necessary to keep your foot on the accelerator to keep the car moving at a constant speed. In this situation  the net force on the car is zero.

The rate of change of the velocity of a particle with respect to time is called its acceleration. If the velocity of the particle changes at a constant rate, then this rate is called the constant acceleration.

Since we are using metres and seconds as our basic units, we will measure acceleration in metres per second per second. This will be abbreviated as m/s². It is also commonly abbreviated as ms⁻².

For example, if the velocity of a particle moving in a straight line changes uniformly (at a constant rate of change) from 2 m/s to 5 m/s over one second, then its constant acceleration is 3 m/s².

Zero acceleration means constant velocity. Also to be noticed is that the definition of acceleration does not involve any information about forces. Acceleration is a kinematic quantity. Irrespective of what forces are acting, if the velocity is constant, the acceleration is zero.

Define light yearend explain how and why light years are used to measure distances in the universe
yan [13]
Light years are the distance light can travel in a full year. They are used because there are really big distances in the universe that are easier to measure with a really large form of measurement (light years).

A wheel is rotating at 30.0 rpm. The wheel then accelerates uniformly to 50.0 rpm in 10.0 seconds. Determine the – a) rate of an
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The angular acceleration is 0.209\ rad/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Angular velocity, \omega_{i} = 30.0\ rpm

Angular velocity, \omega_{f} = 50.0\ rpm

Time t = 10.0 sec

We need to calculate the angular acceleration

Using formula of angular acceleration

\alpha=\dfrac{\Delta \omega}{\Delta t}

\alpha=\dfrac{\omega_{f}-\omega_{i}}{\Delta t}

\alpha=\dfrac{50.0-30.0}{10.0}

Now, we change the angular velocity in rad/s.

\omega=20\times\dfrac{2\pi}{60}

\omega=2.09\ rad/s

\alpha=\dfrac{2.09}{10.0}

\alpha=0.209\ rad/s^2

Hence, The angular acceleration is 0.209\ rad/s^2

ECONOMICS GRADE 10 CASE STUDY TOPIC: South African growth and development: Mining and industry Manufacturing and services.​
bearhunter [10]

The correct answe is South Africa - Economic Growth and Development:

After the formal end of the previous apartheid system two decades ago, South Africa can now boast having one of the richest economies in Africa and a well-functioning democracy. It is the largest economy in Africa, but it also has deeply ingrained structural issues that limit its ability to expand and flourish.

One of the largest economies on the African continent is that of South Africa. However, despite a period of rapid development from 2003 to 2007, its real GDP average yearly growth rate between 2001 and 2010 has been very weak and unquestionably significantly below the African average. A number of African nations have had substantially faster growth rates, which has improved a number of development-related indices.

By the standards of the recent growth records of several Euro Zone nations, South Africa's development is hardly sluggish! One crucial aspect of the economy is that South Africa has achieved relatively modest progress in meeting a number of important development targets and some of the Millennium Development Goals, but her economy does not appear to have achieved the "take-off" required to kick start significant development progress, especially against the backdrop of her deep social problems.
