A 0.454-kg block is attached to a horizontal spring that is at its equilibrium length, and whose force constant is 21.0 N/m. The

block rests on a frictionless surface. A 5.90×10−2-kg wad of putty is thrown horizontally at the block, hitting it with a speed of 8.97 m/s and sticking.

Answer:

a. Δx = 2.59 cm

Explanation:

mb = 0.454 kg , mp = 5.9 x 10 ⁻² kg , vp = 8.97 m / s , k = 21.0 N / m

Using momentum conserved

mb * (0) + mp * vp = ( mb + mp ) * vf

vf = ( mp / mp + mb) * vp

¹/₂ * ( mp + mb) * (mp / mp +mb) ² * vp ² = ¹/₂ * k * Δx²

Solve to Δx '

Δx = √ ( mp² * vp² ) / ( k * ( mp + mb )

Δx = √ ( ( 5.9 x 10⁻² kg ) ² * (8.97  m /s) ²  / [ 21.0 N / m * ( 5.9 x10 ⁻² kg + 0.454 kg ) ]

Δx = 0.02599 m  ⇒ 2.59 cm

HELP PLEASE I NEED THE ANSWERS FAST (15 POINTS)
ahrayia [7]

Answer: 1) Cold water is more dense and will sink in room temperature water.

2) Cold salty water is denser than warm freshwater.

3) Temperature is the measure of heat. Density is the measure of how closely any given entity is packed or it is the ratio of the mass of the entity to its volume.

4) Salinity and density share a positive relationship. As density increases, the amount of salt in water-also known as salinity- increases.

A bullet of mass 0.01 kg moving horizontally strikes a block of wood of mass 1.5 kg which is suspended as a pendulum. The bullet
jekas [21]

Answer:

423m/s

Explanation:

Suppose after the impact, the bullet-block system swings upward a vertical distance of 0.4 m. That's means their kinetic energy is converted to potential energy:

E_p = E_k

mgh = mv^2/2

where m is the total mass and h is the vertical distance traveled, v is the velocity right after the impact at, which we can solve by divide both sides my m

Let g = 9.81 m/s2

gh = v^2/2

v^2 = 2gh = 2 * 9.81* 0.4 = 7.848

v = \sqrt{7.848} = 2.8m/s

According the law of momentum conservation, momentum before and after the impact must be the same

m_uv_u + m_ov_o = (m_u + m_o)v

where m_u = 0.01, v_u are the mass and velocity of the bullet before the impact, respectively.m_ov_o are the mass and velocity of the block before the impact, respectively, which is 0 because the block was stationary before the impact

0.01v_u + 0 = (0.01 + 1.5)*2.8

0.01v_u = 4.23

v_u = 4.23 / 0.01 = 423 m/s

A marathon runner runs a 200m sprint in 10 seconds. It is known that he started standing still. Then determine the acceleration
VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The acceleration of the runner is 0.25 m/s²

Explanation:

Given;

distance covered by the runner, d = 200 m

time of motion, t = 10 s

initial velocity of the runner, u = 0 (he started standing still)

final velocity of the runner, v = 36 km/h = 10 m/s

Therefore, to achieve the final speed of the runner, his acceleration is calculated as follows;

v² = u² + 2as

10² = 0 + (2 x 200)a

100 = 400a

a = 100/400

a = 0.25 m/s²

The acceleration of the runner is 0.25 m/s²
