A block of mass 2.95 kg is placed against a horizontal spring of constant k = 820 N/m and pushed so the spring compresses by 0.0

800 m. (a) What is the spring potential energy of the block-spring system? 2.624 Correct: Your answer is correct. J (b) If the block is now released and the surface is frictionless, calculate the block's speed after leaving the spring.

Answer:

(a) 2.624

(b) 1.334

Explanation:

The given data in the question is:

Mass = 2.95 kg

Spring constant "k" = 820 N/m

Compression of Spring "x" = 0.0800m

Using this data and the equation to find the answer for spring potential energy:

spring potential energy = 1/2 kx²

= 1/2 (820 N/m)(0.0800m)²

= 2.624 Joules

(b) - It is given that the surface is friction-less which means no loss of energy during the motion of spring. This means that all the potential energy possessed by the spring converts to Kinetic Energy of the block. We can equate spring potential energy with Kinetic energy to find the block's speed as below:

Kinetic Energy = 1/2mv² where "m" is mass and "v" is velocity of the object

1/2mv² =  spring potential energy (found in part "a" above)

1/2(2.95 kg)v² = 2.624 Joules

v² = (2.624 x 2) / 2.95

v² = 1.779

v = √1.779

v = 1.334 m/s

Two friction disks A and B are brought into contact when the angular velocity of disk A is 240 rpm counterclockwise and disk B i
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

a) αA = 4.35 rad/s²

αB = 1.84 rad/s²

b) t = 3.7 rad/s²

Explanation:

Given:

wA₀ = 240 rpm = 8π rad/s

wA₁ = 8π -αA*t₁

The angle in B is:

\theta _{B} =4\pi =\frac{1}{2} \alpha _{B} t_{1}^{2}  =\frac{1}{2} (\frac{r_{A} }{r_{B} } )^{3} \alpha _{A} t_{1}^{2}=\frac{1}{2} (\frac{0.15}{0.2} )^{3} \alpha _{A} t_{1}^{2}

\alpha _{A} =8\pi (\frac{0.2}{0.15} )^{3} =59.57rad

w_{B,1} =\alpha _{B} t_{1}=(\frac{0.15}{0.2} )^{3} \alpha _{A} t_{1}=0.422\alpha _{A} t_{1}

The velocity at the contact point is equal to:

v=r_{A} w_{A} =0.15*(8\pi -\alpha _{A} t_{1})=1.2\pi -0.15\alpha _{A} t_{1}

v=r_{B} w_{B} =0.2*(0.422\alpha _{A} t_{1})=0.0844\alpha _{A} t_{1}

Matching both expressions:

1.2\pi -0.15\alpha _{A} t_{1}=0.0844\alpha _{A} t_{1}\\\alpha _{A} t_{1}=16.09rad/s

b) The time during which the disks slip is:

t_{1} =\frac{\alpha _{A} t_{1}^{2}}{\alpha _{A} t_{1}} =\frac{59.574}{16.09} =3.7s

a) The angular acceleration of each disk is

\alpha _{A}=\frac{\alpha _{A} t_{1}}{t_{1} } =\frac{16.09}{3.7} =4.35rad/s^{2} (clockwise)

\alpha _{B}=(\frac{0.15}{0.2} )^{3} *4.35=1.84rad/s^{2} (clockwise)

How do I figure out this
ahrayia [7]
The Atomic Number is equal to the amount of Protons and Electrons. To find the amount of Neutrons in an atom, you have to look at the Mass Number. The Mass Number is the SUM (_+_=_) of Protons and Neutrons in an atom. In this case, you will have to make up equations. For example: Argon. Argon's Mass Number is 40. You need to find the amount of Protons in the atom (18). Mass Number (40) - Protons (18) = Amount of Neutrons. 40-18=22.
Argon has 22 Neutrons, because Protons(18)+Neutrons(22)=Mass Number(40).

Hope I could help!

How does the​ long-run equilibrium for a monopolistically competitive market differ from the​ long-run equilibrium for a perfect
Katen [24]

Answer and Explanation:

The main difference between monopolistic competition and perfect competitive market are given bellow

Excess capacity : There is constantly an overabundance limit in monopolistic challenge and not in the ideal challenge. Over the long haul, superbly aggressive firms produce at the proficient scale,where as monopolistically focused firms produce beneath this level. Firms are said to have abundance limit under monopolistic challenge. As it were, a monopolistically focused firm, in contrast to a splendidly aggressive firm, could build the amount it delivers and lower the normal all out expense of generation.

Markup over marginal cost:   the another distinction between flawless challenge and monopolistic challenge is the connection among cost and minor expense. At an aggressive firm consistently cost equivalents negligible expense. Where as, in monopolistically aggressive firm, cost surpasses minimal expense becouse the firm consistently have some market control.
