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

the magnitude of the electrical force acting between a +2.4x10-8c charge and 1+1.8x10-6 charge that are separated by 1.008m is
Temka [501]

Answer:

3.83×10¯⁴ N

Explanation:

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

Charge 1 (q₁) = +2.4x10¯⁸ C

Charge 2 (q₂) = +1.8x10¯⁶ C

Distance apart (r) = 1.008 m

Electrical constant (K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Force (F) =?

The magnitude of the electrical force acting between the two charges can be obtained as follow:

F = Kq₁q₂ / r²

F = 9×10⁹ × 2.4x10¯⁸ × 1.8x10¯⁶ / (1.008)²

F = 0.0003888 / 1.016064

F = 3.83×10¯⁴ N

Thus the magnitude of the electrical force acting between the two charges is 3.83×10¯⁴ N

A 2500-N net force acting on a 880-kg car accelerates it at a rate of ______ m/s/s
Bond [772]

Answer:

a = 2.84 m/s²

Explanation:

Given that,

Net force, F = 2500 N

Mass of the car, m = 880 kg

We need to find the acceleration of the car. Net force is given by :

F = ma

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{2500\ N}{880\ m/s^2}\\\\a=2.84\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the car is 2.84 m/s².
