A 31 kg crate full of very cute kittens is placed on an incline that is 17° below the horizontal. The crate is connected to a sp

ring that is anchored to a vertical wall, such that the spring is parallel to the surface of the incline.
a. If the crate was connected to the spring at equilibrium length, and then allowed to stretch the spring until the crate comes to rest, determine the spring constant. Assume that the incline is frictionless and that the change in length of the spring is 2.13 m.
b. If there is friction between the incline and the crate, would the spring stretch more, or less than if the incline is frictionless? You must use concepts pertaining to work and energy to receive full credit.

Answer:

Explanation:

Change in length of spring = 2.13 m

Component of weight acting on spring = mg sinθ

so

mg sinθ = k x where k is spring constant and x is total stretch due to force on the spring.

Here x = 2.13

mg sin17 = k x 2.13

31 x 9.8 sin17 = k x 2.13

k = 41.7 N/m

b ) In case surface had friction , spring would have stretched by less distance .

It is so because , the work done by gravity in stretching down is stored as potential energy in  spring . In case of dissipative force like friction , it also takes up some energy in the form of heat etc  so spring stretches less.

un tanque de gasolina de 40 litros fue llenado por la noche, cuando la temperatura era de 68 grados farenheit. Al dia siguiente
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Volume of gasoline that expands and spills out is 1.33 ltr

Explanation:

As we know that when temperature of the liquid is increased then its volume will expand and it is given as

\Delta V = V_o\gamma \Delta T

here we know that

V_o = 40 Ltr

volume expansion coefficient of the gasoline is given as

\gamma = 950 × 10^{–6}

change in temperature is given as

\Delta T = (131 - 68) \times \frac{5}{9}

\Delta T = 35 ^oC

Now we have

\Delta V = 40(950 \times 10^{-6})(35)

\Delta V = 1.33 Ltr

Q1: An object with a charge of 1.2 C is located 4.5 m away from a second object that has a charge of 0.36 C. Find the electrical
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

a) F= 0,19  [N]   according to problem statement

b) F = 0,19*10⁹ [N]  using the right value of K

Explanation:

The force between two electric charges is according to Coulomb´s law is:

F = K * q₁*q₂ / d²    where  q₁  and q₂ are the charges on body one and body 2 respectively, d is the distance between the two bodies and K is a constant  K = 8,988100*10⁹ N.m²/C². The problem establishes to use        K = 8,988100 N.m²/C².

NOTE: To value of is :  K = 8,988100*10⁹ N.m²/C². I am going to solve the problem using K = 8,988100 N.m²/C² if that information was an error, all we need to get the right answer is multiply the result by 10⁹

Then:

F = 8,988100 * 1,2* 0,36 / (4,5)²     [ N*m²/C² ] * [ C*C*/m²]

F = 3,882859/ 20,25  [N]

F= 0,19  [N]

The force is of repulsion since the two charges are positive and in the direction of the straight line which passes through the centers of the bodies
