<h2>When a mass on a spring that has been compressed 0.1 m has a restoring force of 20 N , then the value of spring constant (k) :- </h2><h2>200 N/m</h2>

Explanation:

Spring Constant :

According to Hooke's law, The force required to compress or extends spring is directly proportional to the distance it is compressed or stretched.

Given

x = -0.1 m

F  = 20 N

F - -kx

k  = -f/x

    = -20 / -0.1 = 200 N/m

The value of spring constant is 200 N/m.

An inventor claims to have developed a food freezer that, in steady-state conditions, requires a power input of 0.25 kW to extra
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

The inventors  claim is not real

a)  No the the freezer cannot operate in such conditions

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The  power input is  P_i  = 0.25 kW  =  0.25 *10^{3} \ W

      The  rate of heat transfer J  =  3050 J/s

       The temperature of the freezer content is T = 270 \ K

       The  ambient temperature is  T_a  =  293 \ K

Generally the coefficient of performance of a refrigerator at idea conditions is mathematically represented as

      COP  =  \frac{T }{Ta - T}

substituting values

     COP  =  \frac{270 }{293 - 270}

     COP  =11.7

Generally the coefficient of performance of a refrigerator at real conditions is mathematically represented as

       COP  =  \frac{J}{P_i}

substituting values

       COP  =  \frac{3050}{0.25 *10^{3}}

       COP  = 12.2

Now given that the COP  of an ideal refrigerator is  less that that of a real refrigerator then the claims of the inventor is rejected

This is because the there are loss in the real refrigerator cycle that are suppose to reduce the COP compared to an ideal refrigerator cycle where there no loss that will reduce the COP

The maximum speed of a mass m on an oscillating spring is vmax . what is the speed of the mass at the instant when the kinetic a
umka21 [38]
Let
A =  the amplitude of vibration
k =  the spring constant
m =  the mass of the object

The displacement at time, t, is of the form
x(t) = A cos(ωt)
where
ω =  the circular frequency.

The velocity is
v(t) = -ωA sin(ωt)

The maximum velocity occurs when the sin function is either 1 or -1.
Therefore
v_{max} = \omega A
Therefore
v(t) = -V_{max} sin(\omega t)

The KE (kinetic energy) is given by
KE = \frac{m}{2}v^{2} = \frac{m}{2} V_{max}^{2} sin^{2} (\omega t)

The PE (potential energy) is given by
PE = \frac{k}{2} x^{2} = \frac{k}{2} A^{2} cos^{2} (\omega t)

When the KE and PE are equal, then
v^{2} = \frac{k}{m} A^{2} cos^{2} (\omega t)

For the oscillating spring,
\omega ^{2} =  \frac{k}{m} \\ V_{max} = \omega A =  \sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} } A
Therefore
v^{2} =  \frac{k}{m}  \frac{m}{k} V_{max}^{2} cos^{2} ( \sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} t} ) \\ v = V_{max}  \,cos( \sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} t} )

Answer: v(t) = V_{max} cos( \sqrt{ \frac{k}{m} t} )

Why do satellites not fall to the Earth?
galben [10]

The satellite IS falling.  But it's also moving 'sideways'.
As it falls, the surface of the Earth also falls away, so
the satellite winds up going around.
