A block with mass 0.50 kg is forced against a horizontal spring of negligible mass, compressing the spring a distance of 0.20 m

(Fig. P7.39). When released, the block moves on a horizontal tabletop for 1.00 m before coming to rest. The force constant k is 100 N>m. What is the coefficient of kinetic friction mk between the block and the tabletop?

Answer:

μk = 0.408

Explanation:

Given:

m=0.50 Kg,

Let compressed distance x = 0.20 m, and

stretched distance after releasing y = 1.00 m

K = 100 N/M

Sol:

Law of conservation of energy

Energy dissipation due to friction = P.E stores in the spring

Ff * y = 1/2 K x ²   (Ff = μk Fn)  And (Fn = mg) so

μk mgy  =   1/2 K x ²

μk = 1/2 K x ² /mgy   Putting values

μk = (1/2 ) (100 N/M) (0.20 m)² / (0.50 Kg x 9.8 m/s² x 1 m)

μk = 0.408

<h2>Answer:</h2>

0.4

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

(i) Since the mass is forced against the spring, an elastic energy (E_{E}) due to the compression of the spring by the force is produced and is given according to Hooke's law by;

E_{E} = \frac{1}{2} k c²            --------------------------------(i)

Where;

k = spring's constant

c = compression caused on the spring.

<em>From the question;</em>

k = 100N/m

c = 0.20m

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) as follows;</em>

E_{E} = \frac{1}{2} x 100 x 0.20²

E_{E} = 2J

(ii) Now, when the mass is released, it causes the block to move some distance until it stops thereby doing some work within that distance. This means that the elastic energy is converted to workdone. i.e

E_{E} = W          ------------(ii)

The work done (W) is given by the product of the net force(F) on the block and the distance covered(s). i.e

W = F x s           -----------------(iii)

But, the only force acting on the body as it moves is the frictional force (F_{R}) acting to oppose its motion. i.e

F = F_{R}

Where;

F_{R} = μN      [μ = coefficient of kinetic friction, N = mg = normal reaction between the block and the tabletop, m = mass of the block, g = gravity]

F_{R} = μ x mg

<em>Substitute F = </em>F_{R}<em> = μ x mg into equation (iii) as follows;</em>

W = μ x mg x s             ----------------(iv)

<em>Now substitute the value of W into equation (ii) as follows;</em>

E_{E} = μ x mg x s                ------------------(v)

Where;

E_{E} = 2 J               [as calculated above]

m = 0.50 kg

s = distance moved by block = 1.00m

g = 10m/s²            [a known constant]

<em>Substitute these values into equation (v) as follows;</em>

2 = μ x 0.50 x 10 x 1

2 = 5μ

μ = 2 / 5

μ = 0.4

Therefore, the coefficient of kinetic friction between the block and the tabletop is 0.4

Ajoba and Prav drive to work. Ajoba drives 45 miles in 2.5 hours. Prav drives 74 km in 1 hour 15 min. Work out the difference be
Serggg [28]

Explanation:

We have,

Ajoba and Prav drive to work. Ajoba drives 45 miles in 2.5 hours. Prav drives 74 km in 1 hour 15 min.

1 mile = 1.6 km

45 miles = 72.42 km

74 miles = 119.0 km

1 hour 15 min means 1.25 hours

Average speed of Ajoba is :

v_1=\dfrac{72.42 }{2.5}=28.96\ km/h

Average speed of Prav,

v_2=\dfrac{119}{1.25}=95.2\ km/h

Difference in average speed of Ajoba and Prav is :

v=v_2-v_1\\\\v=v_2-v_1\\\\v=95.2-28.96\\\\v=66.24\ km/h

So, the difference in average speed of Ajoba and Prav is 66.24 km/h.

A firecracker breaks up into two pieces , one has a mass of 200 g and files off along the x –axis with a speed of 82.0 m/s and t
Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

A) 21.2 kg.m/s at 39.5 degrees from the x-axis

Explanation:

Mass of the smaller piece = 200g = 200/1000 = 0.2 kg

Mass of the bigger piece = 300g = 300/1000 = 0.3 kg

Velocity of the small piece = 82 m/s

Velocity of the bigger piece = 45 m/s

Final momentum of smaller piece = 0.2 × 82 = 16.4 kg.m/s

Final momentum of bigger piece = 0.3 × 45 = 13.5 kg.m/s

since they acted at 90oc to each other (x and y axis) and also momentum is vector quantity; then we can use Pythagoras theorems

Resultant momentum² = 16.4² + 13.5² = 451.21

Resultant momentum = √451.21 = 21.2 kg.m/s at angle 39.5 degrees to the x-axis  ( tan^-1 (13.5 / 16.4)
