A metal block of mass 3 kg is falling downward and has velocity of 0.44 m/s when it is 0.8 m above the floor. It strikes the top

of a relaxed vertical spring of length 0.4 m. The spring constant is 2000 N/m. After striking the spring, the block rebounds. What is the maximum height above the floor that the block reaches after the impact

Answer:

y_{max} = 0.829\,m

Explanation:

Let assume that one end of the spring is attached to the ground. The speed of the metal block when hits the relaxed vertical spring is:

v = \sqrt{(0.8\,\frac{m}{s})^{2} + 2\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (0.4\,m)}

v = 2.913\,\frac{m}{s}

The maximum compression of the spring is calculated by using the Principle of Energy Conservation:

(3\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})\cdot (0.4\,m) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot (3\,kg)\cdot (2.913\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2} = (3\,kg) \cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}})\cdot (0.4\,m-\Delta s) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot (2000\,\frac{N}{m})\cdot (\Delta s) ^{2}

After some algebraic handling, a second-order polynomial is formed:

12.728\,J = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (2000\,\frac{N}{m} )\cdot (\Delta s)^{2} - (3\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot \Delta s

1000\cdot (\Delta s)^{2}-29.421\cdot \Delta s - 12.728 = 0

The roots of the polynomial are, respectively:

\Delta s_{1} \approx 0.128\,m

\Delta s_{2} \approx -0.099\,m

The first root is the only solution that is physically reasonable. Then, the elongation of the spring is:

\Delta s \approx 0.128\,m

The maximum height that the block reaches after rebound is:

(3\,kg) \cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (0.4\,m-\Delta s) + \frac{1}{2}\cdot (2000\,\frac{N}{m})\cdot (\Delta s)^{2} = (3\,kg)\cdot (9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot y_{max}

y_{max} = 0.829\,m

Answer:

0.81 m

Explanation:

In all moment, the total energy is constant:

Energy of sistem = kinetics energy + potencial energy = CONSTANT

So, it doesn't matter what happens when the block hit the spring, what matters are the (1) and (2) states:

(1): metal block to 0.8 m above the floor

(2): metal block above the floor, with zero velocity ( how high, is the X)

<u>Then:</u>

<u />E_{kb1} + E_{gb1}  = E_{kb2} + E_{gs2}<u />

<u />E_{kb1} + E_{gb1}  = 0 + E_{gs2}<u />

<u />\frac{1}{2}*m*V_{b1} ^{2}   + m*g*H_{b1}  = m*g*H_{b2}<u />

<u />H_{b2}  =  \frac{V_{b1} ^{2} }{2g}  + H_{b1}<u />

<u>Replacing data:</u>

<u />H_{b2}  =  \frac{0.44^{2} }{2*9.81}  + 0.8<u />

<u />H_{b2}  =  \frac{0.44^{2} }{2*9.81}  + 0.4<u />

HB2 ≈ 0.81 m

<u />

How has the farming industry been affected by the use of fossil fuels?
Mashutka [201]

Fossil fuels have led to an increase in food costs.

Explanation:

Buried organic material over million of years form combustible geologic deposits of organic materials called fossil fuels that can be converted crude oil, natural gas, or coal.

Fossil fuel are currently used as a source of energy in machine and equipment applied in the farming industry. Mechanization has been made possible due to this type of fuel availability thus larger farms have been prepared for cultivation.In addition, other processes such as planting,weeding and harvesting are currently performed by farming machines which are propelled by fossil energy. So in general, fossil fuels in the farming industry has led to increase in amount of crop harvested because more farms are under cultivation and farming process is now mechanized. However, due to use of machines and energy, the production cost has increased, thus to cover for this increased cost, the prices for food products increases, making the cost of food commodities to rise.

If five joules were required to move a crate in 3.7 seconds, what power was applied?
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 1.35 Watts

Explanation:

Data

Work = W = 5 J

time = t = 3.7 s

Power = P = ?

Formula

Power is a rate in which work is done or energy is transferred over time

P = \frac{W}{t}

Substitution

P = \frac{5}{3.7}

Result

P = 1.35 W
