A mass resting on a horizontal, frictionless surface is attached to one end of a spring; the other end is fixed to a wall. It ta

kes 3.2 J of work to compress the spring by 0.11 m . If the spring is compressed, and the mass is released from rest, it experiences a maximum acceleration of 12 m/s2. Find the value of the spring constant and (b) the mass?

Answer:

a).K=528.92 \frac{N}{m}

b).m=4.84kg

Explanation:

a).

The work of the spring is find by the formula:

w_s =\frac{1}{2}*k*x^2

So knowing the work can find the constant K'

3.2J =\frac{1}{2}*k*(0.11m)^2

Solve for K'

K=\frac{2*W_s}{x^2}=\frac{2*3.2J}{0.11m^2}

K=528.92 \frac{N}{m}

b).

The force of the spring realice a motion so using the force and knowing the accelerations can find the mass

F=m*a

m=\frac{F}{a}=\frac{K*x}{a}

m=\frac{528.9*0.11m}{12m/s^2}

m=4.84kg

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

The gravity arrow for each body rotates, always pointing toward the other body. Both arrows grow longer when the bodies come closer to one another and shorter when they move farther apart. This change shows that the gravitational force is stronger the closer together the bodies are.

Phantasy [73]

Answer:

It will cause kinetic energy to increase.

Explanation:

Given that Speed and Motion you went from the starting line to the finish line at different rates.

If you repeated the activity while carrying weights but keeping your times the same, the weight carried will add up to the mass of the body.

And since Kinetic energy K.E = 1/2mv^2

Increase in the mass of the body will definitely make the kinetic energy of the body to increase.

Since the time is the same, that means the speed V is the same.

Weight W = mg

m = W/g

The new kinetic energy will be:

K.E = 1/2(M + m)v^2

This means that there will be increase in kinetic energy.

A mercury thermometer has a glass bulb of interior volume 0.100 cm3 at 10°c. the glass capillary 10) tube above the bulb has an
Nadya [2.5K]
Initial volume of mercury is
V = 0.1 cm³

The temperature rise is 35 - 5 = 30 ⁰C = 30 ⁰K.

Because the coefficient of volume expansion is 1.8x10⁻⁴ 1/K, the change in volume of the mercury is 
ΔV = (1.8x10⁻⁴ 1/K)*(30 ⁰K)(0.1 cm³) = 5.4x10⁻⁴ cm³

The cross sectional area of the tube is
A = 0.012 mm² = (0.012x10⁻² cm²).
Therefore the rise of mercury in the tube is
h = ΔV/A
   = (5.4x10⁻⁴ cm³)/(0.012x10⁻² cm²)
   = 4.5 cm

Answer: 4.5 cm

Energy is to be stored in a flywheel in the shape of a uniform solid disk with a radius of R = 1.22 m and a mass of 67.0 kg . To
eduard

Answer: 71.7 KJ

Explanation:

The rotational kinetic energy of a rotating body can be written as follows:

Krot = ½ I ω2

Now, any point on the rim of the flywheel, is acted by a centripetal force, according to Newton’s 2nd Law, as follows:

Fc = m. ac

It can be showed that the centripetal acceleration, is related with the angular velocity and the radius, as follows:

ac =  ω2 r

We know that this acceleration has a limit value, so , we can take this limit to obtain a maximum value for the angular velocity also.

As the flywheel is a solid disk, the rotational inertia I is just ½ m r2.

Replacing in the expression for the Krot, we have:

Krot= ½ (1/2 mr2.ac/r) = ¼ mr ac = ¼ 67.0 Kg. 1.22 m . 3,510 m/s2 = 71. 7 KJ
