Work done = force * distance that is move in direction of force

workdone = 50000N * 400m
= 2 * 10^7 J
since each student contributes 200kJ of work

no. of students = 2 * 10^7 J / 2000 * 10^3 J
= 10

A mass is oscillating with amplitude A at the end of a spring.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

A) x=\pm \frac{A}{2\sqrt{2}}

The total energy of the system is equal to the maximum elastic potential energy, that is achieved when the displacement is equal to the amplitude (x=A):

E=\frac{1}{2}kA^2 (1)

where k is the spring constant.

The total energy, which is conserved, at any other point of the motion is the sum of elastic potential energy and kinetic energy:

E=U+K=\frac{1}{2}kx^2+\frac{1}{2}mv^2 (2)

where x is the displacement, m the mass, and v the speed.

We want to know the displacement x at which the elastic potential energy is 1/3 of the kinetic energy:

U=\frac{1}{3}K

Using (2) we can rewrite this as

U=\frac{1}{3}(E-U)=\frac{1}{3}E-\frac{1}{3}U\\U=\frac{E}{4}

And using (1), we find

U=\frac{E}{4}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}kA^2}{4}=\frac{1}{8}kA^2

Substituting U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2 into the last equation, we find the value of x:

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{8}kA^2\\x=\pm \frac{A}{2\sqrt{2}}

B) x=\pm \frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}A

In this case, the kinetic energy is 1/10 of the total energy:

K=\frac{1}{10}E

Since we have

K=E-U

we can write

E-U=\frac{1}{10}E\\U=\frac{9}{10}E

And so we find:

\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{9}{10}(\frac{1}{2}kA^2)=\frac{9}{20}kA^2\\x^2 = \frac{9}{10}A^2\\x=\pm \frac{3}{\sqrt{10}}A

How are energy time and power related physics?
olganol [36]
Power is the rate of energy. Mathematically, it is

Power (p) = Energy(E) / Time(t)

Hope this helps!

In a drill during basketball practice, a player runs the length of the 30-meter court and back. The player does this three times
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

0 m/s

Explanation:

Average velocity of an object is given by the net displacement divided by time taken. Displacement is equal to the shortest path covered by the object.

In this problem, a player runs the length of the 30-meter court and back. The player does this three times in 60 seconds.

As the player runs the court and returns to the original point. It would mean that the shortest path covered is 0.

Average velocity = displacement/time

v=0/30

v = 0 m/s

Hence, the correct option is (1).

Yamin is running 50 feet of No. 14 wire (with a cross section of 4,110 cmils) to a load that draws current of 11 amps. What appr
castortr0y [4]

Resistance per 1000 feet for gauge 14 wire is given as

R = 2.525 ohm

now if wire is of length 50 feet only then the resistance is given as

R = \frac{2.525}{1000}\times 50

R = 0.126 ohm

now if 11 A current flows through the wire then the voltage drop is given by ohm's law

V = iR

V = 11 \times 0.126

V = 1.4 Volts

so most appropriate answer in given options is

A. 1.8 Volts
