To solve this problem we will start by defining the length of the shortest stick as 'x'. And the magnitude of the longest stick, according to the statement as

Both cover a magnitude of 8.32 ft, therefore

Now solving for x we have,





Therefore the shorter stick is 2.695ft long.
Answer:
0.833
Explanation:
Power = energy / time
Power = force × distance / time
Power = force × velocity
P = (850 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (1.00 m/s)
P = 8330 W
P = 8.33 kW
The efficiency of the motor is therefore:
e = 8.33 kW / 10.0 kW
e = 0.833
Answer:
The maximum speed of sonic at the bottom of the hill is equal to 19.85m/s and the spring constant of the spring is equal to (497.4xmass of sonic) N/m
Energy approach has been used to sole the problem.
The points of interest for the analysis of the problem are point 1 the top of the hill and point 2 the bottom of the hill just before hitting the spring
The maximum velocity of sonic is independent of the his mass or the geometry. It is only depends on the vertical distance involved
Explanation:
The step by step solution to the problem can be found in the attachment below. The principle of energy conservation has been applied to solve the problem. This means that if energy disappears in one form it will appear in another.
As in this problem, the potential and kinetic energy at the top of the hill were converted to only kinetic energy at the bottom of the hill. This kinetic energy too got converted into elastic potential energy .
x = compression of the spring = 0.89
The planetary temperature energy balance is obtained by radiating back the absorbed radiation energy from outer-space, by the planet and thus acquiring thermal equilibrium.
What is the process of attaining thermal equilibrium by Earth?
The Stefan-Boltzmann law states that the more the temperature a planet has, the more it will radiate out to reach thermal equilibrium.
We know that outer space contains large masses of radiative energy freely distributed in its vast expanse. A small fraction of this energy is absorbed by the Earth through the atmosphere, surface land, clouds etc.
Now, radiative balance is achieved when a planet's surface continuously warms up until it reaches its peak at which point the same amount of absorbed energy can then be radiated back to space. The relative amount of energy radiated back by a planet is dependent upon the size of the planet.
A colder planet relatively absorbs lower amount of radiation energy from space. In some time, as the planet heats up enough, the energy is radiated back to the space attaining thermal equilibrium.
