The Gravitationa potential energy of the mass (PEG) is given by:
where
m is the mass
g is the gravitational acceleration
h is the heigth of the mass above the reference level (the ground)
In this problem,
and
, therefore the gravitational potential energy of the mass is:
Answer:
The initial speed of the block is 1.09 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
mass of block, m = 1.7 kg
force constant of the spring, k = 955 N/m
compression of the spring, x = 4.6 cm = 0.046 m
From principle of conservation of energy
kinetic energy of the block = elastic potential energy of the spring
¹/₂mv² = ¹/₂kx²
mv² = kx²
where;
v is the initial speed of the block
x is the compression of the spring
Therefore, the initial speed of the block is 1.09 m/s
In liquids, molecules particles are close together but move in random directions.
In solids, they are closely packed together and they vibrate a little.
In gases, they love around really quickly and are farther apart (even more than liquids).
F=ma
So a=F/m
if acceleration is zero, resultant force is also zero.
Answer:
They typically "want" 2, so the answer is C.
