Answer:
Explanation:
The energy stored in a spring
= 1/2 k x²
where k is spring constant and x is extension in the spring.
= .5 x 500 x .05²
= .625 J
Work done by friction = energy dissipated
= - μmg x d , μ is coefficient of friction , m is mass , d is displacement
= - .35 x 2.8 x 9.8 x .05
= - .48 J
energy of the mass when it reaches equilibrium position
= .625 - .48
= .145 J
If v be its velocity at that time
1/2 m v ² = .145
.5 x 2.8 x v² = .145
v² = .10357
v = .32 m /s
32 cm /s
Remember that moment before collision is equal to the moment after collision.

Plugging in our values,

Answer:
Potassium is more reactive
Explanation:
Answer:
(a)

(b)
1120 N
Explanation:
Change in velocity,
is given by subtracting the initial velocity from the final velocity and expressed as 
Where v represent the velocity and subscripts f and i represent final and initial respectively. Since the ball finally comes to rest, its final velocity is zero. Substituting 0 for final velocity and the given figure of 8 m/s for initial velocity then the change in velocity is given by

To find
then we substitute 7 kg for m and -8 m/s for
therefore 
(b)
The impact force, F is given as the product of mass and acceleration. Here, acceleration is given by dividing the change in velocity by time ie

Substituting t with 0.05 s then 
Since F=ma then substituting m with 7 Kg we get that F=7*-160=-1120 N
Therefore, the impact force is equivalent to 1120 N
Answer:
Mass and thus force depends on the reference frame chosen
Explanation:
This can be explained as Newton's law of gravity provides action which are instantaneous at a distance and involves the evaluation of all the quantities at present time or at the instant they occur.
If the body undergoes a change in its mass distribution there will be an immediate change in its gravitational force without any lag.
Now, if we talk about special relativity, it would be absurd to say that an information can travel faster than light. The effect is in synchronization with the cause in one reference frame where the effect occurs after the cause for some observer in some other reference frame.
In order to observe Newton's law of gravity all the observer's in different reference frames must observe the same phenomena which could only be possible if time were absolute and in special relativity, time is not absolute.
Therefore, Newton's law of gravity was inconsistent with the Einstein's Special Relativity.
