A small block with mass 0.0400 kg is moving in the xy-plane. The net force on the block is described by the potentialenergy func

tion U(x,y) = (6.00 J/m2 )x 2 - (3.75 J/m3 )y 3 . What is the magnitude of the acceleration (in m/s2 ) of the block when it is at the point x = 0.40 m, y = 0.56 m?

Answer:

A= 148.92  m/s²

Explanation:

Given that

U(x,y) = (6.00  )x²  - (3.75  )y ³

m= 0.04 kg

Now force in the x-direction

Fx= - dU/dx

U(x,y) = (6.00  )x²  - (3.75  )y ³

dU/dx= 12 x

When x=0.4 m

dU/dx= 12 x 0.4 = 4.8

So we can say that

Fx= - 4.8 N

From Newtons law

F= m a

- 4.8 = 0.04 x a

a = -120 m/s²

Acceleration in x direction ,a = -120 m/s²

In y -direction

F= - dU/dy

U(x,y) = (6.00  )x²  - (3.75  )y ³

dU/dy = 0 - 3.75 x 3 y²

When y = 0.56 m

dU/dy = - 3.75 x 3 x 0.56 x 0.56

dU/dy = - 3.52

So we can say that force in y -direction

F= 3.52 N

F= m a'

3.52 = 0.04 x a'

a'=88.2 m/s²

acceleration in y direction is 88.2 m/s²

The resultant acceleration

A=\sqrt{a^2+a'^2}

A=\sqrt{120^2+88.2^2}

A= 148.92  m/s²

Dave throws a 10 kg bowling ball straight up in the air. At the very tippy-top of its path, what is it's momentum?
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:Zero

Explanation:

Given

mass of ball m=10\ kg

If the ball is thrown upward then at maximum point velocity of ball is zero because ball is no longer able to move upward

Momentum(P) of a particle is given by

P=mass\times velocity

P=10\times 0

P=0

Therefore at the highest point momentum is zero .

Why can gases and liquids both transmit heat by convection?
Firlakuza [10]
Basically, the temperature is a result of the average kinetic energy of all the atoms comprising the solid/liquid/gas. In solid, these atoms can just vibrate in place, leaving them to only be able to conduct and radiate heat. However, as you probably know liquids and solids take the shape of their container because the bonds between atoms are loose enough to allow them to freely move around. Due to each individual atom having its own energy, and these atoms being free to move about the liquid/gas they collide with other atoms in the substance. These collisions result in a transfer of energy. Finally, lower energy atoms "sink" and higher energy atoms "rise" thus creating a "convection current".

If a steel containing 1.88 wt%C is cooled relatively slowly to room temperature, what is the expected weight fraction of pearlit
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The answer is %pearlite = 0.06%

Explanation:

according to the exercise we have that the percentage is 1.88% C, therefore, the percentage of perlite is equal to:

%pearlite = (B*C)/(A*C) = (2-1.88)/(2-0) = 0.06%

The percentage of cementite is equal to:

%cementite = (1.88-0)/(2-0) = 0.94%
