Answer:

E. Zero Maximum

Explanation:

At the point of maximum displacement, the speed is zero while the restoring force is maximum. In fact:

- The restoring force is given by F=kx, where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement - at the point of maximum displacement, x is maximum, so F is maximum as well

- the total energy of the system is sum of kinetic energy and elastic potential energy:

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

where m is the mass of the system and v is the speed. Since E (the total energy) is constant due to the law of conservation of energy, we have that when K increases, U decreases, and viceversa. As a result, when x increases, v decreases, and viceversa. At the point of maximum displacement, x is maximum, so v will have its minimum value (which is zero, since the system is changing direction of motion).

Which two surfaces have the lowest coefficient of friction
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

As an example, ice on steel has a low coefficient of friction – the two materials slide past each other easily – while rubber on pavement has a high coefficient of friction – the materials do not slide past each other easily. The coefficients of friction ranges from near 0 to greater than 1.

57. Estimate Potential Energy A boulder with a
Oksanka [162]

Answer: 4.9 x 10^6 joules

Explanation:

Given that:

mass of boulder (m) = 2,500 kg

Height of ledge above canyon floor (h) = 200 m

Gravita-tional potential energy of the boulder (GPE) = ?

Since potential energy is the energy possessed by a body at rest, and it depends on the mass of the object (m), gravitational acceleration (g), and height (h).

GPE = mgh

GPE = 2500kg x 9.8m/s2 x 200m

GPE = 4900000J

Place result in standard form

GPE = 4.9 x 10^6J

Thus, the gravita-tional potential energy of the boulder-Earth system relative to the canyon floor is 4.9 x 10^6 joules
