A brick of mass m = 0.21 kg is set against a spring with a spring constant of k1 = 690 N/m which has been compressed by a distan

ce of 0.1 m. Some distance in front of it, along a frictionless surface, is another spring with a spring constant of k2 = 489 N/m.
(A) How far d2, in meters, will the second spring compress when the block runs into it?
(B) How fast v, in meters per second, will the block be moving when it strikes the second spring?
(C) Now assume friction is present on the surface in between the ends of the springs at their equilibrium lengths, and the coefficient of kinetic friction is ?k = 0.5. If the distance between the springs is x = 1 m, how far d2, in meters, will the second spring now compress?

Answer:

Part a)

x = 0.12 m

Part b)

v = 5.73 m/s

Part c)

x = 0.11 m

Explanation:

Part a)

As per energy conservation we can say

Energy stored in spring 1 = energy stored in spring 2

\frac{1}{2}k_1x_1^2 = \frac{1}{2}k_2x_2^2

now we have

k_1 = 690 N/m

x_1 = 0.1 m

k_2 = 489 N/m

x_2 = ?

now from above equation

(690)(0.1^2) = 489(x^2)

x = 0.12 m

Part b)

To find the speed of the block we can say that its kinetic energy is gained due to spring energy

so we have

\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

now we have

\frac{1}{2}(690)(0.1^2) = \frac{1}{2}(0.21)v^2

v = 5.73 m/s

Part c)

When friction is present between two springs then we have energy loss due to friction force

so we have

\frac{1}{2}k_1x_1^2 - \mu mgd = \frac{1}{2}k_2x_2^2

now we have

\frac{1}{2}(690)(0.1)^2 - (0.2)(0.21)(9.8)(1) = \frac{1}{2}(489) x^2

3.45 - 0.4116 = 244.5 x^2

x = 0.11 m

How much work is done (by a battery, generator, or some other source of potential difference) in moving Avogadro's number of ele
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

W = 1.5 x 10⁶ J = 1.5 MJ

Explanation:

First, we calculate the potential difference between the given 2 points. So, we have:

V₁ = Electric Potential at Initial Position = 6.7 V

V₂ = Electric Potential at Final Position = - 8.9 V

Therefore,

ΔV = Potential Difference = V₂ - V₁ = -8.9 V - 6.7 V = - 15.6 V

Since, we use magnitude in calculation only. Therefore,

ΔV = 15.6 V

Now, we calculate total charge:

Total Charge = q = (No. of Electrons)(Charge on 1 Electron)

where,

No. of Electrons = Avagadro's No. = 6.022 x 10²³

Charge on 1 electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C

Therefore,

q = (6.022 x 10²³)(1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C)

q = 96352 C

Now, from the definition of potential difference, we know that it is equal to the worked done on a unit charge moving it between the two points of different potentials:

ΔV = W/q

W = (ΔV )(q)

where,

W = work done = ?

W = (15.6 V)(96352 C)

<u>W = 1.5 x 10⁶ J = 1.5 MJ</u>

A 36.0 kg box initially at rest is pushed 5.00 m along a rough, horizontal floor with a constant applied horizontal force of 130
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

(a) W = 650J

(b) Wf = 529.2J

(c) W = 0J

(d) W = 0J

(e) ΔK = 120.8J

(f) v2 = 2.58 m/s

Explanation:

(a) In order to find the work done by the applied force you use the following formula:

W=Fd      (1)

F: applied force = 130N

d: distance = 5.0m

W=(130N)(5.0m)=650J

The work done by the applied force is 650J

(b) The increase in the internal energy of the box-floor system is given by the work done of the friction force, which is calculated as follow:

W_f=F_fd=\mu Mgd       (2)

μ: coefficient of friction = 0.300

M: mass of the box = 36.0kg

g: gravitational constant = 9.8 m/s^2

W_f=(0.300)(36.0kg)(9.8m/s^2)(5.0m)=529.2J

The increase in the internal energy is 529.2J

(c) The normal force does not make work on the box because the normal force is perpendicular to the motion of the box.

W = 0J

(d) The same for the work done by the normal force. The work done by the gravitational force is zero because the motion of the box is perpendicular o the direction of the gravitational force.

(e) The change in the kinetic energy is given by the net work on the box. You use the following formula:

\Delta K=W_T         (3)

You calculate the total work:

W_T=Fd-F_fd=(F-F_f)d     (4)

F: applied force = 130N

Ff: friction force

d: distance = 5.00m

The friction force is:

F_f=(0.300)(36.0kg)(9.8m/s^2)=105.84N

Next, you replace the values of all parameters in the equation (4):

W_T=(130N-105.84N)(5.00m)=120.80J

\Delta K=120.80J

The change in the kinetic energy of the box is 120.8J

(e) The final speed of the box is calculated by using the equation (3):

W_T=\frac{1}{2}M(v_2^2-v_1^2)       (5)

v2: final speed of the box

v1: initial speed of the box = 0 m/s

You solve the equation (5) for v2:

v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{2W_T}{M}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(120.8J)}{36.0kg}}=2.58\frac{m}{s}

The final speed of the box is 2.58m/s

The force on a bullet that results from summing all of the forces on that bullet is known as the _____ on the bullet.
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

The force on a bullet that results from summing all of the forces on that bullet is known as the net force on the bullet.

Explanation:

Net force represents the overall force or the total force acting on an object.

Here, the object is bullet and the net force acting on it is the addition of all the forces acting on the bullet.
