Answer:

625000 N/ m

Explanation:

m= 20 kg

v= 30 m/s

x= 12 cm

k = ?

Here when the mass when hits at spring its speed is

Vi= 30 m/s

Finally it comes to rest after compressing for 12 cm

i-e Vf = 0 m/s

Distance= S= 12 cm = 0.12 m

using

2aS= Vf2 - Vi2

==> 2a ×0.12 = o- 30 × 30

==> a = 900 ÷ 0.24 = 3750 m/sec2

Now we know;

F = ma

F= -Kx

==> ma= -kx

==> 20 × 3750 = -K × 0.12

==> k = 625000 N/ m

If the distance d (in meters) traveled by an object in time t (in seconds) is given by the formula d=a+bt2, the si units of a an
ss7ja [257]
Distance , d = a+bt^2

The unit of d is in meter and t is in seconds.

So the unit of a a must be meter.

Now we have unit of bt^2 is meter.

So unit of b*second^2 = meter

Unit of b = meter/second^2

So unit of a = m and unit of b = m/s^2.

tickets at a museum cost 17 dollars each for a field trip, the museum offers a 4 doller discount on each ticket. How much will t
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

$416 sounds like the best answer.

Explanation:

The tickets started off at $17, but a $4 discount for EACH ticket bought.

so 17-4 is 13

now tickets cost $13 each.

Multiply it by 32.

13x32=416

A simple pendulum consists of a mass m (the "bob") hanging on the end of a thin string of length l and negligible mass. The bob
svetlana [45]

Answer:

The pendulum frequency  is (c) the same, or very close to it

Explanation:

The simple pendulum corresponds to a simple harmonic movement, to reach this approximation in the expression of the force the sine of the angle (θ) approaches an angle value, this is only true for small angles, generally less than 15º

Sine (15th) = 0.2588

The angle in radians is 15º π / 180º = 0.26180.2588 / 0.2618

The difference between these two values ​​is less than 1.2%

for smaller angle the difference is reduced more

Therefore, the period for both the 5º and 10º angles is almost the same

Two identical stones are thrown from the top of a tall building. Stone 1 is thrown vertically downward with an initial speed v,
Molodets [167]

If the resistance of the Air is ignored, we can use the theory given by Galileo in which he warned that the thermal velocity of a body in free fall was given by

v= \frac{1}{2}gt

Where

g = Gravitational acceleration

t = time

As we can see the speed of objects in free fall is indifferent to the position that is launched (as long as the resistance of the air is ignored) or its mass.

Both bodies will end with the same thermal speed.
