Answer:

The displacement of the same mass on the same spring on the Moon is 0.05 m.

Explanation:

Given;

mass suspended from one end of the spring, m = 0.500 kg

displacement on the spring on Earth, x = 0.3 m

Apply Newton's second law of motion;

F = ma = mg

where;

m is mass on the spring

g is acceleration due to gravity

Also, apply Hook's law;

F = Kx

where;

K is force constant

x is extension or diplacement of the spring

Combine the two equations from the two laws;

mg = kx

when the spring in on Earth;

0.5 x 9.8 = 0.3k

4.9 = 0.3k

k = 4.9 / 0.3

k = 16.333 N/m

when the spring is on moon;

mg = kx

mass is the same = 0.5 kg

acceleration due to gravity on moon = ¹/₆ that of Earth =  ¹/₆  x 9.8 m/s²

0.5 (¹/₆  x 9.8) = 16.333 x

0.8167 = 16.333 x

x = 0.8167 / 16.333

x = 0.05 m

Therefore, the displacement of the same mass on the same spring on the Moon is 0.05 m.

Si el coeficiente de fricción cinética entre los neumáticos y el pavimento seco es de 0.80. ¿Cuál es la distancia mínima para de
vovangra [49]

Answer: 52.9 metros.

Explanation:

Podemos escribir la fuerza de fricción cinética como

F = μ*N

donde N es la fuerza normal entre el coche y el suelo, cuya magnitud es igual al peso en esta situación.

F = μ*m*g

donde m es la masa del coche y g es 9.8m/s^2

y sabemos que μ = 0.8

Por la segunda ley de Newton, sabemos que:

F = m*a

fuerza es igual a masa por aceleración.

a = F/m

entonces la aceleración causada por la fuerza de rozamiento es:

F = 0.8*m*g

a = F/m = (0.8*m*g)/m = 0.8*g.

Entonces ya encontramos la aceleración, hay que recordar que esta aceleración es en sentido opuesto a la sentido de movimiento, entonces podemos escribir la aceleración como:

a(t) = -0.8*g

Para la velocidad, podemos integrar sobre el tiempo para obtener.

v(t) = -0.8*g*t + v0

donde v0 es la velocidad inicial del auto = 28.7m/s

v(t) = -0.8*g*t + 28.8m/s

Ahora podemos encontrar el tiempo necesario para que la velocidad del coche sea cero, en ese momento, como deja de moverse, ya no tendremos rozamiento cinético, entonces no habrá aceleración y el coche se detendrá completamente.

v(t) = 0m/s = -0.8*9.8m/s^2*t + 28.8m/s

7.84m/s^2*t = 28.8m/s

                 t   = (28.8m/s)/(7.84m/s^2) = 3.63 segundos.

Ahora vamos a la ecuación de movimiento, donde asumimos que la posición inicial del coche es 0m, así que no tendremos constante de integración.

p(t) = -(1/2)*(0.8*9.8m/s^2)*t^2 + 28.8m/s*t

Ahora podemos evaluar la posición en t = 3.63 segundos, y esto nos dara la distancia que el coche se movio mientras frenaba.

p(3.63s) = -(1/2)*(0.8*9.8m/s^2)*(3.63s)^2 + 28.8m/s*(3.63s) = 52.9 metros.
