A certain spring stores 10.0J of potential energy when it isstretched by 2.00cm from its equilibrium position.How much potential

energy would the spring store if it werestretched an additional 2.00cm?How much potential energy would it store if it were compressedby 2.00cm from its equilibrium position?How far from the equilibrium position would you have tostretch the string to store 20.0J of potential energy?What is the force constant of this spring?

Answer:

Answered

Explanation:

x= 0.02 m

E_p= 10.0 J

E_p= 0.5kx^2

10= 0.5k(0.02)^2

solving we get

K= 50.0 N/m

Now

E'_p= 0.5kx'^2

E'_p= 0.5×50×(0.04)^2

E'_p=40 J

b) potential energy is a scalar quantity and it only depends magnitude and not direction so it will remain same in compression and expansion both

c) 20 J = 0.5×50,000×x^2

solving

x= 0.028 m

d) k is 50.0 N/m  from above calculation

Tectonic plates move ________. A. about a kilometer per year B. at different speeds C. about one yard per year D. at the same sp
Alona [7]

Answer:

B. at different speeds.

Explanation:

Tectonic plates are able to move because the Earth's lithosphere has greater mechanical strength than the underlying asthenosphere. Lateral density variations in the mantle result in convection; that is, the slow creeping motion of Earth's solid mantle. Plate movement is thought to be driven by a combination of the motion of the seafloor away from spreading ridges due to variations in topography (the ridge is a topographic high) and density changes in the crust (density increases as newly formed crust cools and moves away from the ridge. These average rates of plate separations can range widely. The Arctic Ridge has the slowest rate (less than 2.5 cm/yr), and the East Pacific Rise near Easter Island, in the South Pacific about 3,400 km west of Chile, has the fastest rate (more than 15 cm/yr).

If the coefficient of friction is 0.3900 and the cylinder has a radius of 2.700 m, what is the minimum angular speed of the cyli
Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

w=3.05 rad/s or 29.88rpm

Explanation:

k = coefficient of friction = 0.3900

R = radius of the cylinder = 2.7m

V = linear speed of rotation of the cylinder

w = angular speed = V/R or to rewrite V = w*R

N = normal force to cylinder

N==\frac{m(V)^{2}}{R}=m*(w)^2*R

Friction force\\Ff = k*N\\Ff= k*m*w^2*R

Gravitational force \\Fg = m*g

These must be balanced (the net force on the people will be 0) so set them equal to each other.

Fg = Ff

m*g = k*m*w^2*R

g=k*w^{2}*R

w^2 =\frac{g}{k*R}

w=\sqrt{\frac{g}{k*R}} \\w =\sqrt{\frac{9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}{0.3900*2.7m}}\\ w=\sqrt{9.306}=3.05 \frac{rad}{s}

There are 2*pi radians in 1 revolution so:

RPM=\frac{w}{2\pi }*60\\RPM=\frac{3.05\frac{rad}{s}}{2\pi}*60\\RPM= 0.498*60\\RPM=29.88

So you need about 30 RPM to keep people from falling out the bottom

16. A 95kg fullback, running at 8.2m/s, collided in midair with a 128 kg defensive tackle moving in the opposite direction. Both
Daniel [21]

a) 779 kg m/s

The momentum of an object is given by:

p = mv

where

m is the mass of the object

v is its velocity

For the fullback before the collision,

m = 95 kg

v = 8.2 m/s

Therefore, his momentum was:

p=mv=(95)(8.2)=779 kg m/s

b) -779 kg m/s

After the collision, both the fullback and the tackle come to a stop: this means that their momentum after the collision is zero,

p' = 0

The initial momentum of the fullback was

p = 779 kg m/s

Therefore, his change in momentum is

\Delta p = p' -p =0-779  = -779 kg m/s

where the negative sign indicates that the direction is opposite to the initial direction of motion.

c) -779 kg m/s

Here we can apply the law of conservation of momentum. In fact, the total momentum before and after the collision must be conserved. So we can write:

p_f + p_t = p'

where

p_f is the initial momentum of the fullback

p_t is the initial momentum of the tackle

p' is the final combined momentum after the collision

We already know that

p_f = 779 kg m/s\\p' = 0

Therefore, we can find the tackle's original momentum:

p_t = p'-p_f = 0-(779) = -779 kg m/s

where the negative sign indicates that the direction is opposite to the initial direction of motion of the fullback.

e) -6.1 m/s

To find the velocity of the tackle, we can use again the equation of the momentum:

p = mv

where here we have

p=-779 kg m/s is the original momentum of the tackle

m = 128 kg is his mass

Solving the equation for v, we find the tackle's original velocity:

v=\frac{p}{m}=\frac{-779}{128}=-6.1 m/s

So, he was moving at 6.1 m/s in the direction opposite to the fullback.

Gold has a density of 19.3 grams per cubic centimeter. what is the density of gold in metric tons per cubic meter?
valina [46]
In order to determine this, we will first need some conversions. We will need to convert metric tons and grams into one another and also cubic centimeters to cubic meters into one another.

1 metric ton = 1000 kg

1 kg = 1000 grams

1 metric ton = 10⁶ grams

So 10⁶ grams / metric ton


1 meter = 100 cm
1 m³ = (100)³ cm³
1 m³ = 10⁶ cm³

So 10⁶ cm⁶ / m³

Now, we manipulate the given value:

(19.3 grams / cm³) * (1 metric ton / 10⁶ grams) * (10⁶ cm³ / m³)
= 19.3 metric tons / m³

The density of gold is 19.3 metric tons meter meter cubed.
