What is the physical representation of the area under a force versus extension or compression curve?

Physics
1 answer:
lidiya [134]3 years ago
5 0

The compression curve would be theoretically given for a system of bodies in which the spring applies the force (Although in the same way the following process can be extrapolated to any system, depending on the type of Force to consider) For a spring mass system, the strength is given by Hooke's law as

F = Kx

Where,

K  = Spring constant

x = Displacement

If we integrate based on distance we would have

\int F = \int K x dx

This integral represents the area under the Force Curve based on each distance segment traveled.

\int F = K \int xdx

\int F = K (\frac{1}{2} x^2)

\int F = \frac{1}{2} Kx^2

This is the same formula that represents the elastic potential energy of a body. Therefore the correct answer is D.

A river 800m wide flows at the rate of 5km/h . A swimmer who can swim at 10km/h in still water wants to cross the river straight
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

At an angle of 30^{\circ}

Explanation:

Assume the river flows from East to West so for the swimmer to cross across it, assume he crosses it from West to East.

The resultant speed will be given by

R= \sqrt {10^{2}-5^{2}=\sqrt {75}\approx 8.66 km/h\\Direction=sin^{-1}\frac {5}{10}\approx 30^{\circ}

What is the magnitude of the momentum change of two gallons of water (inertia about 7.3 kg ) as it comes to a stop in a bathtub
aliya0001 [1]

We know that the change in momentum is equals to the product of force and time that is impulse (  F \times t). Therefore, we need to determine the value of that the water is in air by using the second equation of motion,

s=ut+\frac{1}{2} gt^2

Here, u is initial velocity which is zero.

s= \frac{1}{2} gt^2 \\\\ t = \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} }.

Thus, impulse

= F \times \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} }

From Newton`s second law,

F =mg

Therefore, impulse

= mg \times \sqrt{\frac{2s}{g} } = m \sqrt{2gs}

Given,  m = 7.3 kg and s = 2.0 m

Substituting these values, we get

Change in momentum = impulse  

= 7.3 \ kg \sqrt{2 \times 9.8 \ m/s^2 \times 2.0 \ m } = 45 .7 \ Ns.

A swimmer is capable of swimming 0.42 m/s in still water. part a if she aims her body directly across a 66-m-wide river whose cu
satela [25.4K]
<span>If the swimmer is swimming perpendicular to the current, it will take her 66m / 0.42 m/s = 157.14 seconds to cross the river. At the same time, the current will be taking her downstream at a rate of 0.32 m/s. So, when she reaches the opposite bank, her total downstream distance traveled will have been 0.32*157.14 = 50.28 meters.</span>
