Answer:
0.02585 BTU
Explanation:
Given: Spring constant, k = 270 lbf/in
Initial force, f =100 lbf
Compression, x = 1 in
Work done can be calculated as follows:

Answer:
Explanation:
potential energy of compressed spring
= 1/2 k d²
= 1/2 x 730 d²
= 365 d²
This energy will be given to block of mass of 1.2 kg in the form of kinetic energy .
Kinetic energy after crossing the rough patch
= 1/2 x 1.2 x 2.3²
= 3.174 J
Loss of energy
= 365 d² - 3.174
This loss is due to negative work done by frictional force
work done by friction = friction force x width of patch
= μmg d , μ = coefficient of friction , m is mass of block , d is width of patch
= .44 x 1.2 x 9.8 x .05
= .2587 J
365 d² - 3.174 = .2587
365 d² = 3.4327
d² = 3.4327 / 365
= .0094
d = .097 m
= 9.7 cm
If friction increases , loss of energy increases . so to achieve same kinetic energy , d will have to be increased so that initial energy increases so compensate increased loss .
Answer: 20
Explanation: Mass number is the number of neutrons plus the number of protons. 8 + 12 gives 20.
Answer:
230 m/s northeast, 1.8 m/s up
Explanation:
204 kilometres = 204000 metres
15.0 minutes = 900 seconds
Velocity = Distance / Time
= 204000 / 900
= 230 m/s northeast (to 2 sf.)
1.6km = 1600 metres
Velocity = 1600 / 900
= 1.8 m/s up (to 2 sf.)
