Suppose a ball with mass M hangs vertically from a spring with stiffness k and relaxed length L0. At what length Leq will the ba

Eddi Din [679]3 years ago

Answer:

At equilibrium, the sum of vertical forces are equal to zero. Let's analyze the downward and upward components of the forces.

Downward forces: F_{down} = Mg (Gravity)(g is the gravitational constant.)

Upward forces: F_{up} = kx (Spring)

Equilibrium condition: Mg - kx = 0.

x = \frac{Mg}{k}

L_{eq} = L_{0} + x

so

L_{eq} = L_{0} + \frac{Mg}{k}.

Explanation:

If there is no masses hanging from the spring, the length of the spring is equal to L_{0}. When there is a mass M hanging, the spring will be stretched by an amount of x. This distance can be found by using the equilibrium condition, that the sum of the forces is equal to zero.

The volume in the pump when the pump piston is all the way down represents the _______
sveticcg [70]

The volume in the pump when the pump piston is all the way down represents the end systolic volume.

<h3>What is systolic volume?</h3>

End systolic volume is the volume of blood in a ventricle at the end of contraction, or systole, and the beginning of filling, or diastole.

End systolic volume is the lowest volume of blood in the ventricle at any point in the cardiac cycle.

Thus, the volume in the pump when the pump piston is all the way down represents the end systolic volume.

A ball is thrown vertically upward. As it rises, what happens to its total energy?.
diamong [38]

The total energy of a ball stays constant as it is thrown upward because potential energy increases while kinetic energy decreases. When the ball reaches its maximum height, the velocity is zero. Therefore, only potential energy exists rather than kinetic energy.

The thrower's movement imparts kinetic energy to a ball thrown vertically. The maximum height that can be achieved after leaving the hand will depend on the actual velocity. Air resistance causes some of this energy to be lost to the air as frictional dissipation, which warms the air in the area as well as the ball's surface.

We can just talk about how the ball moves when it is in the gravitational field of the Earth if we ignore this for the purposes of this discussion. The ball's total energy as it is released is comprised of both its gravitational potential energy and its kinetic energy, which result from the ball's velocity (due to its position).

The gravitational potential energy begins to rise as the ball moves vertically upward at precisely the same pace as it loses kinetic energy. The ball experiences a steady downward acceleration of 9.81 m/s2, which causes it to initially decline until it briefly comes to a stop at its highest point.

Due to its current position in the Earth's gravitational field relative to its initial position, all of the energy at this point is gravitational potential energy. As the ball experiences constant downward acceleration, its motion immediately becomes apparent in that direction because the acceleration easily transforms gravitational potential energy back into kinetic energy.

As a result, at every point along the trajectory, the total of these interchangeable forms of energy remains constant.

Earl is using his hands to hold a metal pan 10 centimeters above a hot burner. How can this scenario be changed to demonstrate c
Olenka [21]

Answer: touch the pan to the burner

Explanation:

There are three modes of heat transfer:

conduction, convection and radiation.  

For conduction, the heat transfers from a hot object to a cold object when the two are in contact.

For convection there is bulk motion of fluid occurs which transfers the heat.

For heat transfer by radiation, medium is not required.

Thus, to demonstrate conduction between pan and burner, the pan must touch the burner.
