The horizontal surface on which the block (mass 2.0 kg) slides is frictionless. The speed of the block before it touches the spr

ing is 6.0 m/s. How fast is the block moving at the instant the spring has been compressed 15 cm? k = 2.0 kN/m

Answer:3.67 m/s

Explanation:

mass of block(m)=2 kg

Velocity of block=6 m/s

spring constant(k)=2 KN/m

Spring compression x=15 cm

Conserving Energy

energy lost by block =Gain in potential energy in spring

\frac{m(v_1^2-v_2^2)}{2}=\frac{kx^2}{2}

2\left [ 6^2-v_2^2\right ]=2\times 10^3\times \left [ 0.15\right ]^2

v_2=3.67 m/s

What happens when a spinning ice skater draws in her outstretched arms? Group of answer choices Her moment of inertia increases
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

Her moment of inertia decreases causing her spin to speed up. The physics law behind this phenomenon is the conservation of angular momentum.

Explanation:

<em>Theory</em>

<u>The Law of conservation of angular momentum</u>

The angular momentum of a rotating body or a system remains constant unless it is acted upon by an external unbalance force.

Angular momentum = moment of inertia × angular velocity

The moment of inertia = mass×[perpendicular distance from axis of rotation]²

___________________________________________________________

⇒When skater draws in her outstretched arms the mass distribution get      concentrated towards the axis of rotation so the moment of inertia of the body decrease.

But angular moment should conserve so angular velocity  increases (spin increases)

Why are Substances used as perfumes are usually in a liquid state
tester [92]

Answer:

Perfume is a mixture of fragrant oils in an ethanol/water solvent. The ethanol/water mixture, which is volatile, evaporates from the droplets within a few seconds, leaving behind a droplet of the fragrant compounds in the perfume. These compounds will also eventually evaporate to form a vapor of the fragrant molecules

Which of the following is not true? A) The energy of the sun comes from nuclear fusion. B) The fuel for nuclear fusion comes fr
denpristay [2]

Answer:

Option B) The fuel for nuclear fusion comes from sea water

Explanation:

Nuclear fusion can not be carried out by using any type of water as water is composed of stable water molecules (H_{2}O which is quite difficult to be decayed by any simple method.

Moreover, fusion reactions demands the combination of nuclei of lighter elements for which it makes use of the heavy isotopes of Hydrogen that are Deuterium and Tritium as fuel to carry out the nuclear fusion.
