A certain spring is found not to obey Hooke’s law; it exerts a restoring force Fx(x)=−αx−βx2 if it is stretched or compressed, w

here α=60.0N/m and β=18.0N/m2. The mass of the spring is negligible. (a) Calculate the potential-energy function U(x) for this spring. Let U = 0 when x = 0. (b) An object with mass 0.900 kg on a frictionless, horizontal surface is attached to this spring, pulled a distance 1.00 m to the right (the +x-direction) to stretch the spring, and released. What is the speed of the object when it is 0.50 m to the right of the x = 0 equilibrium position?

Answer:U(x) = 30x^2 +6x^3

V^2=8.28m/s

Explanation:The law of conservation of energy is given by K1+U1= K2+U2 ...eq 1

Kinetic energy K.E= 1/2 mv^2

Restoring force function F(x)= -60x - 18x^2

But F(x)= -dU/dx

dU(x)=-F(x)dx

Integrating U(x)= -integral F(x)dx + U(0)

Substituting, we get

U(x) = - integral(-60x-18x^2)dx+U(0)

U(x)= 30x^2+6x^3+U(0)

U=0 at x=0

Therefore U(x)= 30x^2+6x^3

b) Given : x1=1.00m,x2= 0.50m ,V1=0, V2=?

Substituting into eq (a)

U1= 30(1.00)^2+6(1.00)^3=36J

Using x2=0.5 into eq(a)

U2=30(0.50)^2+6(0.50)^3=8.25J

Object at rest K1=0

0+36=K2+8.25

K2=27.75J

Given; m =0.900kg, V2=?

27.75=1/2×0.900×V2^2

V2= SQRT(2×27.75)/0.81

V2= 8.28m/s

velikii [3]

The player that possess the best ball handling skills and usually handles

the ball often is referred to as the point guard.

Point guards in basketball are referred to as the players who have certain

characteristics such as speed ,an excellent ball handling skills and

leadership qualities.

Point guards is similar to the creative midfielder in soccer which helps to

dictate play and create chances for other team mates which is why they

handle the ball often.

If tides occur twice a day in most places. How much time is there between a morning high tide and the next high tide?
algol13

About 12 hours is the time between a morning high tide and the next high tide

Explanation:

The Earth’s rotation happens between two tidal bulges  

The “periodic rise and fall” of the surface water levels of the ocean is called tides. The gravitational action and interaction on the earth by the sun and the moon causes these tides. Different regions of the World experiences different patterns of tides like the diurnal, semi-diurnal etc.

When there is one high and one low tide occurring on a lunar day, then it is diurnal pattern. Semi-diurnal pattern occurs when there are two equal high and low tides on a single lunar day.

Since the Earth’s rotation happens between two tidal “bulges” on each lunar day, the coastal areas can experience two high and two low tides in every 24 hours plus 50 minutes.

Accordingly the time between two high tides would be 12 hours plus 25 minutes. Similarly, the time gap between a high to low tide would be 6 hours plus 12.5 minutes.

an object 50 cm high is placed 1 m in front of a converging lens whose focal length is 1.5 m. determine the image height (in cm)
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Given :

An object 50 cm high is placed 1 m in front of a converging lens whose focal length is 1.5 m.

To Find :

the image height (in cm).

Solution :

By lens formula :

\dfrac{1}{v} - \dfrac{1}{u} = \dfrac{1}{f}

Here, u = - 100 cm

f =  150 cm

\dfrac{1}{v} - \dfrac{1}{-100} = \dfrac{1}{150}\\\\v = - 300 \ cm

Now, magnification is given by :

m = \dfrac{v}{u} = \dfrac{h_i}{h_o}\\\\h_i = \dfrac{300}{100}\times 1\\\\h_i = 3 \ m

Therefore, the image height is 3 m or 300 cm.
