Answer:

a) W_{g}=mdx = 0.21 kg *9.8\frac{m}{s^2} 0.10m=0.2058 J

b) W_{spring}= -\frac{1}{2} Kx^2 =-\frac{1}{2} 200 N/m (0.1m)^2=-1 J

c) V_i =\sqrt{2 \frac{W_g + W_{spring}}{0.21 kg}}}=\sqrt{2 \frac{(1-0.2058)}{0.21 kg}}}=2.75m/s

d)  d_1 =0.183m or 18.3 cm

Explanation:

For this case we have the following system with the forces on the figure attached.

We know that the spring compresses a total distance of x=0.10 m

Part a

The gravitational force is defined as mg so on this case the work donde by the gravity is:

W_{g}=mdx = 0.21 kg *9.8\frac{m}{s^2} 0.10m=0.2058 J

Part b

For this case first we can convert the spring constant to N/m like this:

2 \frac{N}{cm} \frac{100cm}{1m}=200 \frac{N}{m}

And the work donde by the spring on this case is given by:

W_{spring}= -\frac{1}{2} Kx^2 =-\frac{1}{2} 200 N/m (0.1m)^2=-1 J

Part c

We can assume that the initial velocity for the block is Vi and is at rest from the end of the movement. If we use balance of energy we got:

W_{g} +W_{spring} = K_{f} -K_{i}=0- \frac{1}{2} m v^2_i

And if we solve for the initial velocity we got:

V_i =\sqrt{2 \frac{W_g + W_{spring}}{0.21 kg}}}=\sqrt{2 \frac{(1-0.2058)}{0.21 kg}}}=2.75m/s

Part d

Let d1 represent the new maximum distance, in order to find it we know that :

-1/2mV^2_i = W_g + W_{spring}

And replacing we got:

-1/2mV^2_i =mg d_1 -1/2 k d^2_1

And we can put the terms like this:

\frac{1}{2} k d^2_1 -mg d_1 -1/2 m V^2_i =0

If we multiply all the equation by 2 we got:

k d^2_1 -2 mg d_1 -m V^2_i =0

Now we can replace the values and we got:

200N/m d^2_1 -0.21kg(9.8m/s^2)d_1 -0.21 kg(5.50 m/s)^2) =0

200 d^2_1 -2.058 d_1 -6.3525=0

And solving the quadratic equation we got that the solution for d_1 =0.183m or 18.3 cm because the negative solution not make sense.

One of the harmonics of a string fixed at both ends has a frequency of 52.2 Hz and the next higher harmonic has a frequency of 6
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Solution :

Frequency may be defined as the number of observation or number of waves that is taken in per unit time. The unit of frequency is Hertz or Hz.

It is given that :

Successive harmonic frequencies, f = 52.2 Hz

and f' = 60.9 Hz

Therefore, fundamental frequency, F = f' - f

                                                           F = 60.9 - 52.2

                                                          F = 8.7 Hz

Therefore the string which is fixed at both the ends forms all the harmonics.

A satellite with a mass of 110 kg and a kinetic energy of 3.0 ´ 109 J must be moving at a speed of
djverab [1.8K]

Answer: A satellite with a mass of 110 kg and a kinetic energy of 3.08×10^9 J must be moving at a speed of 7483 m/s.

Explanation: To find the answer we need to know about the kinetic energy of a body.

<h3>How to solve the problem the equation of kinetic energy?</h3>
  • We have the expression for kinetic energy of a body as,

                                   KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

  • Given that,

                                   m=110kg\\KE=3.08*10^9J\\

  • We have to find the speed of the satellite,

                               v=\sqrt{\frac{2KE}{m} } =\sqrt{\frac{2*3.08*10^9}{110} } =7.483*10^3 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that, the velocity of the satellite will be 7438m/s.

Label these as balanced or unbalanced:
kvasek [131]

Answer:

  1. A book lying on a table  - Balanced force
  2. An airplane cruising in level flight  - Balanced
  3. A rock falling from a cliff  - Unbalanced force
  4. A bridge collapsing in an earthquake  -  Unbalanced force
  5. A man sitting on a park bench  - Balanced force
  6. A space shuttle taking off  - Unbalanced force
  7. A car maintaining a constant speed on a straight road  - Balanced force
  8. An airplane landing - Unbalanced force

Explanation:

Usually, one or more forces act on a body at an instant of time. When these forces acting on a body and bring the body in the equilibrium position, the force is said to be balanced. The unbalanced force changes the equilibrium state of the body.

As in the case of an airplane cruising in a level flight, the weight of the plane will be equal to the lift force and the thrust is equal to the drag. So the plane is experiencing a balanced force.
