Answer:

4*10^-2

Explanation:

for the scientific notation the first number must be between 1 and 10, so in this case it is 4. 4/100 is also equal to 0.04, and if we could the number of places before 4, there are two, therefore 4 times 10 to the power of -2

A net force of 60 N north acts on an object with a mass of 30 kg. Use Newton's second law of

earnstyle [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

F = ma. For us, this looks like

60 = 30a and

a = 2 m/s/s

If the force goes up to, say, 90, then

90 = 30a and

a = 3...if the force goes up, the acceleration also goes up.

If the mass goes up to say, 60, and the force stays the same, then

60 = 60a and

a = 1...if the mass goes up, the acceleration goes down.

A horizontal block-spring system with the block on a frictionless surface has total mechanical energy E = 50.9 J and a maximum d

Llana [10]

(a) 2446 N/m

When the spring is at its maximum displacement, the elastic potential energy of the system is equal to the total mechanical energy:

$E=U=\frac{1}{2}kA^2$

where

U is the elastic potential energy

k is the spring constant

A is the maximum displacement (the amplitude)

Here we have

U = E = 50.9 J

A = 0.204 m

Substituting and solving the formula for k,

$k=\frac{2E}{A^2}=\frac{2(50.9)}{(0.204)^2}=2446 N/m$

(b) 50.9 J

The total mechanical energy of the system at any time during the motion is given by:

E = K + U

where

K is the kinetic energy

U is the elastic potential energy

We know that the total mechanical energy is constant: E = 50.9 J

We also know that at the equilibrium point, the elastic potential energy is zero:

$U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=0$ because x (the displacement) is zero

Therefore the kinetic energy at the equilibrium point is simply equal to the total mechanical energy:

$K=E=50.9 J$

(c) 8.55 kg

The maximum speed of the block is v = 3.45 m/s, and it occurs when the kinetic energy is maximum, so when

K = 50.9 J (at the equilibrium position)

Kinetic energy can be written as

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where m is the mass

Solving the equation for m, we find the mass:

$m=\frac{2K}{v^2}=\frac{2(50.9)}{(3.45)^2}=8.55 kg$

(d) 2.14 m/s

When the displacement is

x = 0.160 m

The elastic potential energy is

$U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}(2446)(0.160)^2=31.3 J$

So the kinetic energy is

$K=E-U=50.9 J-31.3 J=19.6 J$

And so we can find the speed through the formula of the kinetic energy:

$K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2 \rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(19.6)}{8.55}}=2.14 m/s$

(e) 19.6 J

The elastic potential energy when the displacement is x = 0.160 m is given by

$U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}(2446)(0.160)^2=31.3 J$

And since the total mechanical energy E is constant:

E = 50.9 J

the kinetic energy of the block at this point is

$K=E-U=50.9 J-31.3 J=19.6 J$

(f) 31.3 J

The elastic potential energy stored in the spring at any time is

$U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2$

where

k = 2446 N/m is the spring constant

x is the displacement

Substituting

x = 0.160 m

we find the elastic potential energy:

$U=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}(2446)(0.160)^2=31.3 J$

(g) x = 0

The postion at that instant is x = 0, since it is given that at that instant the system passes the equilibrium position, which is zero.
