A 1300 kg car starts at rest and rolls down a hill from a height of 10.0 m. It then moves across a

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

0.51 m

Explanation:

Using the principle of conservation of energy, change in potential energy equals to the change in kinetic energy of the spring.

Kinetic energy, KE=½kx²

Where k is spring constant and x is the compression of spring

Potential energy, PE=mgh

Where g is acceleration due to gravity, h is height and m is mass

Equating KE=PE

mgh=½kx²

Making x the subject of formula

$x=\sqrt {\frac {2mgh}{k}}$

Substituting 9.81 m/s² for g, 1300 kg for m, 10m for h and 1000000 for k then

$x=\sqrt \frac {2*1300*9.81*10}{1000000}=0.50503465227646m\\x\approx 0.51 m$

Compare the time period of two simple pendulums of length 4m and 16m at a place.

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

the period of the 16 m pendulum is twice the period of the 4 m pendulum

Explanation:

Recall that the period (T) of a pendulum of length (L) is defined as:

$T=2\,\pi\,\sqrt{ \frac{L}{g} }$

where "g" is the local acceleration of gravity.

SInce both pendulums are at the same place, "g" is the same for both, and when we compare the two periods, we get:

$T_1=2\,\pi\,\sqrt{\frac{4}{g} } \\T_2=2\,\pi\,\sqrt{\frac{16}{g} } \\ \\\frac{T_2}{T_1} =\sqrt{\frac{16}{4} } =2$

therefore the period of the 16 m pendulum is twice the period of the 4 m pendulum.

__________ carries carcinogens into the lungs

larisa [96]

Tobacco smoking is an unhealthy habit which can cause cancer due to the presence of more than 5000 chemicals, some of which are carcinogens (a chemical that causes cancer). It is the smoke itself, that carries carcinogens to the lungs and can eventually lead to the development of diseases such as lung cancer.
