Find the speed with which the disk slides across the surface

Answer:

\boxed{2.85 m/s}

Explanation:

The Potential energy of spring is transformed to kinetic energy hence

0.5kx^{2}=0.5mv^{2}\\kx^{2}=mv^{2}\\v=\sqrt{\frac {kx^{2}}{m}}

Here k is the spring constant, x is the extension of spring, v is the velocity of disk and m is the mass of the disk.

Substituting 0.117 Kg for m, 194 N/m for k and 0.07 m for x then

v=\sqrt{\frac {194\times 0.07^{2}}{0.117}}=2.850401081 m/s\approx \boxed{2.85 m/s}

Astronaut Rob leaves Earth in a spaceship at a speed of 0.960crelative to an observer onEarth. Rob's destination is a star syste
Slav-nsk [51]

To solve this problem we will use the mathematical definition of the light years in metric terms, from there, through the kinematic equations of motion we will find the distance traveled as a function of the speed in proportion to the elapsed time. Therefore we have to

1Ly =9.4605284*10^{15}m \rightarrow 'Ly'means  Light Year

Then

14.4Ly = 1.36231609*10^{17} m

If we have that

v= \frac{x}{t} \rightarrow t = \frac{x}{t}

Where,

v = Velocity

x = Displacement

t = Time

We have that

t = \frac{1.36231609*10^{17}}{0.96c} \rightarrow c= Speed of light

t = \frac{1.36231609*10^{17}}{0.96(3*10^8)}

t= 454105363 s (\frac{1hour}{3600s})

t= 126140 hours(\frac{1day}{24hours})

t= 5255.85 days(\frac{1 year}{365days})

t = 14.399 years

Therefore will take 14.399 years

A tiger leaps with an initial velocity of 35.0 km/hr at an angle of 13.0ᶿ with respect to the horizontal. What are the component
Lorico [155]

Answer:

Vx = 35 x cos(13deg)

Vy = 35 x sin(13deg) - gt  

(g is acceleration due to gravity =~9.8 meter/second^2, t is time in second)

Explanation:

The tiger leaps up, then x and y component of its velocity are:

Vx = Vo x cos(alpha)

Vy = Vo x sin(alpha) - gt

(Vo is tiger's initial velocity, alpha is angle between its leaping direction and horizontal plane)

Hope this helps!

What is water potential???​
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Water potential is the potential energy of water per unit volume relative to pure water in reference conditions. Water potential quantifies the tendency of water to move from one area to another due to osmosis, gravity, mechanical pressure and matrix effects such as capillary action.
