Answer:
ΔR = 5 s
Explanation:
The absolute uncertainty or error in an expression is
ΔR = |
| ΔB + |
| ΔA
the absolute value guarantees to take the unfavorable case, that is, the maximum error.
We look for the derivatives
= 1
= -1
we substitute
ΔR = 1 ΔB + 1 ΔA
of the data
ΔB = 3 s
ΔA = 2 s
ΔR = 3 + 2
ΔR = 5 s
Answer:
Compression in the spring, x = 0.20 m
Explanation:
Given that,
Spring constant of the spring, k = 490 N/m
Mass of the block, m = 5 kg
To find,
Compression in the spring.
Solution,
Since the block is suddenly dropped on the spring gravitational potential energy of block converts into elastic potential energy of spring. Its expression is given by :

Where
x is the compression in the spring


x = 0.20 m
So, the compression in the spring due to block is 0.20 meters.
