Answer:

3.92 cm

Explanation:

Assuming spring cinstant of 800 N/m, we know that the potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy in spring hence

mgx=0.5kx^{2} where m is the mass of the block, g is acceleration due to gravity, x is the extent of compression of the spring and k is spring constant. Making x the subject of the above formula then x=\frac {2mg}{k}

Substituting 1.6 kg for m, 9.81 for g and 800 N/m for k then

x=\frac {2*1.6*9.81}{800}=0.03924m\approx 3.92cm

A 125 W motor accelerates a block along a level, frictionless surface at an average speed of 5.0
Lelu [443]

Answer:

25N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Power of the motor = 125W

Average speed  = 5m/s

Unknown:

Force supplied to the motor = ?

Solution:

 Work done is the force applied to move a body through a particular distance;

         Work done  = Force x distance

Also,

        Work done  = Power x time

 

So;

             Force x distance = Power  x time

  since force is the unknown;

            Force  = \frac{Power x time}{distance}

         Speed  = \frac{distance }{time}

             Force  = \frac{Power}{speed}

Now solve;

                Force  = \frac{125}{5}    = 25N

In an electroplating process, copper (ionic charge +2e, atomic weight 63.6 g/mol) is deposited using a current of 10.0 A. What m
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

1.974 g

Explanation:

Electrochemical equivalent of copper, z = 0.000329 g/C

I = 10 A

t = 10 minutes = 10 x 60 = 600 seconds

By the use of Farady's law of electrolysis

m = z I t

m = 0.000329 x 10 x 600

m = 1.974 g

42 POINTS!!!!<br><br> are players trying to minimize or maximize friction when playing volleyball?

None

Friction in Volleyball

Frication plays a huge role in every aspect of our lives; it can play a negative or positive role. In volleyball there are various types of friction that have positive influences on the way the game is played and there are others that play a negative role in the way the game is played.

Positive friction in volleyball.

In volleyball the aim of the game is to strike a ball into play that your opponent cannot return or finds it difficult to return. A friction force that makes this possible is the friction of the air on the ball, for example when a player hits a ball with topspin into play, the friction of the air on the ball makes it spin faster than it otherwise would. Topspin makes a ball harder to pick-up and pass to the setter.  

Another force that is present is the ball itself, if there was no friction it would be virtually impossible to pass set, or hit the ball, the ball would just slip through your arms or hands.

When jumping a player also uses the frictions of their feet on the floor to gain a higher jump to strike the ball at maximal height, if this didn't exist players would be slipping and sliding around all over the court.  

Negative friction in volleyball.

Friction also plays a negative part in the game of volleyball, when a player dives for a ball the friction of the court on their skin causes court burn or friction burn. Although the friction of the rubber soles of shoes on the court is a positive it can also be a negative, if there is too much friction players can become injured from the sudden stopping that the friction can cause. Some injuries that can result from this would be hyperextensions of the knees and or ankle injuries.
