The force required to slow the truck was -5020 N

Explanation:

First of all, we find the acceleration of the truck, which is given by

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time

For the truck in this problem,

v = 11.5 m/s

u = 21.9 m/s

t = 2.88 s

So the acceleration is

$a=\frac{11.5-21.9}{2.88}=-3.6 m/s^2$

where the negative sign means that this is a deceleration.

Now we can find the force exerted on the truck, which is given by Newton's second law:

$F=ma$

where

m = 1390 kg is the mass of the truck

$a=-3.6 m/s^2$ is the acceleration

And substituting,

$F=(1390)(-3.6)=-5004 N$

So the closest answer among the option is -5020 N.

a concrete cube of side 0.50 m and uniform density 2.0 x 103 kg m–3 is lifted 3.0 m vertically by a crane. what is the change in

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Change in potential energy = 7350 Joules

Explanation:

It is given that,

Side of cube, a = 0.5 m

Density of cube, $d=2\times 10^3\ kg/m^3$

The cube is lifted vertically by a crane to a height of 3 m

We know that, density $d=\dfrac{m}{V}$

So, m = d × V (V = volume of cube = a³)

$m=2\times 10^3\ kg/m^3\times (0.5\ m)^3$

m = 250 kg

We have to find the change in potential energy of the cube. At ground level, the potential energy is equal to 0.

Potential energy at height h is given by :

$PE=mgh$

PE = 250 kg × 9.8 m/s² ×3 m

PE = 7350 Joules

So, change in potential energy of the cube is 7350 Joules.

An apple weighs 1.00 N. When you hang it from the end of a long spring of force constant 1.50 N/m and negligible mass, it bounce

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

2.67 m

Explanation:

k = Spring constant = 1.5 N/m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

l = Unstretched length

Frequency of SHM motion is given by

$f_s=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}$

Frequency of pendulum is given by

$f_p=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}}$

Given in the question

$f_p=\dfrac{1}{2}f_s$

$\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}\\\Rightarrow \sqrt{\dfrac{g}{l}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{g}{l}=\dfrac{1}{4}\dfrac{k}{m}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{4gm}{k}\\\Rightarrow l=\dfrac{4\times 9.81\times \dfrac{1}{9.81}}{1.5}\\\Rightarrow l=2.67\ m$
