The stretch of the spring is
The constant of the spring is k=15 N/m, so we can find the force produced by the weight by using Hook's law:
Data:
m (mass) = 1 Kg
s (speed) = 3 m/s
Kinetic energy = ? (Joule)
Formula (Kinetic energy)
Solving:
First, determine the mass of the object by dividing its weight on Earth by 9.8 m/s² as shown below,
m = 250 N / 9.8 m/s² = 25.51 kg
Then, multiply the obtained mass by the acceleration due to gravity (g) on Pluto.
W (in Pluto) = (25.51 kg) x (0.61 m/s²) = 15.56 N
Therefore, the object will only weigh 15.56 N.
Answer:
20.96 h
Explanation:
The perimeter of the track is 2*pi*r = 20pi miles
In 10 hours, car B would have moved 20miles. So, when Car A leaves from point X, car B is 20pi - 20 miles from point X counter-clockwise and car A.
From here, we can express the distance of A from X like this:
xa = 3t
And the distance of B would be:
xb = 20pi - 20 - 2t
The time t where they would passed each other and put 12 miles between them would be the one where xa - xb is equal to 12:
xa - xb = 12
3t - (20pi - 20 - 2t) = 12
5t = 20 pi - 8
t = (20pi - 8)/5 = 10.96 h
Remember to add this value to the 10 hours car B had already been racing:
t = 20.96h
