Answer: 586.60N/m
Explanation:
In this scenario, the elastic potential energy of the spring is converted into potential energy.
0.5*K*x^2 = mgh
Thus K = 2mgh/x^2
=(2*2.90*10^-2*9.8*7.23)/(8.37*10^-2)^2
=586.599
Therefore K = 586.60N/m
Answer:
T = 92.8 min
Explanation:
Given:
The altitude of the International Space Station t minutes after its perigee (closest point), in kilometers, is given by:
Find:
- How long does the International Space Station take to orbit the earth? Give an exact answer.
Solution:
- Using the the expression given we can extract the angular speed of the International Space Station orbit:
- Where the coefficient of t is angular speed of orbit w = 2*p / 92.8
- We know that the relation between angular speed w and time period T of an orbit is related by:
T = 2*p / w
T = 2*p / (2*p / 92.8)
Hence, T = 92.8 min
Answer:
1) Lightning, you see the lightning first and then hear the thunder.
2)When a person far away from you hits a ball with a bat, you can see them striking the ball first and then you will hear the sound of ball striking against the bat.
To solve this problem we will apply the principles of energy conservation. On the one hand we have that the work done by the non-conservative force is equivalent to -30J while the work done by the conservative force is 50J.
This leads to the direct conclusion that the resulting energy is 20J.
The conservative force is linked to the movement caused by the sum of the two energies, therefore there is an increase in kinetic energy. The decrease in the mechanical energy of the system is directly due to the loss given by the non-conservative force, therefore there is a decrease in mechanical energy.
Therefore the correct answer is A. Kintetic energy increases and mechanical energy decreases.
