A block with mass m 2.00 kg is placed against a spring on a frictionless incline with angle 30 degrees (Fig. B-43). (The block i
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

The stored elastic energy of compressed spring

= 1 / 2 k X²

= .5 x 19.6 x (.20)²

= .392 J

b ) The stored potential energy will be converted into gravitational potential energy of the block earth system when the block will ascend along the incline . So change in the gravitational potential energy will be same as stored elastic potential energy of the spring that is .392 J .

c ) Let h be the distance along the incline which the block ascends.

vertical height attained ( H ) =h sin30

= .5 h

elastic potential energy = gravitational energy

.392 = mg H

.392 = 2 x 9.8 x .5 h

h = .04 m

4 cm .

An automobile of mass 1.46 cross times to the power of blank 10 cubed kg rounds a curve of radius 25.0 m with a velocity of 15.0
Vsevolod [243]

The centripetal force exerted on the automobile while rounding the curve is 1.31\times10^4 N

<u>Explanation:</u>

given that

Mass\ of\ the\ automobile\ m  =1.46\times 10^3 kg\\radius\ of\ the\ curve\ r =25 m\\velocity\ of\ the\ automobile\ v=15m/s\\

Objects moving around a circular track will experience centripetal force towards the center of the circular track.

centripetal\ force=mv^2/r\\=1.46\times10^3\times15^2/25\\=1.46\times 10^3\times 225/15\\=1.31\times 10^4 N
