What are 3 criteria for acceleration?

1 answer:

3 0

I don't think you mean 'criteria'. I think you mean three occurrences or
observations that indicate the presence of acceleration.

They are:

-- an object is speeding up
-- an object is slowing down
-- the direction of an object's motion is changing .

Any one of these changes is acceleration.

There's a single term that covers them all. It is "change in velocity".

A mass of 0.5 kg hangs motionless from a vertical spring whose length is 1.10 m and whose unstretched length is 0.50 m. Next the

ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

The maximum length during the motion is $L_{max} = 1.45m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass is $m =0.5 kg$

The vertical spring length is $L = 1.10m$

The unstretched length is $L_{un} = 1.30m$

The initial speed is $v_i = 1.3m/s$

The new length of the spring $L_{new} = 1.30 m$

The spring constant k is mathematically represented as

$k = -\frac{F}{y}$

Where F is the force applied $= m * g = 0.5 * 9.8=4.9N$

y is the difference in weight which is $=1.10-0.50=0.6m$

The negative sign is because the displacement of the spring (i.e its extension occurs against the force F)

Now substituting values accordingly

$k = \frac{4.9}{0.6}$

$= 8.17 N/m$

The elastic potential energy is given as $E_{PE} = \frac{1}{2} k D^2$

where D is this the is the displacement

Since Energy is conserved the total elastic potential energy would be

$E_T = initial \ elastic\ potential \ energy + kinetic \ energy$

$E_T = \frac{1}{2} k D_{max}^2 = \frac{1}{2} k D^2 + \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

Substituting value accordingly

$\frac{1}{2} *8.17 *D_{max}^2 =\frac{1}{2} * 8.17*(1.30 - 0.50)^2 + \frac{1}{2} * 0.5 *1.30^2$

$4.085 * D_{max}^2 = 3.69$

$D^2_{max} = 0.9033$

$D_{max} = 0.950m$

So to obtain total length we would add the unstretched length

So we have

$L_{max} = 0.950 + 0.5 = 1.45m$

Tony gets stung by an ant. He applies baking soda, a weak base, to the site. What acid is Tony neutralizing with the baking soda

kumpel [21]

That's good ! I never heard of that before. (Maybe because
I've never been stung by an ant.)

When an ant bites or stings, it injects a tiny amount of 'formic acid'
into your skin. Soon, the formic acid itches, burns, and stings, and
after a while, a little piece of skin dies and falls off. Some people
are seriously allergic to it, and it can make them really sick.

'Acids' and 'bases' are opposites, and one can neutralize (cancel out)
the other. Tony is putting a weak 'base' on the sting, to neutralize the
formic acid that the ant left him as a little gift.
