Tomtit [17]

Answer:

(a) 185 N/m

(b) 3.083 kg

Explanation:

(a)

Using,

E = 1/2ke²....................... Equation 1

Where E = work done to compress the spring, k = spring constant of the spring, e = compression of the spring.

make k the subject of the equation

k = 2E/e²............... Equation 2

Given: E = 3.7 J, e = 0.20 m

Substitute into equation 2

k = 2(3.7)/0.2²

k = 185 N/m.

(b)

Using,

F = ma.............. Equation 2

Where F = force applied to the spring, m = mass attached to the spring, a = acceleration of the spring.

But from hook's law,

F = ke................. Equation 3

substitute equation 3 into equation 2

ke = ma

make m the subject of the equation

m = ke/a................ Equation 4

Given: k = 185 N/m, e = 0.2 m, a = 12 m/s²

Substitute into equation 4

m = 185(0.2)/12

m = 3.083 kg

When passing through a lock, which light means âapproach the lock under full control?â?
vekshin1
The locks referred to here are the elevators that are used to transport boats safely from one water level to another in dams. These two varying water depths allow river traffic to operate  The attached picture shows how boats enter locks in dam sites.

To regulate traffic, there are traffic lights that signal boatmen to adjust their speed when approaching the lock. The red light means to stop and to steer clear away from the lock to allows the boats inside to exit. The green light signals to enter the lock. Lastly, the amber light means approach the lock at a safe speed and under full control.

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

(a) 1, average velocity = -65.6 m/s

   2, average velocity = -64.8 m/s

   3, average velocity = -64.16 m/s

(b) The instantaneous velocity is -96 m/s

Explanation:

(a)

Average velocity is given  by;

y(t_2,t_1) = \frac{y(t_2) - y(t_1)}{t_2-t_1}

(1)

y(2.1,2) = \frac{(235-16*2.1^2) - (235-16*2^2)}{2.1-2}\\\\ y(2.1,2) = -65.6 \ m/s

(2)

y(2.05,2) = \frac{(235-16*2.05^2) - (235-16*2^2)}{2.05-2}\\\\ y(2.05,2) = -64.8 \ m/s

(3)

y(2.01,2) = \frac{(235-16*2.01^2) - (235-16*2^2)}{2.01-2}\\\\ y(2.01,2) = -64.16 \ m/s

b. y = 235 - 16t²

The instantaneous velocity is given by;

v = dy /dt

dy / dt = -32t

when t = 3 s

v = -32(3)

v = -96 m/s
