A spring is used to stop a 50-kg package which is moving down a 20º incline. The spring has a constant k = 30 kN/m and is held b
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

0.3 m

Explanation:

Initially, the package has both gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy.  The spring has elastic energy.  After the package is brought to rest, all the energy is stored in the spring.

Initial energy = final energy

mgh + ½ mv² + ½ kx₁² = ½ kx₂²

Given:

m = 50 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = 8 sin 20º m

v = 2 m/s

k = 30000 N/m

x₁ = 0.05 m

(50)(9.8)(8 sin 20) + ½ (50)(2)² + ½ (30000)(0.05)² = ½ (30000)x₂²

x₂ ≈ 0.314 m

So the spring is compressed 0.314 m from it's natural length.  However, we're asked to find the additional deformation from the original 50mm.

x₂ − x₁

0.314 m − 0.05 m

0.264 m

Rounding to 1 sig-fig, the spring is compressed an additional 0.3 meters.

Uniform, identical bricks 20 cm long are stacked so that 4 cm of each brick extends beyond the brick beneath. How many bricks ca
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

6 bricks

Explanation:

For the bricks system to NOT fall over, then the center of mass of the system must lie within the touching area of the bottom brick.

Let the reference line be at the left end of the base brick, and the bricks are being stacking to the right direction.

- The 1st brick would have a center of mass at 20/2 = 10 cm or 10 + 0, this is < 20 cm so it stays

- 2 stacked bricks would have a center of mass at (10 + 14)/2 = 12 cm or 10 + 2, this is also < 20 cm so it stays

- 3 stacked bricks would have a center of mass at (10 + 14 + 18) / 3 = 14 cm or 10 + 2*2, this is also < 20 cm so it stays

- 4 stacked bricks would have a center of mass at (10 + 14 + 18 + 22)/4 = 16 cm or 10 + 2*3, this is also < 20 cm so it stays

- 5 stacked bricks would have a center of mass at (10 + 14 + 18 + 22 + 26)/5 = 18 cm or 10 + 2*4, this is also < 20 cm so it stays

- 6 stacked bricks would have a center of mass at (10 + 14 + 18 + 22 + 26 + 28)/5 = 20 cm or 10 + 2*5, this is also <= 20 cm so it stays before tipping over.

- The 7th brick would make everything fall down.

How far did the football player run if it took them 30 s running at 25m/s?​
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 750 \ meters}}

Explanation:

Distance can be found by multiplying the speed by the time.

d=s*t

The speed is 25 meters per second. The time is 30 seconds.

s=25 \ m/s \\t= 30 \ s

Substitute the values into the formula.

d=25 \ m/s * 30 \ s

Multiply. Note the seconds, or "s" will cancel each other out.

d= 25 \ m * 30

d= 750 \ m

The football player ran 750 meters.
