This statement is true. The point located at the geometric center of an object is indeed called the object's center of gravity. Center of gravity is the average of the weight of a resultant of the parallel forces, including all the particles that is passing through its body.

A spring-loaded toy gun is used to shoot a ball of mass 1.5 kg straight up in the air, as shown. The spring has spring constant
asambeis [7]

Answer:

Part a)

U = 15.5 J

Part b)

h = 1.05 m

Part c)

v = 4.55 m/s

Explanation:

Part a)

Initial potential energy stored in the spring is given by

U = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

now we have

k = 777 N/m

x = 20.0 cm

now from above formula we will have

U = \frac{1}{2}(777)(0.20)^2

U = 15.5 J

Part b)

By mechanical energy conservation law we can say that initial spring potential energy stored = final gravitational potential energy at the top position

\frac{1}{2}kx^2 = mgh

15.5 = 1.5(9.8)h

h = 1.05 m

So maximum height from gun is 1.05 m

Part c)

For muzzle velocity of the ball we can use the energy conservation again

According to which the final kinetic energy of the ball = initial spring energy stored in it

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

(\frac{1}{2})(1.5 v^2) = 15.5

v = v = 4.55 m/s

What does it mean that are bodies are in osmotic equilibrium but chemical and electrical disequilibrium? Why? What molecules are
Whitepunk [10]

Explanation:

The point is that water is moving smoothly but that the solutes are not.Even though the containers are chemically different (chemical disequilibrium), once all the solutes in one container are contrasted to all the solutes in another container, both have the same total solutes concentrations (this means that they are in osmotic balance).
