Answer: True

Explanation:

As the spring is compressed, it acumulates energy, and the spring "wants to release that energy". This acumulated energy, (potential energy) is called "elastic potential energy" because of the elastical nature of the spring, that when compressed it wants to return to the original shape. So the sentence is true

Adam uses a fixed pulley, such as the one shown below, to lift an object. Adam applies an input force to the pulley as he pulls

stira [4]

When Adam applies a ‘pull’ force on the pulley, there is an output force that the pulley lets out, directly pulling the object with it. We cannot always pull up objects with our bear hands, no matter how much force we apply. Which is why pulleys allow us to apply the force and pulleys do the work of pulling the objects for us, since work and force come hand in hand.

A 217 Ω resistor, a 0.875 H inductor, and a 6.75 μF capacitor are connected in series across a voltage source that has voltage a

Nataly [62]

For an AC circuit:

I = V/Z

V = AC source voltage, I = total AC current, Z = total impedance

Note: We will be dealing with impedances which take on complex values where j is the square root of -1. All phasor angles are given in radians.

For a resistor R, inductor L, and capacitor C, their impedances are given by:

$Z_{R}$ = R

R = resistance

$Z_{L}$ = jωL

ω = voltage source angular frequency, L = inductance

$Z_{C}$ = -j/(ωC)

ω = voltage source angular frequency, C = capacitance

Given values:

R = 217Ω, L = 0.875H, C = 6.75×10⁻⁶F, ω = 220rad/s

Plug in and calculate the impedances:

$Z_{R}$ = 217Ω

$Z_{L}$ = j(220)(0.875) = j192.5Ω

$Z_{C}$ = -j/(220×6.75×10⁻⁶) = -j673.4Ω

Add up the impedances to get the total impedance Z, then convert Z to polar form:

Z = $Z_{R}$ + $Z_{L}$ + $Z_{C}$

Z = 217 + j192.5 - j673.4

Z = (217-j480.9)Ω

Z = (527.6∠-1.147)Ω

Back to I = V/Z

Given values:

V = (30.0∠0+220t)V (assume 0 initial phase, and t = time)

Z = (527.6∠-1.147)Ω (from previous computation)

Plug in and solve for I:

I = (30.0∠0+220t)/(527.6∠-1.147)

I = (0.0569∠1.147+220t)A

To get the voltages of each individual component, we'll just multiply I and each of their impedances:

$v_{R}$ = I× $Z_{R}$

$v_{L}$ = I× $Z_{L}$

$v_{C}$ = I× $Z_{C}$

Given values:

I = (0.0569∠1.147+220t)A

$Z_{R}$ = 217Ω = (217∠0)Ω

$Z_{L}$ = j192.5Ω = (192.5∠π/2)Ω

$Z_{C}$ = -j673.4Ω = (673.4∠-π/2)Ω

Plug in and calculate each component's voltage:

$v_{R}$ = (0.0569∠1.147+220t)(217∠0) = (12.35∠1.147+220t)V

$v_{L}$ = (0.0569∠1.147+220t)(192.5∠π/2) = (10.95∠2.718+220t)V

$v_{C}$ = (0.0569∠1.147+220t)(673.4∠-π/2) = (38.32∠-0.4238+220t)V

Now we have the total and individual voltages as functions of time:

V = (30.0∠0+220t)V

$v_{R}$ = (12.35∠1.147+220t)V

$v_{L}$ = (10.95∠2.718+220t)V

$v_{C}$ = (38.32∠-0.4238+220t)V

Plug in t = 22.0×10⁻³s into these values and take the real component (amplitude multiplied by the cosine of the phase) to determine the real voltage values at this point in time:

V = 30.0cos(0+220(22.0×10⁻³)) = 3.82V

$v_{R}$ = 12.35cos(1.147+220(22.0×10⁻³)) = 11.8V

$v_{L}$ = 10.95cos(2.718+220(22.0×10⁻³)) = 3.19V

$v_{C}$ = 38.32cos(-0.4238+220(22.0×10⁻³)) = -11.2V

A spring with spring constant 15 N/m hangs from the ceiling. A ball is attached to the spring and allowed to come to rest. It is

olga nikolaevna [1]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Spring constant of the spring, k = 15 N/m

Amplitude of the oscillation, A = 7.5 cm = 0.075 m

Number of oscillations, N = 31

Time, t = 15 s

(a) Let m is the mass of the ball. The frequency of oscillation of the spring is given by :

$f=\dfrac{1}{2\pi}\sqrt{\dfrac{k}{m}}$

Total number of oscillation per unit time is called frequency of oscillation. Here, $f=\dfrac{31}{15}=2.06\ Hz$

$m=\dfrac{k}{4\pi^2f^2}$

$m=\dfrac{15}{4\pi^2\times 2.06^2}$

m = 0.0895 kg

m = 89 g

(b) The maximum speed of the ball that is given by :

$v_{max}=A\times \omega$

$v_{max}=A\times 2\pi f$

$v_{max}=0.075\times 2\pi \times 2.06$

$v_{max}=0.970\ m/s$

$v_{max}=97\ cm/s$

Hence, this is the required solution.

The theory of evolution is

tresset_1 [31]

one of several competing scientific models that all seem equally successful in explaining the nature of life on Earth

Explanation:

The theory of evolution is one of the several competing scientific models that all seems to successfully explain the nature of life on earth.
A theory is usually drawn from careful observation of scientific investigation.
Theories generally provides explanation into a phenomenon that occurs in nature.
They are products of careful scientific observations and experiments.
The theory of evolution is but one of them.
