Answer:

k = 138440 N/m

Explanation:

given,

Mass of the car = 1200 Kg

speed of the car = 85 km/h

                            = 85 x 0.278 = 23.63 m/s

KE of the car

KE = \dfrac{1}{2} mv^2

Using Spring Energy Formula

KE_{spring}=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2

Using conservation of energy

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

k = \dfrac{mv^2}{x^2}

k = \dfrac{1200\times 23.63^2}{2.2^2}

    k = 138440 N/m

Spring stiffness constant of the spring is equal to k = 138440 N/m

Neporo4naja [7]
A motion security line is a system that is used to detect motion.
The input for the system is MOTION and the output is LIGHT. That is, when the system detects motion it switch on light.
Remember, an Input is the information that was inserted into a system while the output is the result of the processed information.

Three wires meet at a junction. Wire 1 has a current of 0.40 A into the junction. The current of wire 2 is 0.57 A out of the jun
AlekseyPX

Answer:

a. 1.56 × 10¹⁸ electrons per second

b. The electrons in wire 3 flow into the junction.

Explanation:

Here is the complete question

Three wires meet at a junction. Wire 1 has a current of 0.40 A into the junction. The current of wire 2 is 0.65 A out of the junction. (a) How many electrons per second move past a point in wire 3? (b) In which direction do the electrons move in wire 3 -- into or out of the junction?

Solution

(a) How many electrons per second move past a point in wire 3?

Using Kirchhoff's current law, at the junction, i₁ + i₂ + i₃ = 0 where i₁ = current in wire 1 = 0.40 A, i₂ = current in wire 2 = 0.65 A and  i₃ = = current in wire 3,

So, i₃ = -(i₁ + i₂)

taking current flowing into the junction as positive and those leaving as negative, i₁ = + 0.40 A and i₂ = -0.65 A

So, i₃ = -(i₁ + i₂)

i₃ = -(0.40 A + (-0.65 A))

i₃ = -(0.40 A - 0.65 A)

i₃ = -(-0.25 A)

i₃ = 0.25 A

Since i₃ = 0.25 C/s and we have e = 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C per electron, then the number of electrons flowing in wire 3 per second is i₃/e = 0.25 C/s ÷ 1.602 × 10⁻¹⁹ C per electron = 0.1561  × 10¹⁹ electrons per second = 1.561  × 10¹⁸ electrons per second ≅ 1.56 × 10¹⁸ electrons per second

(b) In which direction do the electrons move -- into or out of the junction?

Given that i₃ = + 0.25 A and that positive flows into the junction, thus, the electrons in wire 3 flow into the junction.

A 2.0 kg bucket is attached to a horizontal ideal spring and rests on frictionless ice. You have a 1.0 kg mass
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

x = A cos (w \sqrt{2y_{o}/g})

a) maximun  Ф= \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}  \frac{2 y_{o} }{g}  }

b) minimun     Ф = \frac{\pi }{2} - \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}  \frac{2 y_{o} }{g}  }

Explanation:

For this exercise let's use kinematics to find the time it takes for the mass to reach the floor

         y = y₀ + v₀ t - ½ g t²

   

as the mass is released from rest, its initial velocity is zero (vo = 0) and its height upon reaching the ground is zero (y = 0)

      0 = y₀ - ½ g t²

      t = \sqrt{2y_{o}/g}

The bucket-spring system has a simple harmonic motion, which is described by

     x = A cos wt

in this expression we assumed that the phase constant (Ф) is zero

let's replace the time

     x = A cos (w \sqrt{2y_{o}/g})

this is the distance where the system must be for the mass to fall into it.

a) The new system has a total mass of m ’= 3.0 kg, so its angular velocity changes

          w = \sqrt{k/m}

In the initial state

         w = \sqrt{k/2}

When the mass changes

         w ’= \sqrt{k/3}

the displacement in each case is

         x = A cos (wt)

for the new case

        x ’= A cos (w’t + Ф)

the phase constant is included to take into account possible changes due to the collision of the mass.

we see that this maximum expressions when the cosine is maximum

        cos (w´t + Ф) = 1

         w’t + Ф = 0

        Ф = -w ’t

        Ф = - \sqrt{k/3} \sqrt{2y_{o}/g}

       \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}  \frac{2 y_{o} }{g}  }

b) the function is minimun if

        cos (w’t + fi) = 0

        w’t + Ф = π / 2

        Ф = π / 2 - w ’t

        Ф = \frac{\pi }{2} - \sqrt{\frac{2}{3}  \frac{2 y_{o} }{g}  }
