A spring of negligible mass and force constant k = 410 N/m is hung vertically, and a 0.200 kg pan is suspended from its lower en

d. A butcher drops a 2.5 kg steak onto the pan from a height of 0.50 m. The steak makes a totally inelastic collision with the pan and sets the system into vertical SHM
1. What is the speed of the pan and steak immediately after the collision?

2. What is the amplitude of the subsequent motion?

3. What is the period of that motion?

Answer:

1) 2.9m/s

2)0.235cm

3)0.509s

Explanation:

1. moments are conserved, when the steak hits the pan:

velocity 'v' of the steak:

v = √(2gh) = √(2*9.81*0.5) = 3.13 m/s

velocity pan + steak is

v = $m_1v_1/(m_1+m_2)$ = 2.5*3.13/(2.7) = <u>2.9 m/s </u>

<u />

2.initial kinetic energy of pan + steak = spring energy

1/2 mv² = 1/2 kA²

where, A = amplitude

2.7 x 2.9² = 410 x A²

A²=22.707/410

A = 0.235 cm

3. T = 2π√(m/k) = 2π√(2.7/410) = 0.509 s

Therefore, the period of that motion is 0.509s

What is the critical angle of light traveling from benzene (n=1.501) into air?

Taya2010 [7]

The critical angle formula should be: sin^-1(1/n)

where "n" is 1.501 into the air

<span>The critical angle of light travelling from benzene, happens because the larger angles of incidence from the inside of the benzene has experienced the total internal reflection. </span>

Monochromatic light passes through a double slit, producing interference, the distance between the slit centres is 1.2 mm and th

Alik [6]

Answer:

The wavelength of the light is $7200\ \AA$ .

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance between the slit centers d= 1.2 mm

Distance between constructive fringes $\beta= 0.3\ cm$

Distance between fringe and screen D= 5 m

We need to calculate the wavelength

Using formula of width

$\beta=\dfrac{D\lambda}{d}$

Put the value into the formula

$0.3\times10^{-2}=\dfrac{5\times\lambda}{1.2\times10^{-3}}$

$\lambda=\dfrac{0.3\times10^{-2}\times1.2\times10^{-3}}{5}$

$\lambda=7.2\times10^{-7}\ m$

$\lambda=7200\ \AA$

Hence, The wavelength of the light is $7200\ \AA$ .

Two 0.20-kg balls, moving at 4 m/s east, strike a wall. Ball A bounces backwards at the same speed. Ball B stops. Which statemen

muminat

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass $m=0.20kg$

Velocity $v=4m/s$

Generally the equation for momentum for Ball A is mathematically given by

Initial Momentum

$M_{a1}=mV$

$M_{a1}=0.2*4$

$M_{a1}=0.8$

Final Momentum

$M_{a2}=-0.8kgm/s$

Therefore

$\triangle M_a=-1.6kgm/s$

Generally the equation for momentum for Ball B is mathematically given by

Initial Momentum

$M_{b1}=mV$

$M_{b1}=0.2*4$

$M_{b1}=0.8$

Final Momentum

$M_{b2}=-0 kgm/s$

Therefore

$|\triangle M_a|>|\triangle Mb|$

Option A
