A 3 kg mass object is pushed 0.6 m into a spring with spring constant 210 N/m on a frictionless horizontal surface. Upon release

, the object moves across the surface until it encounters a rough incline. The object moves UP the incline and stops a height of 1.5 m above the horizontal surface.
(a) How much work must be done to compress the spring initially?
(b) Compute the speed of the mass at the base of the incline.
(c) How much work was done by friction on the incline?

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of spring,m=3 kg

Distance moved by object,d=0.6 m

Spring constant,k=210N/m

Height,h=1.5 m

a.Work done  to compress the spring initially=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}(210)(0.6)^2=37.8J

b.

By conservation law of energy

Initial energy of spring=Kinetic energy  of object

37.8=\frac{1}{2}(3)v^2

v^2=\frac{37.8\times 2}{3}

v=\sqrt{\frac{37.8\times 2}{3}}

v=5.02 m/s

c.Work done by friction on the incline,w_{friction}=P.E-spring \;energy

W_{friction}=3\times 9.8\times 1.5-37.8=6.3 J

Suppose that an Egyptian farmer claims to have discovered a linen burial cloth used during Egypt's Middle Kingdom some 4000 year
enyata [817]

Answer:

the cloth is old by 1,844 years

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

The half-life of C^(14) is 5730 years

Now

\lambda =1.210 × 10^-4 years^(-1)

Now

N(t) = Ce^{-\lambda\times t}

0.8 \times (N_0) = N_0 \times e^{-\lambda \times t}\\\\ln(0.8) = (-\lambda \times t)\\\\t = \frac{-(ln(0.8))}{\lambda}

\lambda = .000121,

so t = 1844 yrs

hence, the cloth is old by 1,844 years

Sally walks 10 meters forward and then 5 meters backwards. a) What is Sally’s displacement? Give magnitude (#) and direction – d
ra1l [238]

consider the forward direction as positive and backward direction as negative. hence displacement in froward direction will be taken as positive and displacement in backward direction will be taken as negative.

\underset{d_{1}}{\rightarrow}\\ = displacement in forward direction = 10 meters

\underset{d_{2}}{\rightarrow}\\ = displacement in backward direction = - 5  meters

\underset{d_{net}}{\rightarrow}\\ = net displacement

net displacement is given as

\underset{d_{net}}{\rightarrow}\\ = \underset{d_{1}}{\rightarrow}\\ + \underset{d_{2}}{\rightarrow}\\

\underset{d_{net}}{\rightarrow}\\ = 10 + (- 5)

\underset{d_{net}}{\rightarrow}\\ =  5 meters

Since net displacement is positive , and forward is positive direction of motion.

hence the displacement is 5 meters in forward direction.


b)

d₁ = distance traveled in forward direction = 10 meters

d₂ = distance traveled in backward direction = 5 meters

D = total distance traveled

total distance traveled is given as

D = d₁ + d₂

D = 10 + 5

D = 15 meters

The sputnik one satellite orbiting earth mass equals 5.98×10 to the 24th power kilograms in a circle of radius 6.96×10 to the si
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

7572 m/s

Explanation:

The force between two masses separated by a distance r is given as:

F=G\frac{m_1m_2}{r^2}

Where F is the attractive force between 2 masses, m1 and m2, r is the distance between the centres of the masses and G is the universal gravitation constant, which is 6.674*10^-11 Nm^2/kg^2

The mass of the earth (m_1) is far greater than the mass of the sputnik (m_2). Therefore m_1m_2=m_1. The mass of the sputnik is neglected, therefore:

F=G\frac{m_1}{r^2}=\frac{(6.674*10^{-11})(5.98*10^{24})}{(6.96*10^6)^2} = 8.2389N

But F is actually centripetal acceleration, a = v²/r

8.2389 = v^2 / 6.96*10^6\\v=7572m/s
