Answer: No

Explanation:

Laser can cut many things,

its cutting is so popular largely because of its versatility. Laser cutterscan cut a wide variety of materials – anything from paper, wood, cork, acrylic and foam to different types of metals. Still, there are some materials that would seemingly fit well into this list but should never be cut using a laser cutter.

A cart with mass m vibrating at the end of a spring has an extra block added to it when its displacement is x=+A. What should th

Pavel [41]

Answer:

The block's mass should be $3m$

Explanation:

Given:

Cart with mass $m$

From the conservation of energy before mass is added,

$\frac{1}{2} mv^{2} = \frac{1}{2} kA^{2}$

Where $A =$ amplitude of spring mass system, $k =$ spring constant

$A = v\sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }$

Now new mass $M$ is added to the system,

$\frac{1}{2} (m +M ) v^{2} = \frac{1}{2} k A^{2}$

$A = v \sqrt{\frac{m +M }{k} }$

Here, given in question frequency is reduced to half so we can write,

$f' = \frac{f}{2}$

Where $f =$ frequency of system before mass is added, $f' =$ frequency of system after mass is added.

$\omega ' = \frac{\omega}{2}$

$\sqrt{\frac{k}{m +M} } = \frac{\sqrt{\frac{k}{m} } }{2}$

$\frac{k}{m +M } = \frac{k}{4m}$

$M = 3m$

Therefore, the block's mass should be $3m$

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

The separation between the charges was decreased by a factor of 0.2

Explanation:

The Coulomb's force between two charges is given by;

$F = \frac{kq^2}{r^2} \\\\let \ kq^2 \ be \ constant\\\\F_1r_1^2 = F_2r_2^2\\\\r_2^2 = \frac{F_1r_1^2}{F_2} \\\\increasing \ the \ force \ between \ them \ by \ factor \ of \ 25\\\\(F_2 = 25F_1)\\\\r_2^2 = \frac{F_1r_1^2}{25F_1}\\\\r_2^2 = \frac{r_1^2}{25}\\\\r_2 = \sqrt{\frac{r_1^2}{25} }\\\\ r_2 = \frac{r_1}{5}$
