An 8 kg cat is running 4 m/s. How much kinetic energy does it have?

Physics
1 answer:
Zepler [3.9K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer: Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)²

Kinetic energy = (1/2) (8 kg) (4 m/s)² =

 

                                 (4 kg) (16 m²/s²) =

                                  64  (kg-m/s²) (m) = 64 newton-m = 64 joules

  (about 17.6 pounds)

You have a light spring which obeys Hooke's law. This spring stretches 2.92 cm vertically when a 2.70 kg object is suspended fro
ehidna [41]

(a) 907.5 N/m

The force applied to the spring is equal to the weight of the object suspended on it, so:

F=mg=(2.70 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=26.5 N

The spring obeys Hook's law:

F=k\Delta x

where k is the spring constant and \Delta x is the stretching of the spring. Since we know \Delta x=2.92 cm=0.0292 m, we can re-arrange the equation to find the spring constant:

k=\frac{F}{\Delta x}=\frac{26.5 N}{0.0292 m}=907.5 N/m

(b) 1.45 cm

In this second case, the force applied to the spring will be different, since the weight of the new object is different:

F=mg=(1.35 kg)(9.8 m/s^2)=13.2 N

So, by applying Hook's law again, we can find the new stretching of the spring (using the value of the spring constant that we found in the previous part):

\Delta x=\frac{F}{k}=\frac{13.2 N}{907.5 N/m}=0.0145 m=1.45 cm

(c) 3.5 J

The amount of work that must be done to stretch the string by a distance \Delta x is equal to the elastic potential energy stored by the spring, given by:

W=U=\frac{1}{2}k\Delta x^2

Substituting k=907.5 N/m and \Delta x=8.80 cm=0.088 m, we find the amount of work that must be done:

W=\frac{1}{2}(907.5 N/m)(0.088 m)^2=3.5 J
