Answer:

a) 0.66J

b) -0.66J

c) 206N/m

Explanation:

The change of gravitational potencial energy is given by:

E_g=m*g*h\\E_g=5.2*10^{-3}*9.8*13\\E_g=0.66J

Because of energy conservation the elastic potencial energy was converted completely to gravitational so:

E_e-E_g=0\\E_e=-E_g\\E_e=-0.66J

The elastic potencial energy is given by:

E_e=\frac{1}{2}k*x^2\\\\-0.66=-\frac{1}{2}K*(8*10^{-2})\\\\K=206N/m

How would you explain photosynthesis to a new student in class
Trava [24]
Photosynthesis is the process by which plants and other things make food. It is a chemical process that uses sunlight to turn carbon dioxide into sugars that the cell can use as energy. As well as plants, many kinds of algae, protists and bacteria use it to get food.

To test the performance of its tires, a car travels along a perfectly flat (no banking) circular track of radius 130 m. The car
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

0.739

Explanation:

If we treat the four tire as single body then

W ( weight of the tyre ) =  mass × acceleration due to gravity (g)

the body has a tangential acceleration = dv/dt = 5.22 m/s², also the body has centripetal acceleration to the center = v² / r

where v is speed 25.6 m/s and r is the radius of the circle

centripetal acceleration = (25.6 m/s)² / 130 = 5.041 m/s²

net acceleration of the body = √ (tangential acceleration² + centripetal acceleration²) = √ (5.22² + 5.041²) = 7.2567 m/s²

coefficient of static friction between the tires and the road = frictional force / force of normal

frictional force = m × net acceleration / m×g

where force of normal = weight of the body in opposite direction

coefficient of static friction = (7.2567 × m) / (9.81 × m)

coefficient of static friction = 0.739
