A(n) 131 g ball is dropped from a height

Physics

Answer:

26.59 N/m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) = 131 g

Extention (e) = 4.82755 cm

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Spring constant (K) =?

Next, we shall convert 131 g to Kg. This can be obtained as follow:

1000 g = 1 Kg

Therefore,

131 g = 131 g × 1 Kg / 1000 g

131 g = 0.131 Kg

Thus, 131 g is equivalent to 0.131 Kg.

Next, we shall the force exerted by the ball on the spring. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 0.131 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = ma

F = 0.131 × 9.8

F = 1.2838 N

Next, we shall convert 4.82755 cm to metre (m)

This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

4.82755 cm = 4.82755 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

4.82755 cm = 0.0482755 m

Thus, 4.82755 cm is equivalent to 0.0482755 m

Finally, we shall determine the spring constant as follow:

Force (F) = 1.2838 N

Extention (e) = 0.0482755 m

Spring constant (K) =?

F = Ke

1.2838 = K × 0.0482755

Divide both side by 0.0482755

K = 1.2838 / 0.0482755

K = 26.59 N/m

Thus the spring constant is 26.59 N/m

The cylinder valve is open and the gas is collected and atmospheric pressure
jok3333 [9.3K]

Less gas will be collected because some of the gases will escape from the open cylinder valve.

Cylinders used to store carbon dioxide will have thicker walls than those of butane because of higher pressures.

<h3>What are compressed gases?</h3>

Compressed gases are gases which are compressed under high pressure in gas cylinders.

Cylinder valves are used to reduce the pressure of the compressed gases and in the process, some of the gas molecules escape.

Since the cylinder valve is open and the gas is collected at atmospheric pressure, less gas will be collected because some of the gases will escape.

Since, the carbon dioxide not liquefy under pressure compared to butane, the cylinders used to store carbon dioxide will have thicker walls than those of butane.

How much energy is needed to raise a 50kg block up from the ground to a height of 5 meters?​
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

The answer to your question is    Pe = 2452.5 J

Explanation:

Data

mass = 50 kg

height = 5 m

gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Process

The energy of this process is Potential energy which is proportional to the mass of the body, the gravity and the height of the body.

           Pe = mgh

Substitution

           Pe = (50)(5)(9.81)

Simplification

           Pe = 2452.5 J
