Answer:

i. -4m

ii. 20m

Explanation:

The car travels 8m to the east, then travels 12m to the west which is the opposite of the east. Going west, the car travels 8m back to the origin point and then another 4m due west to make 12m. The displacement from the origin point is -4 (the negative sign shows the direction because displacement is a vector quantity)

Total distance = 8m going east + 8m back to origin + 4m west = 20m

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

The stored elastic energy of compressed spring

= 1 / 2 k X²

= .5 x 19.6 x (.20)²

= .392 J

b ) The stored potential energy will be converted into gravitational potential energy of the block earth system when the block will ascend along the incline . So change in the gravitational potential energy will be same as stored elastic potential energy of the spring that is .392 J .

c ) Let h be the distance along the incline which the block ascends.

vertical height attained ( H ) =h sin30

= .5 h

elastic potential energy = gravitational energy

.392 = mg H

.392 = 2 x 9.8 x .5 h

h = .04 m

4 cm .

Computers A and B implement the same ISA. Computer A has a clock cycle time of 200 ps and an effective CPI of 1.5 for some progr

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Computer A is 1.41 times faster than the Computer B

Explanation:

Assume that number of instruction in the program is 1

Clock time of computer A is $CT_{A} =200 ps$

Clock time of computer B is $CT_{B} =250 ps$

Effective CPI of computer A is $CPI_{A} =1.5$

Effective CPI of computer B is $CPI_{B} =1.7$

CPU time of A is

$CPU_{time}=instructions \times CPA_{A} \times CT_{A}\\CPU_{time}=1 \times 1.5 \times 200=300 sec$

CPU time of B is

$CPU_{time}=instructions \times CPA_{B} \times CT_{B}\\CPU_{time}=1 \times 1.7 \times 250=425 sec$

Hence Computer A is Faster by $\frac{425}{300} =1.41$

Computer A is 1.41 times faster than the Computer B

leva [86]

Answer:

Tangential speed, v = 2.64 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the puck, m = 0.5 kg

Tension acting in the string, T = 3.5 N

Radius of the circular path, r = 1 m

To find,

The tangential speed of the puck.

Solution,

The centripetal force acting in the string is balanced by the tangential speed of the puck. The expression for the centripetal force is given by :

$F=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{Fr}{m}}$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{3.5\ N\times 1\ m}{0.5\ kg}}$

v = 2.64 m/s

Therefore, the tangential speed of the puck is 2.64 m/s.

A small block of mass m on a horizontal frictionless surface is attached to a horizontal spring that has force constant k. The b

Rashid [163]

Answer:

$v_{max} = |d|\cdot \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }$

Explanation:

The maximum speed of the block occurs when spring has no deformation, that is, there is no elastic potential energy, which can be remarked from appropriate application of the Principle of Energy Conservation:

$\frac{1}{2}\cdot k \cdot d^{2} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2}$

$k \cdot d^{2} = m\cdot v^{2}$

$v_{max} = |d|\cdot \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} }$
