Answer:

a = 0.009 J

b = 0.19 m/s

c = 0.005 J and 0.004 J

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the object, m = 0.5 kg

Spring constant of the spring, k = 20 N/m

Amplitude of the motion, A = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Displacement of the system, x = 2 cm = 0.02 m

a

Total energy of the system, E =

E = 1/2 * k * A²

E = 1/2 * 20 * 0.03²

E = 10 * 0.0009

E = 0.009 J

b

E = 1/2 * k * A² = 1/2 * m * v(max)²

1/2 * m * v(max)² = 0.009

1/2 * 0.5 * v(max)² = 0.009

v(max)² = 0.009 * 2/0.5

v(max)² = 0.018 / 0.5

v(max)² = 0.036

v(max) = √0.036

v(max) = 0.19 m/s

c

V = ±√[(k/m) * (A² - x²)]

V = ±√[(20/0.5) * (0.03² - 0.02²)]

V = ±√(40 * 0.0005)

V = ±√0.02

V = ±0.141 m/s

Kinetic Energy, K = 1/2 * m * v²

K = 1/2 * 0.5 * 0.141²

K = 1/4 * 0.02

K = 0.005 J

Potential Energy, P = 1/2 * k * x²

P = 1/2 * 20 * 0.02²

P = 10 * 0.0004

P = 0.004 J

What safety factors should astronauts be aware of when collecting rock samples on the Moon?
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Explanation:

Astronauts face a wide range of dangers when maneuvering in space. Collecting rock samples requires breaking apart rocks on the moon's surface, which requires tools. These tools are sometimes small hammers or other times special drills. All of this process means moving and using force to break these rocks apart and every single movement can cause a mistake which can lead to a piece of the suit ripping or a failure in the machinery. Since there is no oxygen on the moon the tiniest failure in the suit can lead to the death of the astronaut. Therefore, having backup safety precautions, and quick repair scenarios is a must when collecting rock samples on the moon.

An eagle flying through the air is an example of _____.
Likurg_2 [28]
<span>So the question is what is an eagle flying trough the air an example of? Kinetic enegry, potential energy or released energy? So when we have a stationary object on some height h, that object has potential energy. When an object starts o change its altitude, the potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy. So the correct answer is kinetic energy because an eagle flying changes its height.</span>
