What force is needed to give a 4800.0 kg truck an acceleration of 6.2 m/s2 over a level road? ​

Physics

Answer:

the force needed to give the truck the acceleration is 29,760 N.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of truck, m = 4800 kg

acceleration of the truck, a = 6.2 m/s²

The force needed to give the truck the acceleration is calculated as;

F = ma

F = 4800 x 6.2

F = 29,760 N

Therefore, the force needed to give the truck the acceleration is 29,760 N.

A large fake cookie sliding on a horizontal surface is attached to one end of a horizontal spring with spring constant k = 440 N
irinina [24]

Answer:

a) 0.275 m b) 13.6 J

Explanation:

In absence of friction, the energy is exchanged between the spring (potential energy) and the cookie (kinetic energy), so at any point, the sum of both energies must be the same:

E = ½ kx2 + ½ mv2

If we take as initial state, the instant when the cookie is passing through the spring’s equilibrium position, all the energy is kinetic, and we know that is equal to 20.0 J.

After sliding to the right, while is being acted on by a friction force, it came momentarily at rest. At this point, the initial kinetic energy, has become potential elastic energy, in part, and in thermal energy also, represented by the work done by the friction force.

So, for this state, we can say the following:

Ki = Uf + Eth = ½* k*d2 + Ff*d

20.0J = ½ *440 N/m* d2 + 11.0 *d, where d is the compressed length of the spring, which is equal to the distance travelled by the cookie before coming momentarily at rest.

We have a quadratic equation, that, after simplifying terms, can be solved as follows, applying the quadratic formula:

d = -0.05/2 +/- √0.090625 = -0.025 +/- 0.3 = 0.275 m (we take the positive root)

b) If we take as our new initial status the moment at which the spring is compressed, and the cookie is at rest, all the energy is potential:

E = Ui = 1/2 k d²

In this case, d is the same value that we got in a), i.e., 0.275 m (as the distance travelled by the cookie after going through the equilibrium point is the same length that the spring have been compressed).

E= 1/2 440 N/m . (0.275)m² = 16.6 J

When the cookie passes again through the equilibrium position, the energy will be in part kinetic, and in part, it will have become thermal energy again.

So, we can write the following equation:

Kf = Ui - Ff.d = 16.6 J - 11.0 (0.275) m = 16.6 J - 3.03 J = 13.6 J

How to use kinetic energy to calculate velocity
BartSMP [9]

As we know the formula of kinetic energy is

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

here given that

KE = 150,000 J

mass = 120 kg

we can use this to find speed

150,000 = \frac{1}{2} * 120 * v^2

v^2 = 2500

v = 50 m/s

So speed of above object is 50 m/s

If the frequency of the motion of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled, by what factor does the maximum speed of the oscillat
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

If the frequency of the motion of a simple harmonic oscillator is doubled , then maximum speed of the oscillator changes by the factor 2

Explanation:

We know that in a simple harmonic oscillator the maximum speed is given by

    v_{max} = Aw

  Here A is amplitude which is constant , so from above equation we see that maximum speed is directly proportional to w\\ of the oscillation .

  Since  w = 2 \pi f

      v_{max}^{|}/v_{max} = 2f/f = 2

  Where v_{max}^{|} is the maximum speed when frequency is doubled .
