The type of surfaces involves and how hard the surfaces push together.
Answer:
a) 70,560 J
b) 88.2 N/m
Explanation:
The spring potential will equal the change in gravity potential
PS = PE = mgh = 80(9.8)(100 - 10) = 70,560 J
PS = ½kx²
k = 2PS/x² = 2(70560)/(100 - 50 - 10)² = 88.2 N/m
Answer:
Explanation:
Remark
This is a momentum question. Both cars are sitting still (v1 and v2 are both 0) to start with). When the spring is sprung), they both move but in opposite directions.
Let us say that v4 is minus.
Equation
0 = m3*v3 - m4* v4
Givens
m3 = 1750 kg
m4 = 1000 kg
v3 = 4 m/s
Solution
m3*4m/s - m4*x = 0
1750 * 4 - 1000*x = 0
1750 * 4 = 1000x
7000 = 1000 x
7000/1000 = x
x = 7 m/s
Ok this is hard but I think the answer is 34
The first step of the scientific method is to MAKE OBSERVATIONS
