Explanation:

chemical changes

>produce new substances w/ different chemical structure/ properties

> thermal energy can be used to BREAK bonds (endothermic)

>thermal energy can be transferred to a chem rxn to help form new products (endothermic)

> heat can be released by an exothermic chemical reaction (excess energy- the total energy used to break bonds is less than energy released in forming new bonds)

physical changes

>does not result in new substances (typically changes in state- solid, liquid, gas)

> thermal energy can be transferred to EVAPORATE water (add thermal E... water (liquid) to steam (gas)) or FREEZE water (remove thermal E... water (liquid) to ice (solid))

a train is moving with an initial velocity of 30 m/s, the brakes are applied so as to produce a uniform acceleration of -1.5 m/s

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Time \ in \ which \ train \ will \ come \ to \ rest = 20 \ sec}$

Given:

Initial velocity (u) = 30 m/s

Final speed (v) = 0 m/s

Acceleration (a) = - 1.5 m/,s²

To Find:

Time in which train will come to rest (t).

Explanation:

$\sf From \ equation \ of \ motion: \\ \sf \implies \bold{v = u + at} \\ \\ \sf Substituting \ value \ of \ v, \ u \ and \ a: \\ \sf \implies 0 = 30 + ( - 1.5)(t) \\ \sf \implies 0 = 30 - 1.5(t) \\ \sf \implies 30 - 1.5(t) = 0 \\ \\ \sf Subtract \: 30 \: from \: both \: sides: \\ \sf \implies (30 - \boxed{ \sf 30}) - 1.5(t) = \boxed{ \sf - 30} \\ \\ \sf 30 - 30 = 0 : \\ \sf \implies - 1.5(t) = - 30 \\ \\ \sf Divide \: both \: sides \: of \: - 1.5(t) = - 30 \: by \: - 1.5 : \\ \sf \implies \frac{ - 1.5(t)}{ \boxed{ \sf - 1.5}} = \frac{ - 30}{ \boxed{ \sf -1.5 }} \\ \\ \sf \frac{ \cancel{ \sf 1.5}}{\cancel{ \sf 1.5}} = 1 : \\ \sf \implies t = \frac{ - 30}{ - 1.5} \\ \\ \sf \frac{ - 30}{ - 1.5} = \frac{\cancel{ \sf 1.5} \times 20}{\cancel{ \sf 1.5}} = 20 : \\ \sf \implies t = 20 \: sec$

So,

Time in which train will come to rest = 20 seconds

When the acceleration of a mass on a spring is zero, the velocity is at a

Sergeu [11.5K]

1) Maximum

2) Maximum

Explanation:

The force acting on a mass on a spring is given by Hooke's law; in magnitude:

$F=kx$

where

F is the force

k is the spring constant

x is the displacement

Also we know from Newton's second law that we can write

$F=ma$

where

m is the mass

a is the acceleration

So we can write the equation as

$ma=kx$ (1)

From this relationship, we see that the acceleration is directly proportional to the displacement.

On the other hand, we know that the total mechanical energy of the system mass-spring is constant, and it is given by

$E=\frac{1}{2}kx^2+\frac{1}{2}mv^2=const.$ (2)

where the first term is the elastic potential energy while the second term is the kinetic energy, and where

v is the velocity of the mass

From eq. (2), it is clear that when displacement increases, velocity decreases, and vice-versa; however, from eq.(1) we also know that acceleration is proportional to the displacement.

Therefore this means that:

- When acceleration increases, velocity decreases

- When acceleration decreases, velocity increases

Therefore, the two answers here are:

- When the acceleration of a mass on a spring is zero, the velocity is at a maximum

When the velocity of a mass on a spring is zero, the acceleration is at a maximum
