A pair of toy freight cars, one twice the mass of the other, fly apart when a compressed spring that joins them is released. Acc

saul85 [17]

Answer:

greater acceleration is experienced by the car with lower mass

Explanation:

Since both the toys are connected by same spring so the force due to spring on both the toys will be same and it is given as

$F = kx$

now we know by Newton's II law

$F = ma$

so here we have

$a = \frac{F}{m}$

here we have same force on both the blocks

so acceleration will be more if mass is less

so greater acceleration is experienced by the car with lower mass

Is a spring stores 5 J of energy when its conpresses by 0.5 m what is the spring constant of the spring?

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

k = 40 N/m

Explanation:

A spring's energy is given:

$U = 0.5kx^2$

U is the energy in the spring, k is the spring constant and x is the spring displacement.

We are told that the spring stores 5J of energy, therefore, U = 5J. We are also told that the spring is compressed by 0.5m, so the spring x = 0.5m

$5 J = 0.5k(0.5m)^2\\5J = 0.5k(0.25m^2)\\5J = k*(0.125)m^2\\\\k = 5J/(0.125)m^2\\k = 40 N/m$

k = 40 N/m

Hope this helps!

Which of the following is MOST useful to scientists in measuring the size of asteroids?

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:c-The gravitational effect when spacecraft flies close to the asteriod

Explanation:

Gravitational effect on the spacecraft gives an estimate that how big is the asteroid by experiencing its gravitational pull.

The amount of extra thrust required to maintain the trajectory of the spacecraft during its motion hints at the scientist about the size of the asteroid.

Gravitational pull is directly proportional to the mass of object so greater the mass, greater will be the pull.

A student (m = 68 kg) falls freely from rest and strikes the ground. During the collision with the ground, he comes to rest in a

Gnesinka [82]

Answer:

5.7141 m

Explanation:

Here the potential and kinetic energy will balance each other

$mgh=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gh}$

This is the initial velocity of the system and the final velocity is 0

t = Time taken = 0.04 seconds

F = Force = 18000 N

a = Acceleration

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Equation of motion

$v=u+at\\\Rightarrow a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

From Newton's second law

$F=ma\\\Rightarrow F=m\frac{v-u}{t}\\\Rightarrow 18000=68\frac{0-\sqrt{2gh}}{0.04}\\\Rightarrow \frac{18000}{68}\times 0.04=-\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times h}\\\Rightarrow 10.58823=-\sqrt{2\times 9.81\times h}$

Squarring both sides

$112.11061=2\times 9.81\times h\\\Rightarrow h=\frac{112.11061}{2\times 9.81}\\\Rightarrow h=5.7141\ m$

The height from which the student fell is 5.7141 m
