As a 15000 kg jet plane lands on an aircraft carrier, its tail hook snags a cable to slow it down. The cable is attached to a sp

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

60 m/s

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of energy,

The kinetic energy of the plane = Energy of store in the spring when the plane lands.

1/2mv² = 1/2ke²

making v the subject of the equation.

v = √(ke²/m).................... Equation 1

Where v = the plane landing speed, k = spring constant, e = extension. m = mass of the plane.

Given: m = 15000 kg, k = 60000 N/m, e = 30 m.

Substitute into equation 1

v = √(60000×30²/15000)

v = √(4×900)

v = √(3600)

v = 60 m/s.

Hence the plane's landing speed = 60 m/s

A toy cannon uses a spring to project a 5.24-g soft rubber ball. The spring is originally compressed by 5.01 cm and has a force

salantis [7]

Answer:

Speed will be equal to 1.40 m/sec

Explanation:

Mass of the rubber ball m = 5.24 kg = 0.00524 kg

Spring is compressed by 5.01 cm

So x = 5.01 cm = 0.0501 m

Spring constant k = 8.08 N/m

Frictional force f = 0.031 N

Distance moved by ball d = 15.8 cm = 0.158 m

Energy gained by spring

$KE=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 8.08\times 0.0501^2=0.0101J$

Energy lost due to friction

$W=Fd=0.031\times 0.158=0.0048J$

So remained energy to move the ball = 0.0101 - 0.0048 = 0.0052 J

This energy will be kinetic energy

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2=0.0052$

$\frac{1}{2}\times 0.00524\times v^2=0.0052$

v = 1.40 m/sec

The horizontal surface on which the block (mass 2.0 kg) slides is frictionless. The speed of the block before it touches the spr

ch4aika [34]

Answer:3.67 m/s

Explanation:

mass of block(m)=2 kg

Velocity of block=6 m/s

spring constant(k)=2 KN/m

Spring compression x=15 cm

Conserving Energy

energy lost by block =Gain in potential energy in spring

$\frac{m(v_1^2-v_2^2)}{2}=\frac{kx^2}{2}$

$2\left [ 6^2-v_2^2\right ]=2\times 10^3\times \left [ 0.15\right ]^2$

$v_2=3.67 m/s$
