To understand the meaning and possible applications of the work-energy theorem. In this problem, you will use your prior knowled

ge to derive one of the most important relationships in mechanics: the work-energy theorem. We will start with a special case: a particle of mass m moving in the x direction at constant acceleration a. During a certain interval of time, the particle accelerates from vi to vf, undergoing displacement s given by s=xf−xi.
A. Find the acceleration a of the particle.
B. Evaluate the integral W = integarvf,vi mudu.

Answer:

a) the acceleration of the particle is (  v_f² - v_i² ) / 2as

b) the integral W = \frac{1}{2}m( _f² - v_i² )

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

force on particle F = ma

displacement s = x_f - x_i

work done on the particle W = Fs = mas

we know that; change in energy = work done       { work energy theorem }

\frac{1}{2}m(  v_f² - v_i² ) = mas

\frac{1}{2}(  v_f² - v_i² ) = as

(  v_f² - v_i² ) = 2as

a = (  v_f² - v_i² ) / 2as

Therefore, the acceleration of the particle is (  v_f² - v_i² ) / 2as

b) Evaluate the integral W = \int\limits^{v_{f} }_{v_{i} } mvdv

W = \int\limits^{v_{f} }_{v_{i} } mvdv

W =m[\frac{v^{2} }{2} ]^{vf}_{vi}

W = \frac{1}{2}m( _f² - v_i² )

Therefore, the integral W = \frac{1}{2}m( _f² - v_i² )

Why wil an ice cube melt if it is compressed even if it remains at the same temp
Gnoma [55]
No, it will only melt if the temperature is lowered. If you compress it, it will change the shape, but it will not change the state it is in (i.e. solid).

A rubber ball of mass 18.5 g is dropped from a height of 1.90 m onto a floor. The velocity of the ball is reversed by the collis
kati45 [8]

Answer:

J=0.211kg.m/s

Explanation:

The impulse-momentum theorem states:

J=\Delta p\\J=m(v_a-v-b)\\where:\\m=mass\\v_a=velocity\_after\\v_b=velocity\_before

The velocity before the impact is given by:

(v_b)^2=2.a.\Delta y\\v_b=\sqrt{2*(9.8m/s^2)1.90m}=6.10m/s(-\hat{j})

For the velocity after the impact:

(v_f)^2=(v_a)^2+2.a.\Delta y\\(0)^2=(v_a)^2+2.(-9.8m/s^s).(1.45m)\\\\v_a=\sqrt{2*9.8m/s^2*1.45m}\\v_a=5.33m/s(\hat{j})

so:

J=18.5*10^{-3}kg(5.33m/s(\hat{j})-6.10m/s(-\hat{j}))\\\\J=18.5*10^{-3}kg(5.33m/s(\hat{j})+6.10m/s(\hat{j}))\\\\J=0.211kg.m/s

What would be formed if you had lots of atoms, all with one proton?
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

If you add or subtract a proton from the nucleus, you create a new element. If you add or subtract a neutron from the nucleus, you create a new isotope of the same element you started with. In a neutral atom, the number of positively charged protons in the nucleus is equal to the number of orbiting electrons.
