Answer:
The ratio of the energy stored by spring #1 to that stored by spring #2 is 2:1
Explanation:
Let the weight that is hooked to two springs be w.
Spring#1:
Force constant= k
let x1 be the extension in spring#1
Therefore by balancing the forces, we get
Spring force= weight
⇒k·x1=w
⇒x1=w/k
Energy stored in a spring is given by where k is the force constant and x is the extension in spring.
Therefore Energy stored in spring#1 is,
⇒
⇒
Spring #2:
Force constant= 2k
let x2 be the extension in spring#2
Therefore by balancing the forces, we get
Spring force= weight
⇒2k·x2=w
⇒x2=w/2k
Therefore Energy stored in spring#2 is,
⇒
⇒
∴The ratio of the energy stored by spring #1 to that stored by spring #2 is 2:1
Answer:
Explanation:
= Force on one side of the door by first waiter = 257 N
= Force on other side of the door by second waiter
= distance of first force by first waiter from hinge = 0.567 m
= distance of second force by second waiter from hinge = 0.529 m
Since the door does not move. hence the door is in equilibrium
Using equilibrium of torque by force applied by each waiter
Explanation:
Given that,
Weight of the engine used to lift a beam, W = 9800 N
Distance, d = 145 m
Work done by the engine to lift the beam is given by :
W = F d
Let W' is the work must be done to lift it 290 m. It is given by :
Hence, this is the required solution.
