A child bounces in a harness suspended from a door frame by three elastic bands. If each elastic band stretches 0.300 m while su
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

The force constant for each elastic band is 77.93 N/m

Explanation:

Hooke's law of a spring or an elastic band gives the relation between elastic force (Fe) and stretching (x), the magnitude of that force is:

F_{e}= kx (1)

With k, the elastic force constant. The three elastic bands support the child’s weight (W) and maintain him at rest, so by Newton’s second law for one of the elastic bands:

\sum F=0 (2)

\frac{W}{3}-F_{e}=0\Rightarrow F_{e}=\frac{W}{3} (3)

Using (1) on (3):

kx=\frac{W}{3}\Rightarrow k=\frac{mg}{3x}(4)

k=\frac{7.15\,kg*9.81\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}}{3*0.300\,m}\simeq\mathbf{77.93\frac{N}{m}}

Two spheres having masses M and 2M and radii R and 3R, respectively, are released from rest when the distance between their cent
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{3R}}

v_1 = 2\sqrt{\frac{GM}{3R}}

Explanation:

As we know by energy conservation that change in gravitational potential energy of the system = change in kinetic energy of the two ball

So here we can say

-\frac{GM(2M)}{12R} + 0 = -\frac{GM(2M)}{4R} + \frac{1}{2}Mv_1^2 + \frac{1}{2}(2M)v_2^2

Also since there is no external force on the system of two masses so here total momentum of the two balls will remains conserved

0 = Mv_1 + 2Mv_2

v_1 = -2v_2

now we have

\frac{GM^2}{2R} - \frac{GM^2}{6R} = \frac{1}{2}M(-2v_2)^2 + \frac{1}{2}(2M)v_2^2

\frac{GM^2}{3R} = Mv_2^2

v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{3R}}

v_1 = 2\sqrt{\frac{GM}{3R}}

An electron is released from rest in a unifor electric field and accelerates to the north at a rate of 145 m/s^2. What is the ma
julsineya [31]

Answer:

E = 8.26*10⁻¹⁰ N/C, due south.

Explanation:

  • Assuming no other forces acting on the electron than the electrostatic force due to the electric field, we can apply Newton's 2nd law as follows:

       F = -eE =ma (1)

  • Solving for E, we can find its magnitude as follows:

       E =\frac{m*a}{e} = \frac{9.1e-31 kg*145m/s2}{1.6e-19C} = 8.26e-10 N/C (1)

  • The direction of the electric field is by definition the one that would take a positive test charge, so if the electron is accelerated to the north, the electric field would exactly oppose to this direction, so it is directed due south.
