A spring is used to stop a 50-kg package which is moving down a 20º incline. The spring has a constant k = 30 kN/m and is held b
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

0.3 m

Explanation:

Initially, the package has both gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy.  The spring has elastic energy.  After the package is brought to rest, all the energy is stored in the spring.

Initial energy = final energy

mgh + ½ mv² + ½ kx₁² = ½ kx₂²

Given:

m = 50 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

h = 8 sin 20º m

v = 2 m/s

k = 30000 N/m

x₁ = 0.05 m

(50)(9.8)(8 sin 20) + ½ (50)(2)² + ½ (30000)(0.05)² = ½ (30000)x₂²

x₂ ≈ 0.314 m

So the spring is compressed 0.314 m from it's natural length.  However, we're asked to find the additional deformation from the original 50mm.

x₂ − x₁

0.314 m − 0.05 m

0.264 m

Rounding to 1 sig-fig, the spring is compressed an additional 0.3 meters.

What is the name of the force that is a combination of all forces that act on an object?
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

If the combination of all the forces acting on an object sums upto be zero, then the net force is known as <u>balanced force.</u>

If the combination of all the forces acting on an object is non-zero, then the net force is said to be <u>unbalanced force. </u>The unbalanced force causes the object change the state of rest or motion.

A particle with charge 5 . 0- µ C is placed at the corner of a cube. (Physics Help)? A particle with charge 5.0-µC is placed at
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Gauss law states that the electric flux through any closed surface is proportional to the net electric charge inside the surface. This is expressed mathematically in the form of:

Φ = Q / εo

Where,

Φ = the electric flux = unknown (which we have to find for)

Q = the net electric charge = 5.0 µC = 5 E-6 C

εo = the permittivity of free space = a constant value = 8.85 E-12 C^2 / N m^2

Plugging in the values into the equation will result in:

Φ = 5 E-6 C / (8.85 E-12 C^2 / N m^2)

Φ = 564,971.75 Wb = <span>5.6 x 10^5 Wb </span>
