Answer:

a. at either A or B

Explanation:

Kinetic energy may be defined as the energy of the system or an object which is due to its velocity of the object it possess.

In the context, an object having mass  is attached to spring which is vertical and the object moves up and down due to spring effect between points A and B. Now these points A and B are the extreme points after which the object bounces back.

At point A and B, the velocity of the object becomes zero and hence the kinetic energy of a body varies directly proportional to its velocity.

                  i.e. Kinetic energy $= \frac{1}{2} \text{mass} \times (\text{ velocity})^2$

The radius of curvature of a spherical mirror is 20cm.What is its focal length?
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

\boxed{\sf Focal \ length = 10 \ cm}

Given:

Radius of curvature (R) of a spherical mirror = 20

To Find:

Focal length (f)

Explanation:

Formula:

\boxed{ \bold{\sf Focal \ length \ (f) = \frac{Radius \ of \ curvature \ (R)}{2}}}

Substituting value of R in the equation:

\sf \implies f =  \frac{20}{2}

\sf \implies f = \frac{ \cancel{2} \times 10}{ \cancel{2}}

\sf \implies f = 10 \: cm

A point P1 is located by the vector A = (3.74)î + (1.64)ĵ and a point P2 is located by the vector B = (1.60)î + (3.66)ĵ. The vec
seropon [69]

Answer:

\vec{C} = ( \ - 2.14 \ , \ 2.02 \ )

Explanation:

The vector that point from point P1 to point P2 its found simply by taking the vector at which point P2 its located and subtracting the vector at which point P1 its located:

\vec{C} = \vec{B} - \vec{A}

So:

\vec{C} = ( \ 1.60 \ , \ 3.66 \ ) - ( \ 3.74 \ , \ 1.64 \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ 1.60 \ - \ 3.74 \ , \ 3.66 \ - \ 1.64 \ )

\vec{C} = ( \ - 2.14 \ , \ 2.02 \ )

A 30-mm-diameter copper rod is 1 m long with a yield strength of 70 MPa. Determine the axial force necessary to cause the diamet
ivolga24 [154]

Explanation:

Given data:

d = 30 mm = 0.03 m

L = 1m

S_{y} = 70 Mpa

Δd = -0.0001d

Axial force = ?

validity of elastic deformation assumption.

Solution:

O'₂ = Δd/d = (-0.0001d)/d = -0.0001

For copper,

v = 0.326      E = 119×10³ Mpa

O'₁ = O'₂/v = (-0.0001)/0.326 = 306×10⁶

∵δ = F.L/E.A    and σ = F/A so,

σ = δ.E/L = O'₁ .E = (306×10⁻⁶).(119×10³) = 36.5 MPa

F = σ . A = (36.5 × 10⁻⁶) . (π/4 × (0.03)²) = 25800 KN

S_{y} = 70 MPa > σ = 36.5 MPa

∵ elastic deformation assumption is valid.

so the answer is

F = 25800 K N            and     S_{y} > σ
