A 3.0 kg object is loaded into a toy spring gun, and the spring has a spring constant 750N/m. The object compresses the spring b

y 8.0 cm. The gun is tilted at an angle 30.0 degrees above the horizontal.
a. Once the ball is launched, is the minimum kinetic energy greater than or equal to zero? Explain your reasoning.
b. How high does the object go (relative to its height as it leaves the gun)?

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of object, m = 3 kg

spring constant, K = 750 n/m

compression, x = 8 cm = 0.08 m

angle of gun, θ = 30°

(a) As the ball is launched, it has some velocity due to the compression in the spring, so it has some kinetic energy.

(b) Let v be th evelocity of ball at the tim eof launch.

by using the conservation of energy

1/2 Kx² = 1/2 mv²

750 x 0.08 x 0.08 = 3 x v²

v = 1.265 m/s

By use of the formula of maximum height

h = \frac{v^{2}Sin^{2}\theta}{2g}

h = \frac{1.265^{2}Sin^{2}30}{2\times 9.8}

h = 0.02 m

h = 2 cm

Artemon [7]

Answer:

0.14 J

Explanation:

The maximum velocity is the amplitude times the angular frequency.

vmax = Aω

ω = vmax / A

ω = (3.2 m/s) / (0.06 m)

ω = 53.3 rad/s

For a spring-mass system:

ω = √(k / m)

ω² = k / m

k = ω²m

k = (53.3 rad/s)² (0.050 kg)

k = 142 N/m

The elastic potential energy is:

EE = ½ kx²

EE = ½ (142 N/m) (0.044 m)²

EE = 0.14 J

Annette [7]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Let m be mass of the object and v be speed of object b.

Kinetic Energy of B = 1/2 mv^2

Kinetic Energy of A = 1/2 m(2v)^2

= 2 mv^2

= 4 (1/2 mv^2)

= 4 × Kinetic Energy of B

Hence Object A has four times the kinetic energy of object B (<em>A</em><em>n</em><em>s</em><em> </em><em>B</em><em>)</em>

The amount of energy that must be absorbed or lost to raise or lower the temperature of 1 g of liquid water by 1°c _____.
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer:

4.2 J

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity: This is defined as the amount of a heat required to rise a unit mass of a substance through a temperature of 1 K

From specific heat capacity,

Q = cmΔt.............................. Equation 1

Where Q = amount of energy absorbed or lost, c = specific heat capacity of water, m = mass of water, Δt = Temperature rise.

Given: m = 1 g = 0.001 kg, Δt = 1 °C

Constant : c = 4200 J/kg.°C

Substitute into equation 1

Q = 0.001×4200(1)

Q = 4.2 J.

Hence the energy absorbed or lost = 4.2 J

A truck is parked at the bottom of a hill. It moves from the bottom of a hill
Marat540 [252]

Answer:

C

Explanation:

potential energy is stored energy that an object has due to its position or chemical composition. Since the truck has the possibility to move down the hill when it is at the top of the hill, it has a great amount of potential energy, howver when its at the bottom of the hill, it doesn’t have the possibility to move or can move v little due to its positions,  therefore it has little to no potienatal energy.
