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

An object ends up at a final position of x=-55.25 meters after a displacement of -189.34 meters after a displacement of -189.34
Travka [436]

The initial position of the object was found to be 134.09 m.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As displacement is the measure of difference between the final and initial points. In other words, we can say that displacement can be termed as the change in the position of the object irrespective of the path followed by the object to change the path. So

Displacement = Final position - Initial position.

As the final position is stated as -55.25 meters and the displacement is also stated as -189.34 meters. So the initial position will be

Initial position of the object = Final position-Displacement

Initial position = -55.25 m - (-189.34 m) = -55.25 m + 189.34 m = 134.09 m.

Thus, the initial position for the object having a displacement of -189.34 m is determined as 134.09 m.

A 30 kg student drops down from the monkey bars. The acceleration due to gravity is -9.8 m/s^2. Neglecting air drag, what is the
Sholpan [36]

The net force on the student is A) -294 N

Explanation:

Neglecting air resistance, there is only one force acting on the student: the force of gravity, which is given by

F=mg

where

m is the mass of the student

g is the acceleration of gravity

In this problem, we have:

m = 30 kg is the mass of the student

g=-9.8 m/s^2 is the acceleration of gravity, where the negative sign means the direction is downward

Substituting, we find the force of gravity on the student:

F=(30)(-9.8)=-294 N

And since this is the only force acting on the student, it is also the net force on him.

To pull an old stump out of the ground, you and a friend tie two ropes to the stump. You pull on it with a force of 500 N to the
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

C. less than 950 N.

Explanation:

Given that

Force in north direction F₁ = 500 N

Force in the northwest F₂ = 450 N

Lets take resultant force R

The angle between force = θ

θ = 45°

The resultant force R

R=\sqrt{F_1^2+F_2^2+2F_1F_2cos\theta}

R=\sqrt{500^2+450^2+2\times 450\times 500\times cos\theta}

R= 877.89 N

Therefore resultant force is less than 950 N.

C. less than 950 N

Note- When these two force will act in the same direction then the resultant force will be 950 N.

Which type of relationship is formed when a megabat eats a fig and drops the
Alina [70]

The type of relationship formed when a megabat eats a fig and drops the seeds in a new location is COMENSALISM. It is an ecological interaction.

<h3>What is commensalism?</h3>

Commensalism is a type of ecological interaction in which one organism benefits (in this case, the tree)  and the other organism neither benefits nor harm (the megabat).

Mutualism is a type of ecological association in which both organisms benefit from such interaction.

Conversely, parasitism is a type of ecological interaction in which one organism benefits and the other organism is harmed.
