Answer:
The puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping
Explanation:
As the puck is accelerated by the spring, the kinetic energy of the puck equals the elastic potential energy of the spring.
So, 1/2mv² = 1/2kx² where m = mass of puck = 39.2 g = 0.0392 g, v = velocity of puck, k = spring constant = 59 N/m and x = compression of spring = 1.3 cm = 0.013 cm.
Now, since the puck has an initial velocity, v before it slides up the inclined surface, its loss in kinetic energy equals its gain in potential energy before it stops. So
1/2mv² = mgh where h = vertical height puck moves and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².
Substituting the kinetic energy of the puck for the potential energy of the spring, we have
1/2kx² = mgh
h = kx²/2mg
= 59 N/m × (0.013 m)²/(0.0392 kg × 9.8 m/s²)
= 0.009971 Nm/0.38416 N
= 0.0259 m
= 2.59 cm
≅ 2.6 cm
So the puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping
True, the water would eventually move from solid back to liquid form because of the heat.<span />
Answer:
wendy can travel 147 km in 3 hr if the speed is costant
For an inelastic collision where coefficient of restitution,e, is equal to 0, the momentum is conserved but not the kinetic energy. So, there is addition or elimination of kinetic energy.
On the otherhand, when e = 1, like for an elastic collision, kinetic energy and momentum is conserved. Thus, the system's kinetic energy is unchanged.
