A 2.00 kg block on a horizontal floor is attached to a horizontal spring that is initially compressed 0.0300 m . The spring has

force constant 815 N/m . The coefficient of kinetic friction between the floor and the block is μk=0.40. The block and spring are released from rest and the block slides along the floor.
Required:
What is the speed of the block when it has moved a distance of 0.0200 m from its initial position? (At this point the spring is compressed 0.0100 m.)

Answer:

v = 0.41 m/s

Explanation:

  • In this case, the change in the mechanical energy, is equal to the work done by the fricition force on the block.
  • At any point, the total mechanical energy is the sum of the kinetic energy plus the elastic potential energy.
  • So, we can write the following general equation, taking the initial and final values of the energies:

       \Delta K + \Delta U = W_{ffr}  (1)

  • Since the block and spring start at rest, the change in the kinetic energy is just the final kinetic energy value, Kf.
  • ⇒ Kf = 1/2*m*vf²  (2)
  • The change in the potential energy, can be written as follows:

       \Delta U = U_{f}  - U_{o}  = \frac{1}{2} * k * (x_{f} ^{2} - x_{0} ^{2} ) (3)

       where k = force constant = 815 N/m

       xf = final displacement of the block = 0.01 m (taking as x=0 the position

      for the spring at equilibrium)

      x₀ = initial displacement of  the block = 0.03 m

  • Regarding the work done by the force of friction, it can be written as follows:

       W_{ffr} = - \mu_{k}* F_{n} * \Delta x  (4)

       where μk = coefficient of kinettic friction, Fn = normal force, and Δx =

       horizontal displacement.

  • Since the surface is horizontal, and no acceleration is present in the vertical direction, the normal force must be equal and opposite to the force due to gravity, Fg:
  • Fn = Fg= m*g (5)
  • Replacing (5) in (4), and (3) and (4) in (1), and rearranging, we get:

        \frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2} = W_{ffr} - \Delta U = W_{ffr} - (U_{f} -U_{o})  (6)

        \frac{1}{2} * m* v^{2} = (- \mu_{k}* m*g* \Delta x)  -\frac{1}{2} * k * (x_{f} ^{2} - x_{0} ^{2} ) (7)

  • Replacing by the values of m, k, g, xf and x₀, in (7) and solving for v, we finally get:

    \frac{1}{2} * 2.00 kg* v^{2}  = (-0.4*2.00 kg*9.8m/s2*0.02m) +( (\frac{1}{2} *815 N/m)* (0.03m)^{2} - (0.01m)^{2}) = -0.1568 J + 0.326 J (8)

  • v =\sqrt{(0.326-0.1568}  =  0.41 m/s  (9)

An electron has an initial velocity of (19.0 j + 18.0 k) km/s and a constant acceleration of (3.00 ✕ 1012 m/s2)i in a region in
asambeis [7]

Answer:

E=(-17.08 i +7.2 j -7.6 k )N/C

Explanation:

v= (19.0j+18.k)km/s

a=3.0x10^{13}m/s^2

\beta= 400x10{-6}T

Electron information needed to solve the question:

m_e=9.11x10^{-31}kg

q=-1.6x10{-19}C

F=F_E+F_B=q*(E+Vx \beta)

F=m*a

m*a=q*(E+Vx\beta)

E=\frac{m*a}{q}-(Vx\beta )

E=\frac{9.11x10{-31}kg*3.0x10^{12}m/s^2}{-1.6x10{-19}C}-[(19.0x10^3mj+18.0x10^3m)xi(400x10^{-6}T)]

E=-i17.08N/C-[7.6(-k)+7.2(j)]N/C

E=(-17.08 i +7.2 j -7.6 k )N/C

Which statements below are true?
Ilya [14]

The correct statements are that the speed decreases as the distance decreases and speed increases as the distance increases for the same time.

Answer:

Option A and Option B.

Explanation:

Speed is defined as the ratio of distance covered to the time taken to cover that distance. So Speed = Distance/Time. In other words, we can also state that speed is directly proportional to the distance for a constant time. Thus, the speed will be decreasing as there is decrease in distance for the same time. As well as there will be increase in speed as the distance increases for the same time. So option A and option B are the true options. So if there is decrease in the distance due to direct proportionality the speed will also be decreasing. Similarly, if the distance increases, the speed will also be increasing.

Why is Jupiter's rotation dangerous for human survivability?
krok68 [10]

Answer:

1. Why is Jupiter's rotation dangerous for human survivability?

<h2>=> </h2>

<em><u>Jupiter is the fastest rotating planet in our solar system. One day lasts about 9.5 Earth hours. This creates powerful winds that can whip around the planet at more than 300 mph. About 75 miles below the clouds, you reach the limit of human exploration.</u></em>

2 .Why is Jupiter's planet axis tilt an issue for human survivability?

<h2>=></h2>

<em><u>Jupiter, like Venus, has an axial tilt of only 3 degrees, so there is literally no difference between the seasons. ... The length of each season is roughly three years. Jupiter is the fastest spinning planet in our Solar System, which causes the planet to flatten at the poles and bulge at the </u></em><em><u>equator.</u></em>

3.Why is the diameter of Jupiter an issue for human survivability?

<h2>=></h2>

<em><u>Since </u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u>The </u></em><em><u>Jupiter </u></em><em><u>is </u></em><em><u>so </u></em><em><u>huge </u></em><em><u>in </u></em><em><u>mass</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>,</u></em><em><u>The </u></em><em><u>central</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>force</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>toward</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>the </u></em><em><u>centre </u></em><em><u>will </u></em><em><u>be </u></em><em><u>high</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>and</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>we'll</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>be </u></em><em><u>forced</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>toward</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>it </u></em><em><u>causing</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>Several</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>problems</u></em><em><u>.</u></em>
