A toy rocket is launched straight up by using a spring. The rocket is initially pressed down on the spring so that the spring is

compressed by 9 cm. If the spring constant is 830 N/m and the mass of the rocket is 50 g, how high will the rocket fly?

Answer:

6.86 meters

Explanation:

Let the compression of the string be represented by x, and the height of projection of the toy rocket be represented by h.

So that;

x = 9 cm = 0.09 m

In its rest position (i.e before the launch), the spring has a stored potential energy which is given as;

PE = \frac{1}{2} Kx^{2}

    = \frac{1}{2} x 830 x (0.09)^{2}

    = 415 x 0.0081

    = 3.3615

The potential energy in the string = 3.36 Joules

Also,

PE = mgh

where: m is the mass, g is the gravitational force and h the height.

m = 50 g = 0.05 kg, g = 9.8 ms^{-2}

Thus,

PE = 0.05 x 9.8 x h

3.3615 = 0.05 x 9.8 x h

3.3615 = 0.49h

⇒ h = \frac{3.3615}{0.49}

      = 6.8602

The height of the toy rocket would be 6.86 meters.

Independent practice
coldgirl [10]

Explanation:

formula: <u>Mass</u>

Density x volume

2a) m=10kg v=0.3m³

10÷0.3=33.3 kg/m

2b) m = 160 kg V=0.1m³

160÷0.1=1600 kg/m

2c) m = 220 kg V = 0.02m³

220÷0.02=11000 kg/m

A wooden post has a volume of 0.025m³ and a mass of 20kg. Calculate its density in kg/m.

density = volume ÷ mass

20÷ 0.025=800 kg/m

Challenge: A rectangular concrete slab is 0.80m long, 0.60 m wide and 0.04m thick. Calculate its volume in m³.

Formula : Length x width x height = Volume

0.80 x 0.60 x 0.04 = 0.0192m³

B) The mass of the concrete slab is 180 kg. Calculate its density in kg/m.

density = volume ÷ mass

180 ÷ 0.0192 = 9375 kg/m

Two identical small charged spheres hang in equilibrium with equal masses (0.02kg). The length of the strings is equal (0.18m) a
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The value is q = 3.4 *10^{-6} \ C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The mass of each sphere is m_1 = m_2  = m  =  0.020 \ kg

     The length of the string is  l = 0.18 \  m

     The angle of with the vertical is \theta  =  7^o

      The acceleration due to gravity is g = 9.8 \ m/s^2

Generally the force acting between the forces is mathematically represented as

       F  =  T cos \theta =  \frac{k*  q^2}{ r^2}

=>     T cos \theta =  \frac{k*  q^2}{ r^2}

Generally from Pythagoras theorem the radius of the circular curve created by the force is

         r = 2 L sin (\theta )

=>      r = 2* 0.180 sin (7)

=>      r = 0.043 \ m  

=>     q = tan \theta * \frac{m * g * r^2 }{k}

=>      q = tan(7)* \frac{ 0.02 * 9.8 * 0.043^2 }{9*10^{9}}

=>      q = 3.4 *10^{-6} \ C
