Answer:

Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity.

Explanation: For example, acceleration is measured in m/2^2 or meters per second squared. That can also be split up into 2 components. M/s is how speed is measured, and since acceleration is the rate of change of velocity, m/(s*s). You could say that since acceleration is m/s^2, it can also be represented as how much the speed increases over 1 second. if there was an acceleration of 3 m/s^2, the rate of change of speed would be 3m/s every second, meaning that the object would speed up 3m/s every second that passes by.

Hope this helps!

Dwight uses a spring (k = 70 N/m) on a horizontal surface to make a launcher for model cars. The spring is attached to a holder

kramer

Part A)

As we know that spring force is given by

F = kx

here x = stretch in the spring from natural length

So here when spring reaches to its natural length

Force due to spring = 0

so acceleration = 0

Part b)

When spring is compressed from its natural length it will have elastic potential energy in it

so it is given by

$U = \frac{1}{2}kx^2$

now we know that there is no friction in it so maximum kinetic energy of the launcher must be equal to the elastic potential energy of the spring

$KE = \frac{1}{2}kx^2$

here we have

k = 70 N/m

x = 0.4 m

$KE = \frac{1}{2}(70)(0.4)^2$

$KE = 5.6 J$

Part c)

Now to find the speed we know that

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

$5.6 = \frac{1}{2}0.3v^2$

$v = 6.11 m/s$

so its speed is 6.11 m/s

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

$C = 1.77 \times 10^{-4} F$

Explanation:

As we know that in AC circuit we have

$V = i x_c$

here we have

V = 59 V

i = 5.05 A

so we will have

$x_c = \frac{59}{5.05}$

$x_c = 11.68 ohm$

also we know that

$x_c = \frac{1}{\omega C}$

here we will have

$11.68 = \frac{1}{(2\pi 77)C}$

$C = 1.77 \times 10^{-4} F$
