A block of mass 0.500 kg is pushed against a horizontal spring of negligible mass until the spring is compressed a distance x (F

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

Part a)

$x = 0.4 m$

Part b)

$v_i = 11.7 m/s$

Part c)

Speed is more than the required speed so it will reach the top

Explanation:

Part a)

As we know that there is no frictional force while block is moving on horizontal plane

so we can use energy conservation on the block

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

$\frac{1}{2}0.500(12^2) = \frac{1}{2}(450)x^2$

$x = 0.4 m$

Part b)

If the track has average frictional force of 7 N then work done by friction while block slides up is given as

$W_f = -7( \pi R)$

$W_f = -7(\pi \times 1.00)$

$W_f = -22 J$

work done against gravity is given as

$W_g = - mg(2R)$

$W_g = -(0.500)(9.8)(2\times 1)$

$W_g = -9.8 J$

Now by work energy equation we have

$\frac{1}{2}mv_i^2 + W_f + W_g = \frac{1}{2}mv_f^2$

$\frac{1}{2}0.5(12^2) - 9.8 - 22 = \frac{1}{2}(0.5)v_f^2$

$v_f = 4.1 m/s$

Part c)

now minimum speed required at the top is such that the normal force must be zero

$mg = \frac{mv^2}{R}$

$v = \sqrt{Rg}$

$v = 3.13 m/s$

so here we got speed more than the required speed so it will reach the top

What is specific heat? List the formula

sladkih [1.3K]

An example of a high specific heat is water’s specific heat, which requires 4.184 joules of heat to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water 1 degree Celsius. Scientifically, water’s specific heat is written as: 1 calorie/gm °C = 4.186 J/gm °C.

What happens to molecules when their kinetic energy decreases?

Illusion [34]

Answer:

The speed of molecule decreases and temperature also decreases

Explanation:

Kinetic energy of the molecules of a subsance is directly proportional to the temperature of molecule So as the kinetic energy decrease, temperature also decreases. decreses their speed.

The moon Phobos orbits Mars

podryga [215]

Explanation:

For a circular orbit v= $\sqrt{\frac{G.m}{r} }$ with G = 6.6742 × $10^{-11}$

Given m = 6.42 x 10^23 kg and r=9.38 x 10^6 m

=> v = 2137.3 m/s

I hope this is the correct way to solve
