Answer:

Explanation:

mg = kx

k = mg/x

k = 0.40(9.8)/0.030

k = 130.66666...

k ≈ 130 N/m

Until a train is a safe distance from the station, it must travel at 5 m/s. Once the train is on open track, it can speec
nadezda [96]

Answer:

The acceleration of the train is 5 m/s².

Explanation:

Given:

let the initial velocity of a train = 5 m/s and

final velocity of a train = 45 m/s

time taken = 8 s

To find:

acceleration: ?

Solution:

We define acceleration as change in velocity per unit time that is the difference between the final velocity and initial velocity divided by time.

Acceleration = \frac{\textrm{final velocity} - \textrm{initial velocity}}{time} \\

On substituting the above values we get the required acceleration

Acceleration = \frac{45 - 5}{8}\\ =\frac{40}{8}\\ =5\ m/s^{2}

Therefore,the acceleration of the train is 5 m/s².

Consider an insulated tank with a volume V = 2 L is separated into two equal-volume parts by a thin wall. On the left is an idea
steposvetlana [31]

Answer

given,

V = 2 L

the left is an ideal gas at  P = 100 k Pa and T = 500 K

mass is constant

 m_1 = m_2

\dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1} = \dfrac{P_2V_2}{RT_2}

Pressure is same because it's not changing due to process

\dfrac{V}{500} = \dfrac{2 V}{T_2}

T_2 = 1000\ K

\Delta S_{univ} = \Delta S_{sys} + (\Delta S)_{surr}

\Delta S_{univ} =m(C_v ln (\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}))+ R ln (\dfrac{V_2}{V_1})

m = \dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1}

m = \dfrac{100 \times 10^3 \times 2 \times 10^{-3}}{287\times 500}

m = 1.39 x 10⁻³ Kg

\Delta S_{univ} =1.39\times 10^{-3}(0.718 ln\ 2+ 0.287 ln (2)

\Delta S_{univ} =0.968\times 10^{-3}\ kJ/K

A 0.20 kg mass on a horizontal spring is pulled back a certain distance and released. The maximum speed of the mass is measured
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

b. 0.20 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

initial mass, m = 0.2 kg

maximum speed,  v = 0.3 m/s

The total energy of the spring at the given maximum speed is calculated as;

K.E = ¹/₂mv²

K.E = 0.5 x 0.2 x 0.3²

K.E = 0.009 J

If the mass is changed to 0.4 kg

¹/₂mv² = K.E

mv² = 2K.E

v = \sqrt{\frac{2K.E}{m} } \\\\v =  \sqrt{\frac{2\times 0.009}{0.4} } \\\\v = 0.21 \ m/s\\\\v \approx 0.20 \ m/s

Therefore, the maximum speed is 0.20 m/s
