A ball is pushed into a spring-loaded launcher with a force of 20 N, which compresses the spring 0.08 m.

Physics
1 answer:
damaskus [11]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

0.8J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force  = 20N

Compression  = 0.08m

Unknown:

Spring constant  = ?

Elastic potential energy  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the expression below:

           F = k e

F is the force

k is the spring constant

e is the compression

             20  = k x 0.08

              k  = 250N/m

Elastic potential energy;

       EPE  = \frac{1}{2} k e²    =  \frac{1}{2}  x 250 x 0.08²

 Elastic potential energy = 0.8J

a coil of 40 henry inductance is connected in series with aresistance of 8ohm and the combination is joined to the terminals of
Andreyy89

Answer: 5 seconds

Explanation:

Given the following :

Inductance (L) = 40 henry

Resistance = 8 ohms

The circuit given above is a Resistor - Inductor (RL) circuit network. The time constant of an RL circuit is the ratio of the circuit Inductance (L) and Resistance (R). Time constant is measured in seconds.

THAT IS;

Time constant = L / R

THEREFORE ;

Time constant = 40 / 8

Time constant = 5 seconds

How much energy (in Joules) is released when 12.0 g of water cools from 20.0 °C to 11.0 °C? This is a grade 10 question from the
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer: - 452.088joule

Explanation:

Given the following :

Mass of water = 12g

Change in temperature(Dt) = (11 - 20)°C = - 9°C

Specific heats capacity of water(c) = 4.186j/g°C

Q = mcDt

Where Q = quantity of heat

Q = 12g × 4.186j/g°C × - 9°C

Q = - 452.088joule

Whenever you push an object across a frictional surface, it starts out taking a lot of force to push to get the object moving. H
son4ous [18]

Answer:

The answer is A

Explanation:

Here's an example. A child is in school taking a test. They have made a mistake on a question, and want to erase it. The eraser is made out of a type of rubber, the rubber has friction, which means the eraser has something that's going to resist movement. Now the child has exerted enough force to get it moving, and it's moving, it won't stop unless the child stops exerting force to keep it moving. Both Newton's 1st and 3rd law explain the action of moving something on a surface with friction.
