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

Physics

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

If a player through a basketball to the target with an initial velocity of 17 m/s making an angle of 30 degrees with the horizon
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The final position made with the vertical is 2.77 m.

Explanation:

Given;

initial velocity of the ball, V = 17 m/s

angle of projection, θ = 30⁰

time of motion, t = 1.3 s

The vertical component of the velocity is calculated as;

V_y = Vsin \theta\\\\V_y = 17 \times sin(30)\\\\V_y = 8.5 \ m/s

The final position made with the vertical (Yf) after 1.3 seconds is calculated as;

Y_f = V_yt  - \frac{1}{2}g t^2\\\\Y_f = (8.5 \times 1.3 ) - (\frac{1}{2} \times 9.8 \times 1.3^2)\\\\Y_f = 11.05 \ - \ 8.281\\\\Y_f = 2.77 \ m

Therefore, the final position made with the vertical is 2.77 m.

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Very sorry if this is late

Explanation:

Currently, in Olympia, Washington, it is raining because a cold front with high pressure has met an area with low pressure. This occurs due to the fact that storms are caused by sudden differences in air pressure.

Janice has just measured the density of an object. Which value is possible? (Density: D = )
babunello [35]
It is 6 g/cm3 because density cannot be negative, and it is not speed in which the unit would be m/s.
