Which statement provides the most complete description of an object's motion?

A(n) 55.5 g ball is dropped from a height of 53.6 cm above a spring of negligible mass. The ball compresses the spring to a maxi

Serggg [28]

Answer:

The spring force constant is $k=243\ \frac{N}{m}$ .

Explanation:

We are told the mass of the ball is $m=0.0555\ kg$ , the height above the spring where the ball is dropped is $h=0.536\ m$ , the length the ball compresses the spring is $d=0.04897\ m$ and the acceleration of gravity is $9.8\ \frac{m}{s^{2}}$ .

We will consider the initial moment to be when the ball is dropped and the final moment to be when the ball stops, compressing the spring. We supose that there is no friction so the initial mechanical energy $E_{mi}$ is equal to the final mechanical energy $E_{mf}$ :

$E_{mf}=E_{mi}$

Initially there is only gravitational potential energy because the force of the spring isn't present and the speed is zero. In the final moment there is only elastic potential energy because the height is zero and the ball has stopped. So we have that:

$\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}=mgh$

If we manipulate the equation we have that:

$k=\frac{2mgh}{d^{2} }$

$k=\frac{2\ 0.0555\ kg\ 9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}\ 0.536\ m}{(0.04897)^{2}m^{2}}$

$k=\frac{0.58306\ \frac{kgm^{2}}{s^{2}}}{2.398x10^{-3}m^{2}}$

$k=243\ \frac{N}{m}$

A 3.5 kg object moving in two dimensions initially has a velocity v1 = (12.0 i^ + 22.0 j^) m/s. A net force F then acts on the o

lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

The work done by the force is 820.745 joules.

Explanation:

Let suppose that changes in potential energy can be neglected. According to the Work-Energy Theorem, an external conservative force generates a change in the state of motion of the object, that is a change in kinetic energy. This phenomenon is describe by the following mathematical model:

$K_{1} + W_{F} = K_{2}$

Where:

$W_{F}$ - Work done by the external force, measured in joules.

$K_{1}$ , $K_{2}$ - Translational potential energy, measured in joules.

The work done by the external force is now cleared within:

$W_{F} = K_{2} - K_{1}$

After using the definition of translational kinetic energy, the previous expression is now expanded as a function of mass and initial and final speeds of the object:

$W_{F} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot (v_{2}^{2}-v_{1}^{2})$

Where:

$m$ - Mass of the object, measured in kilograms.

$v_{1}$ , $v_{2}$ - Initial and final speeds of the object, measured in meters per second.

Now, each speed is the magnitude of respective velocity vector:

Initial velocity

$v_{1} = \sqrt{v_{1,x}^{2}+v_{1,y}^{2}}$

$v_{1} = \sqrt{\left(12\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+\left(22\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}$

$v_{1} \approx 25.060\,\frac{m}{s}$

Final velocity

$v_{2} = \sqrt{v_{2,x}^{2}+v_{2,y}^{2}}$

$v_{2} = \sqrt{\left(16\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}+\left(29\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}}$

$v_{2} \approx 33.121\,\frac{m}{s}$

Finally, if $m = 3.5\,kg$ , $v_{1} \approx 25.060\,\frac{m}{s}$ and $v_{2} \approx 33.121\,\frac{m}{s}$ , then the work done by the force is:

$W_{F} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot (3.5\,kg)\cdot \left[\left(33.121\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}-\left(25.060\,\frac{m}{s} \right)^{2}\right]$

$W_{F} = 820.745\,J$

The work done by the force is 820.745 joules.

At which of the following angles will the sunlight received at a location on Earth spread out over the largest area?

AleksandrR [38]

The angle at which the sunlight received at a location on Earth spread out over the largest area is 10°. Last option is correct.

<h3>What is sunlight?</h3>

The light coming from the Sun reaching the Earth's surface is called as Sunlight.

When the sun is overhead, the intensity is high because sun's rays are perpendicular to the earth's surface, so the energy spreads over a small area and the heat is too high in that region.

When, the angle is smaller, the sunlight will spread out over a larger area.

Thus, at 10° the sunlight received at a location on Earth spread out over the largest area. Last option is correct.
