A 3.0 kg object is loaded into a toy spring gun, and the spring has a spring constant 750N/m. The object compresses the spring b

kiruha [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

mass of object, m = 3 kg

spring constant, K = 750 n/m

compression, x = 8 cm = 0.08 m

angle of gun, θ = 30°

(a) As the ball is launched, it has some velocity due to the compression in the spring, so it has some kinetic energy.

(b) Let v be th evelocity of ball at the tim eof launch.

by using the conservation of energy

1/2 Kx² = 1/2 mv²

750 x 0.08 x 0.08 = 3 x v²

v = 1.265 m/s

By use of the formula of maximum height

$h = \frac{v^{2}Sin^{2}\theta}{2g}$

$h = \frac{1.265^{2}Sin^{2}30}{2\times 9.8}$

h = 0.02 m

h = 2 cm

A force of 6600 N is exerted on a piston that has an area of 0.010 m2

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

Choice A: approximately $0.015\; \rm m^2$ , assuming that the two pistons are connected via some confined liquid to form a simple machine.

Explanation:

Assume that the two pistons are connected via some liquid that is confined. Pressure from the first piston:

$\displaystyle P_1 = \frac{F_1}{A_1} = \frac{6.600\times 10^3\; \rm N}{1.0\times 10^{-2}\; \rm m^{2}} = 6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}$ .

By Pascal's Principle, because the first piston exerted a pressure of $6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}$ on the liquid, the liquid will now exert the same amount of pressure on the walls of the container.

Assume that the second piston is part of that wall. The pressure on the second piston will also be $6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}$ . In other words:

$P_2 = P_1 = 6.6\times 10^{5}\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}$ .

To achieve a force of $9.900 \times 10^3\; \rm N$ , the surface area of the second piston should be:

$\displaystyle A_2 = \frac{F_2}{P_2} = \frac{9.900\times 10^{3}\; \rm N}{6.6\times 10^5\; \rm N \cdot m^{-2}} \approx 0.015\; \rm m^{2}$ .

On a windy day, the wind turbine transfers 78 W of power. Calculate the amount of energy the turbine transfers in 10s.

tangare [24]

Answer:

Energy = 780 Joules

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Power = 78 Watts

Time = 10 seconds

To find the energy transferred;

Energy refers to the amount or quantity of power which is being consumed by an individual, group of people or organization over a specific period of time.

Mathematically, energy is given by the formula;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 78 * 10

Energy = 780 Joules

Therefore, the amount of energy the turbine transferred is 780 Joules

A child is holding a wagon from rolling straight back down in a driveway that inclined at 20 degree horizontal. if the wagon wei

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

F = 51.3°

Explanation:

The component of weight parallel to the inclined plane must be responsible for the rolling back motion of the car. Hence, the force required to be applied by the child must also be equal to that component of weight:

$F = Parallel\ Component\ of\ Weight\ of\ Wagon= WSin\theta\\$

where,

W = Weight of Wagon = 150 N

θ = Angle of Inclinition = 20°

Therefore,

$F = (150\ N)Sin\ 20^o$
