Answer:

640000 kg

Explanation:

Formula is

Force = mass * acceleration

Mass = force / acceleration

Mass = 1600000 / 2.5

Mass = 640000 kg

A 1.4-kg cart is attached to a horizontal spring for which the spring constant is 50 N/m . The system is set in motion when the
marin [14]

Answer:

A)

0.395 m

B)

2.4 m/s

Explanation:

A)

m = mass of the cart = 1.4 kg

k = spring constant of the spring = 50 Nm⁻¹

x = initial position of spring from equilibrium position = 0.21 m

v_{i} = initial speed of the cart = 2.0 ms⁻¹

A = amplitude of the oscillation = ?

Using conservation of energy

Final spring energy = initial kinetic energy + initial spring energy

(0.5) kA^{2} = (0.5) m v_{i}^{2} + (0.5) k x_{i}^{2} \\kA^{2} = m v_{i}^{2} + k x_{i}^{2} \\(50) A^{2} = (1.4) (2.0)^{2} + (50) (0.21)^{2} \\A = 0.395 m

B)

m = mass of the cart = 1.4 kg

k = spring constant of the spring = 50 Nm⁻¹

A = amplitude of the oscillation = 0.395 m

v_{o} = maximum speed at the equilibrium position

Using conservation of energy

Kinetic energy at equilibrium position = maximum spring potential energy at extreme stretch of the spring

(0.5) m v_{o}^{2} = (0.5) kA^{2}\\m v_{o}^{2} = kA^{2}\\(1.4) v_{o}^{2} = (50) (0.395)^{2}\\v_{o} = 2.4 ms^{-1}

When hiking at altitude, the air pressure drops to 825,000Pa. Solve the force that site exerts against the side of a rectangular
OLga [1]

Answer:

The force is 1237500N

Explanation:

We can apply the following expression

pressure=\frac{Force}{Area}

To find the area of rectangular tent wall:

Area=length *width\\Area=2.00m*0.750m\\Area=1.5m^{2}

Now to find the force:

pressure=825,000pa

pressure=\frac{Force}{Area}

Force=pressure*Area\\Force=825000pa*1.5m^{2} \\Force=1237500N

Julie drives 100 mi to Grandmother's house. On the way to Grandmother's, Julie drives half the distance at 30.0 mph and half the
salantis [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Distance to grandmother's house=100 mi

it is given that during return trip Julie spend equal time driving with speed 30 mph and 70 mph

Let Julie travel x mi with 30 mph and 100-x with 70 mph

\frac{x}{30}=\frac{100-x}{70}

x=30 mi

Therefore

Julie's Average speed on the way to Grandmother's house=\frac{100}{\frac{50}{30}+\frac{50}{70}}

=42 mph

On return trip

=\frac{100}{2\frac{30}{30}}=50 mph
