What is the measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a material known as?

A 150kg person stands on a compression spring with spring constant 10000n/m and nominal length of 0.50.what is the total length

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

<em>The total length of the spring would be 0.65 m</em>

Explanation:

The Concept

Hooke's law evaluates the increment of spring in relation to the force acting on the body. Hooke's law states that for a spring undergoing deformation, the force applied is directly proportional to the deformation experienced by the spring. Hooke's law is represented thus;

F = k x ..................1

where F is the force applied to the spring

k is the spring constant

x is the spring stretch or extension

Step by Step Calculations

We have to obtain x before adding it to the nominal length, We make x the subject formula in equation 1;

x = F/k

but F = m x g

so, x = (m x g)/k

given that, the mass of the person m =150 kg

g is the acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/ $s^{2}$

k is the spring constant = 10000 N/m

then x = (9.81 m/ $s^{2}$ x 150 kg)/10000 N/m

x = 0.14715 m

the extension experienced by the spring after the compression is 0.14715 m

The total length of the spring would be;

L = 0.14715 m + 0.5 m = 0.64715

L ≈ 0.65 m

Therefore the total length of the spring would be 0.65 m

Two loudspeakers are placed next to each other and driven by the same source at 500 Hz. A listener is positioned in front of the

stellarik [79]

To solve this problem we will apply the concepts related to wavelength as the rate of change of the speed of the wave over the frequency. Mathematically this is

$\lambda = \frac{v}{f}$

Here,

v = Wave velocity

f = Frequency,

Replacing with our values we have that,

$\lambda = \frac{340}{500}$

\lambda = 0.68m

The distance to move one speaker is half this

$\lambda/2 = 0.34m$

Therefore the minimum distance will be 0.34m

A playground slide is in the form of an arc of a circle with a maximum height of 3.0 m, with a radius of 8.5 m, and with the gro

julia-pushkina [17]

Answer:

a) $s \approx 6.676\,m$

Explanation:

a) Let assume that the ground is not inclined, since the bottom of the playground slide is tangent to ground. Then, the length of given by the definition of a circular arc:

$s = \frac{\pi}{4}\cdot R$

$s=\frac{\pi}{4}\cdot (8.5\,m)$

$s \approx 6.676\,m$

The bottom of the slide has a height of zero. The physical phenomenon around Dr. Ritchey's daughter is modelled after Principle of Energy Conservation. The child begins at rest:

$U_{g,A} = K_{B} + W_{fr}$

$m\cdot g \cdot h_{A} = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v_{B}^{2} + f\cdot s$

The average frictional force is cleared within the expression:

$f = \frac{m\cdot (g\cdot h_{A}-\frac{1}{2}\cdot v_{B}^{2})}{s}$

$f = \frac{(12\,kg)\cdot [(9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} )\cdot (3\,m)-\frac{1}{2}\cdot (4.5\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2} ]}{6.676\,m}$

$f = 34.684\,N$

Which of the following best describes the term thermal energy? Choose one: A. The energy of an object in motion due to its mass

o-na [289]

Answer:

The correct option is (d).

Explanation:

The energy a particle has because of its charge and its position relative to another particle is called thermal energy.
It is the energy that comes from heat. This is generated by the movement of the particles in an object.
Thermal energy is the energy an object or system has due to the movement of particles within.

Hence, the correct option is (d).
