Answer:
The puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping
Explanation:
As the puck is accelerated by the spring, the kinetic energy of the puck equals the elastic potential energy of the spring.
So, 1/2mv² = 1/2kx² where m = mass of puck = 39.2 g = 0.0392 g, v = velocity of puck, k = spring constant = 59 N/m and x = compression of spring = 1.3 cm = 0.013 cm.
Now, since the puck has an initial velocity, v before it slides up the inclined surface, its loss in kinetic energy equals its gain in potential energy before it stops. So
1/2mv² = mgh where h = vertical height puck moves and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s².
Substituting the kinetic energy of the puck for the potential energy of the spring, we have
1/2kx² = mgh
h = kx²/2mg
= 59 N/m × (0.013 m)²/(0.0392 kg × 9.8 m/s²)
= 0.009971 Nm/0.38416 N
= 0.0259 m
= 2.59 cm
≅ 2.6 cm
So the puck moves a vertical height of 2.6 cm before stopping
The answer is 24N. Since the body is moving with constant velocity all the forces must balance (equal & opposite)
At a particular location, when an an increase in the rate at which water moves from the hydrosphere to the atmosphere, an increase in humidity is expected at that location. The term "humidity" generally refers to the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere.
Answer:
865.08 m
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s
Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m
Horizontal distance (s) =?
Next, we shall determine the time taken for the cannon to get to the ground. This can be obtained as follow:
Height (h) of the cliff = 62 m
Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
Time (t) =?
h = ½gt²
62 = ½ × 9.8 × t²
62 = 4.9 × t²
Divide both side by 4.9
t² = 62/4.9
Take the square root of both side.
t = √(62/4.9)
t = 3.56 s
Finally, we shall determine the horizontal distance travelled by the cannon ball as shown below:
Initial velocity (u) = 243 m/s
Time (t) = 3.56 s
Horizontal distance (s) =?
s = ut
s = 243 × 3.56 s
s = 865.08 m
Thus, the cannon ball will impact the ground 865.08 m from the base of the cliff.
