A 4kg box is pressed into a spring. The spring constant k=220N/m. The box is released at the bottom of a frictionless ramp and r

ises to a height of y= 0.75m as shown below.
How far was the spring compressed? In meters.​

Answer:

Explanation:

The stored elastic energy in the spring helps the box to rise to a height of .75 m

So stored elastic energy = potential energy attained

1/2 k d² = mgh , k is spring constant , d is compression in spring , m is mass of box , h is height attained .

Putting the values

.5 x 220 x d² = 4 x 9.8 x .75

d² = .2673

d = .517 m

51.7 cm .

harina [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

a)

Ff = μmgcosθ

Ff = 0.28(1600)(9.8)cos(-84)

Ff = 458.9217...

Ff = 460 N

b)  ignoring the curves required at top and bottom which change the friction force significantly, especially at the bottom where centripetal acceleration will greatly increase normal forces and thus friction force.

W = Ffd

W = 458.9217(-49.4/sin(-84)

W = 22,795.6119...

W = 23 kJ

c) same assumptions as part b

The change in potential energy minus the work of friction will be kinetic energy.

KE = PE - W

½mv² = mgh - (μmgcosθ)d

v² = 2(gh - (μgcosθ)(h/sinθ))

v = √(2gh(1 - μcotθ))

v = √(2(9.8)(49.4)(1 - 0.28cot84))

v = 30.6552...

v = 31 m/s

When work is done on an object, where does the energy used to do the work go?
borishaifa [10]
-- If the work is done to make the object move faster, then
the work done becomes kinetic energy of the object.

-- If work is done on the object but it doesn't move any faster,
then there must be friction holding it back.  In that case, the work
that's done just to keep the object moving becomes heat, in the
places where the friction acts on it.

light of a certain frequency has a wavelength of 438 nm in water.What is the wavelength of this light in benzene​
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

388.97 nm

Explanation:

The computation of the wavelength of this light in benzene is shown below:

As we know that

n (water) = 1.333

n (benzene) = 1.501

\lambda (water) \times n(water) = \lambda (benzene) \times n(benzene)

And, the wavelength of water is 438 nm

\lambda (benzene) = \lambda (water) [\frac{n(water)}{n(benzene}]

Now placing these values to the above formula

So,

= 438 \times \frac{1.333}{1.501}

= 388.97 nm

We simply applied the above formula so that we can easily determine the wavelength of this light in benzene​ could come
