Answer:

0.495m

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of the stone will be equal to the work done by the spring

Mathematically;

W = KE

1/2ke² = 1/2mv²

ke² = mv²

k is the spring constant = 150N/m

e is the extension

m is the mass = 0.015kg

v is the velocity = 70m/s

Substitute

150e² = 1/2 * 0.015 * 70²

150e² = 36.75

e² = 36.75/150

e² =  0.245

e = √0.245

e = 0.495m

Hence the extension of the catapult is 0.495m

Ultrasonic images are obtained from the inside organs of our body. This process uses which property of sound wave?
Temka [501]

This question involves the concepts of echo, ultrasonic images, ultrasonic sound waves.

The process of ultrasonic images uses the "echo" property of the sound waves.

Echo is the property of the sound wave by the virtue of which the sound wave reflects back to the source of the sound after hitting a surface or an object.

Ultrasonic images are obtained from inside organs of our body. This process involves the use of ultrasonic sound waves that have a frequency greater than 20,000 Hz. These sound waves are out of the range of audible sound by the human ear. When these ultrasonic sound waves are sent in form of pulses into the human body by the use of probes, they reflect back from the tissues of different organs to the probe. The probe then records the reflection properties of these sound waves and displays them in form of an image, known as ultrasonic images.

A light, rigid rod is 55.8 cm long. Its top end is pivoted on a frictionless horizontal axle. The rod hangs straight down at res
VMariaS [17]

To solve this problem we will apply the principle of conservation of energy. For this purpose, potential energy is equivalent to kinetic energy, and this clearly depends on the position of the body. In turn, we also note that the height traveled is twice that of the rigid rod, therefore applying these concepts we will have

KE = PE

\frac{1}{2} mv^2 = mgh

v = \sqrt{2gh}

v = \sqrt{2(9.8)(2(55.8*10^{-2}))}

v = 4.67m/s

Therefore the minimum speed at the bottom is required to make the ball go over the top of the circle is 4.67m/s
