Answer:
The spring was compressed the following amount:
Explanation:
Use conservation of energy between initial and final state, considering that the surface id frictionless, and there is no loss in thermal energy due to friction. the total initial energy is the potential energy of the compressed spring (by an amount 
), and the total final energy is the addition of the kinetic energies of both masses:
Answer:
It's either B or D, I'm not positive which it is
Explanation:
Question:
A spaceship enters the solar system moving toward the Sun at a constant speed relative to the Sun. By its own clock, the time elapsed between the time it crosses the orbit of Jupiter and the time it crosses the orbit of Mars is 35.0 minutes
How fast is the spaceship traveling towards the Sun? The radius of the orbit of Jupiter is 43.2 light-minutes, and that of the orbit of Mars is 12.6 light-minutes.
Answer:
S = 5.508 × 10¹¹m
V = 2.62 × 10⁸ m/s
Explanation:
The radius of the orbit of Jupiter, Rj is 43.2 light-minutes
radius of the orbit of Mars, Rm is 12.6 light-minutes
Distance travelled S = (Rj - Rm)
= 43.2 - 12.6 = 30.6 light- minutes
= 30.6 × (3 ×10⁸m/s) × 60 s
= 5.508 × 10¹¹m
time = 35mins = (35 × 60 secs)
= 2100 secs
speed = distance/time
V = 5.508 × 10¹¹m / 2100 s
V = 2.62 × 10⁸ m/s
Answer:
(C) length / height of the plane
Explanation:
The mechanical advantage of an inclined plane can be determined using different variables. In this case, the geometry of the setup is relevant. The advantage is proportional to the length of the plane, and inversely proportional to the height: it is the ratio (length) / (height) of the plane. For example, given a desired, fixed height, a long inclined plane gives you a bigger mechanical advantage than a short inclined plane. In this example, pushing an object up the long plane will require a smaller force, than it would on the short plane.
Strictly speaking, (D) would also "allow you to determine the mechanical advantage" because you could simply invert the ratio listed under (D). However, (C) is the best, direct, answer.
All of them apply because they all are doing some thing to move
