Elliot jumps up and down on a pogo stick. He weighs 600.N, and his pogo stick has a spring with spring constant 1100N/m. What is
tia_tia [17]

From conservation of energy, the height he will reach when he has gravitational potential energy 250J is 0.42 meters approximately

The given weight of Elliot is 600 N

From conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy of Elliot must have been converted to elastic potential energy. Then, the elastic potential energy from the spring was later converted to maximum potential energy P.E of Elliot.

P.E = mgh

where mg = Weight = 600

To find the height Elliot will reach, substitute all necessary parameters into the equation above.

250 = 600h

Make h the subject of the formula

h = 250/600

h = 0.4167 meters

Therefore, the height he will reach when he has gravitational potential energy 250J is 0.42 meters approximately

What do astronomers use in addition to parallax to find the actual distance of stars that are close to Earth?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

trigonometry (guessing)

Explanation:

ellipse: is the shape of an orbit : looks like an oval

periapsis : shortest distance between something like the moon and the planet its orbiting around like the earth

parallax is triangulation. like how gps works. looking at a star one day and then looking at it again 6 months later, an astronomer can see a difference in the viewing angle for the star. With trigonometry, the different angles yield a distance. This technique works for stars within about 400 light years of earth

https://science.howstuffworks.com/question224.htm

By comparing the intrinsic brightness to the star's apparent brightness we can calculate the distance of stars

1/r^2 rule states that the apparent brightness of a light source is proportional to the square of its distance.Jan 11, 2022

https://www.space.com/30417-parallax.html

alternative distance measurement for stars used by most astronomers is the parsec. A star with a parallax angle of 1 arcsecond has a distance of 1 parsec, or 1 parsec per arcsecond of parallax, which is about 3.26 light years

A glider with mass 0.24 kg sits on a frictionless horizontal air track, connected to a spring of negligible mass with force cons
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

v=2.556m/s

Explanation:

From the conservation of mechanical energy

K_{E1}+U_1=K_{E2}+U_2

\frac{1}{2}m*v_1^2+\frac{1}{2}*K*x_1^2=\frac{1}{2}m*v_2^2+\frac{1}{2}*K*x_2^2

x_2=0.08m

v_1=0 m/s

Solve to velocity v2

m*v_2^2=k*x_1^2-k*x_2^2

v^2=\frac{k}{m}*(x_1^2-x_2^2)

v^2=\frac{5.5N/m}{0.24kg}*(0.54m^2-0.080^2)

v=\sqrt{6.54m^2/s^2}=2.556m/s

A 25 kg box on a horizontal frictionless surface is moving to the right at a speed of 5.0 m s. The box hits and remains attached
seropon [69]

Answer:

Explanation:

Work done by the spring is negative .

Work done by force F creating displacement  d is given by the following expression .

Work = F x d

Both force and displacement are vector quantity .

When direction of force and direction of displacement is same , work is positive . When direction of force and direction of displacement is opposite , work is negative .

When spring is compressed , it exerts a restoring or opposing force in a direction opposite to the direction of displacement of box . Hence here force is opposite to displacement . Restoring force acts opposite to displacement . Hence work done by spring on box is negative .
