A 0.454-kg block is attached to a horizontal spring that is at its equilibrium length, and whose force constant is 25.0 N/m. The

block rests on a frictionless surface. A 5.70×10−2-kg wad of putty is thrown horizontally at the block, hitting it with a speed of 8.99 m/s and bounced with the same speed of 8.99 m/s in opposite direction. How far does the block compresses the spring?

The total momentum of the block and putty prior to their collision is

(0.454 kg) (0 m/s) + (5.70 × 10⁻² kg) (8.99 m/s) ≈ 0.512 kg•m/s

and the total momentum after the collision is

(0.454 kg) <em>v</em> + (5.70 × 10⁻² kg) (-8.99 m/s)

where <em>v</em> is the velocity of the block. Momentum is conserved, so

(0.454 kg) <em>v</em> + (5.70 × 10⁻² kg) (-8.99 m/s) = 0.512 kg•m/s

==>   <em>v</em> ≈ 2.26 m/s

The total work done on the block by the spring as it gets compressed by a distance <em>x</em> is equal to the change in the block's kinetic energy:

1/2 (25.0 N/m) <em>x</em> ² = 1/2 (0.454 kg) (2.26 m/s) - 0

==>   <em>x</em> ≈ 0.202 m ≈ 20.2 cm

What is the resolution of an analog-to-digital converter with a word length of 12 bits and an analogue signal input range of 100
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The resolution of an analog-to-digital converter is 24.41 mV

Explanation:

Resolution of an analog-to-digital  = (analogue signal input range)/2ⁿ

where;

n is the number or length of bit, and in this question it is given as 12

Also, the analogue signal input range is 100V

Resolution of an analog-to-digital  = 100V/2¹²

2¹² = 4096

Resolution of an analog-to-digital  = 100V/4096

Resolution of an analog-to-digital  = 0.02441 V = 24.41 mV

Therefore, the resolution of an analog-to-digital converter is 24.41 mV

The average Intensity of the electromagnetic field due to sunlight at the surface of the earth is 1400 W/m^2. Calculate the maxi
Ann [662]

Answer:

1027 N/C

3.42 x 10⁻⁶ T

Explanation:

I = Intensity of electromagnetic field = 1400 W/m²

E₀ = Maximum value of electric field

Intensity of electromagnetic field is given as

I = (0.5) ε₀ E₀² c

1400 =  (0.5) (8.85 x 10⁻¹²) (3 x 10⁸) E₀²

E₀ = 1027 N/C

B₀ = maximum value of magnetic field

using the equation

E₀ = B₀ c

1027 = B₀ (3 x 10⁸)

B₀ = 3.42 x 10⁻⁶ T

Compare the foot of mollusks with the tube feet of echinoderms.
stira [4]

Mollusks live in fresh water, in marine environment, but also on land.

<span>Echinoderms live only in water. This is the reason why they have developed different systems for moving. Mollusks have only singular muskullus foot for walking and Echinoderms have tube feet which they use for moving, as well for collecting and transporting food to their mouth. </span>
