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

Th statement represented above : In a solution, the solvent is present in the larger amount is definitely FALSE. I choose this answer as a correct one as it also could be a solutions of alcohol ot for example <span>walter which means it's not so solid and liquid respectively. Hope it's clear! Regards!</span>

Answer:

a. 60 N*s

b. 60 (kg*m)/s

c. 3 m/s

Explanation:

Givens:

m = 20 kg

v_i = 0 m/s

t = 10 s

F = 6 N

a) Impulse:

I = F*t

I = 6 N*10 s

I = 60 N*s

b) Momentum:

p = v*m

F = m(a)

a = F/m

a = 6 N/20 kg

a = 0.3m/s^2

a = (v_f -v_i)/t

v_f = (0.3 m/s^2)*10 s

v_f = 3.0 m/s

p = 3 m/s*20 kg

p = 60 (kg*m)/s

c. Final velocity

a = (v_f -v_i)/t

v_f = (0.3 m/s^2)*10 s

v_f = 3.0 m/s

When the mass is removed, the length of the cable is found to be l0 = 4.66 m. After the mass is added, the length is remeasured
zaharov [31]

Answer:

\gamma=6.07*10^5\frac{N}{m^2}

Explanation:

For a linear elastic material Young's modulus is a constant that is given by:

\gamma=\frac{F/A}{\Delta L/L_0}

Here, F is the force exerted on an object under tensio, A is the area of the cross-section perpendicular to the applied force, \Delta L is the amount by which the length of the object changes and  L_0 is the original length of the object. In this case the force is the weight of the mass:

F=mg\\F=55kg(9.8\frac{m}{s^2})\\F=539N

Replacing the given values in Young's modulus formula:

\gamma=\frac{F/\pi r^2}{(L_1-L_0)/L_0}\\\gamma=\frac{539N/\pi(0.045m)^2}{(5.31m-4.66m)/4.66m}\\\gamma=6.07*10^5\frac{N}{m^2}
