A vertical spring with a spring constant of 420 N/m is mounted on the floor. From directly above the spring, which is unstrained

, a 0.15-kg block is dropped from rest. It collides with and sticks to the spring, which is compressed by 3.7 cm in bringing the block to a momentary halt. Assuming air resistance is negligible, from what height above the compressed spring was the block dropped

Answer:

19.53 cm

Explanation:

The computation of the height is as follows:

Here we applied the conservation of the energy formula

As we know that

P.E of the block = P.E of the spring

 m g h = ( 1 ÷ 2) k x^2

where

m = 0.15

g = 9.81

k = 420

x = 0.037

So now put the values to the above formula

(0.15) (9.81) (h) = 1 ÷2 × 420 × (0.037)^2

1.4715 (h) = 0.28749

h = 0.19537 m

= 19.53 cm

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

static coefficient = 0,203 & kinetic coefficient = 0,14

Explanation:

There are two (2) conditions, when the desk is about to move and when the desk is moving. In the attachements you can see the two free body diagram for each condition.

In the first condition, there is no movement and the force is 12 N, in the image we can see the total forces are equal to 0 and by the definition of the friction force we can get the static friction coefficient.

In the second condition there is movement in the direction of the force which is equal to 8 N, again by the definition of the friction force we can get the kinetic friction coefficient. Since the desk is moving with constant velocity there is not acceleration.

zlopas [31]

Answer:

λ = 3.4 × 10^18m

Explanation:using Rydberg equation:

1/λ = RH •Z^2[ (1/n1) - (1/n2) ]

RH = Rydberg constant = 2.18x 10^-18j)

n1 and n2 = energy levels (n2 >n1)

Z = atomic number = 4

Substitute

1/λ = 2.18x 10^-18• [ (1/3) - (1/5) }

λ = 3.4 × 10^18m
