Answer:

4.808m

Explanation:

Force is given as:

F = ma

Since the force is a frictional force,

Fr = F

Fr = ma

Frictional force, Fr, is given as:

-umg = ma

a = -ug = -0.13 * 9.8 = -1.274 m/s²

Using one of the equations of motion, we can find the distance:

v² = u² + 2as

Since the box comes to a halt, v = 0m/s:

0 = u² + 2as

s = -u²/2a

s = -(-3.5²)/(2 * 1.274) = 4.808m

A 0.500-kg object connected to a light spring with a spring constant of 20.0 N/m oscillates on a frictionless horizontal surface
givi [52]

Answer:

a = 0.009 J

b = 0.19 m/s

c = 0.005 J and 0.004 J

Explanation:

Given that

Mass of the object, m = 0.5 kg

Spring constant of the spring, k = 20 N/m

Amplitude of the motion, A = 3 cm = 0.03 m

Displacement of the system, x = 2 cm = 0.02 m

a

Total energy of the system, E =

E = 1/2 * k * A²

E = 1/2 * 20 * 0.03²

E = 10 * 0.0009

E = 0.009 J

b

E = 1/2 * k * A² = 1/2 * m * v(max)²

1/2 * m * v(max)² = 0.009

1/2 * 0.5 * v(max)² = 0.009

v(max)² = 0.009 * 2/0.5

v(max)² = 0.018 / 0.5

v(max)² = 0.036

v(max) = √0.036

v(max) = 0.19 m/s

c

V = ±√[(k/m) * (A² - x²)]

V = ±√[(20/0.5) * (0.03² - 0.02²)]

V = ±√(40 * 0.0005)

V = ±√0.02

V = ±0.141 m/s

Kinetic Energy, K = 1/2 * m * v²

K = 1/2 * 0.5 * 0.141²

K = 1/4 * 0.02

K = 0.005 J

Potential Energy, P = 1/2 * k * x²

P = 1/2 * 20 * 0.02²

P = 10 * 0.0004

P = 0.004 J

What happens when solar energy heats a body of water?
Nataliya [291]
Explanation: Evaporation happens when a liquid substance becomes a gas. When water is heated, it evaporates. The molecules move and vibrate so quickly that they escape into the atmosphere as molecules of water vapor (Dunn,1993).
