A rock is dropped off a cliff and falls the first half of the distance to the ground in t1 seconds. If it falls the second half

Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

$t2/t1 = \sqrt{2} - 1$

Explanation:

The expression for the second law of motion is given below:

h = $ut + 0.5at^2$

For first half distance

Object is initially at rest, so its initial speed u = 0

Object falls at half the distance, so h = h/2 where t = t1

Hence, we have

$h/2 = at1^2/2 - equation 1$

For second half distance:

Similarly,

$h = a(t1 + t2)^2/2 - equation 2$ where t = t1 + t2 and u= 0

Using equation 2 by equation 1

we obtain $2 = (t1 + t2)^2/t1^2$

Hence $t2/t1 + 1 = \sqrt{2}$

Hence $t2/t1 = \sqrt{2} - 1$

You pull on a spring whose spring constant is 22 N/m, and stretch it from its equilibrium length of 0.3 m to a length of 0.7 m.

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

W= 4.4 J

Explanation

Elastic potential energy theory

If we have a spring of constant K to which a force F that produces a Δx deformation is applied, we apply Hooke's law:

F=K*x Formula (1): The force F applied to the spring is proportional to the deformation x of the spring.

As the force is variable to calculate the work we define an average force

$F_{a} =\frac{F_{f}+F_{i} }{2}$ Formula (2)

Ff: final force

Fi: initial force

The work done on the spring is :

W = Fa*Δx

Fa : average force

Δx : displacement

$W = F_{a} (x_{f} -x_{i} )$ :Formula (3)

$x_{f}$ : final deformation

$x_{i}$ :initial deformation

Problem development

We calculate Ff and Fi , applying formula (1) :

$F_{f} = K*x_{f} =22\frac{N}{m} *0.7m =15.4N$

$F_{i} = K*x_{i} =22\frac{N}{m} *0.3m =6.6N$

We calculate average force applying formula (2):

$F_{a} =\frac{15.4N+6.2N}{2} = 11 N$

We calculate the work done on the spring applying formula (3) : :

W= 11N*(0.7m-0.3m) = 11N*0.4m=4.4 N*m = 4.4 Joule = 4.4 J

Work done in stages

Work is the change of elastic potential energy (ΔEp)

W=ΔEp

ΔEp= Epf-Epi

Epf= final potential energy

Epi=initial potential energy

$E_{pf} =\frac{1}{2} *k*x_{f}^{2}$

$E_{pi} =\frac{1}{2} *k*x_{i}^{2}$

$E_{pf} =\frac{1}{2} *22*0.7^{2} = 5.39 J$

$E_{pf} =\frac{1}{2} *22*0.3^{2} = 0.99 J$

W=ΔEp= 5.39 J-0.99 J = 4.4J
