A lightweight vertical spring of force constant k has its lower end mounted on a table. You compress the spring by a distance d,

place a block of mass m on top of the compressed spring, and then release the block. The spring launches the block upward, and the block rises to a maximum height some distance above the now-relaxed spring. Find the speed of the block just as it loses contact with the spring.

Answer:

v=d\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

Explanation:

In order to solve this problem, we can do an analysis of the energies involved in the system. Basically the addition of the initial potential energy of the spring and the kinetic energy of the mass should be the same as the addition of the final potential energy of the spring and the kinetic energy of the block. So we get the following equation:

U_{0}+K_{0}=U_{f}+K_{f}

In this case, since the block is moving from rest, the initial kinetic energy is zero. When the block loses contact with the spring, the final potential energy of the spring will be zero, so the equation simplifies to:

U_{0}=K_{f}

The initial potential energy of the spring is given by the equation:

U_{0}=\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}

the Kinetic energy of the block is then given by the equation:

K_{f}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}

so we can now set them both equal to each other, so we get:

=\frac{1}{2}kd^{2}=\frac{1}{2}mv_{f}^{2}

This new equation can be simplified if we multiplied both sides of the equation by a 2, so we get:

kd^{2}=mv_{f}^{2}

so now we can solve this for the final velocity, so we get:

v=d\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

What type of interaction allows the sidewalk to heat up and cook the egg? 
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

Adsorption

Explanation:

Sidewalk cooking of egg is very popular in America. In summer people release fireworks in night sky and cook egg on the concrete sidewalk to check the level of temperature. When sunlight fall on the sidewalk most of the light is reflected back but some darker material adsorbs some photon, and when these photons are transferred to egg molecules it causes vibration among them and produce heat and cook egg.

How do you determine the speed or velocity of an object using a distance vs. time graph
Taya2010 [7]
The speed of an object can be determined from the distance vs time graph.

You know that speed = distance/time

in the graph, distance/time = slope of the curve.

So SPEED IS GIVEN BY THE SLOPE of the curve in the graph.

● If the distance vs time curve is a straight line, parallel to time axis(x-axis), slope is 0. That means speed is 0. So the object is at rest.

● If the distance vs time curve is a straight line, with some non-zero slope; That means speed is nonzero and constant. So the object is in uniform motion.

● If the distance vs time curve is a curved, the slope is changing. That means speed is changing. So the object is in an accelerated motion.

Un neumático sin cámara, soporta una presión de 1.5 atm cuando la temperatura ambiente es de 300°K. ¿Qué presión llegará a sopor
arlik [135]

Answer:

El neumático soportará una presión de 1.7 atm.

Explanation:

Podemos encontrar la presión final del neumático usando la ecuación del gas ideal:

PV = nRT

En donde:

P: es la presión

V: es el volumen

n: es el número de moles del gas

R: es la constante de gases ideales

T: es la temperatura

Cuando el neumático soporta la presión inicial tenemos:

P₁ = 1.5 atm

T₁ = 300 K

V_{1} = \frac{nRT_{1}}{P_{1}}  (1)  

La presión cuando T = 67 °C es:

P_{2} = \frac{nRT_{2}}{V_{2}}   (2)

Dado que V₁ = V₂  (el volumen del neumático no cambia), al introducir la ecuación (1) en la ecuación (2) podemos encontrar la presión final:

P_{2} = \frac{nRT_{2}}{V_{2}} = \frac{nRT_{2}}{\frac{nRT_{1}}{P_{1}}} = \frac{P_{1}T_{2}}{T_{1}} = \frac{1.5 atm*(67 + 273)K}{300 K} = 1.7 atm  

Por lo tanto, si en el transcurso de un viaje las ruedas alcanzan una temperatura de 67 ºC, el neumático soportará una presión de 1.7 atm.

Espero que te sea de utilidad!
