Answer:

the energy of the spring at the start is 400 J.

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the box, m = 8.0 kg

final speed of the box, v = 10 m/s

Apply the principle of conservation of energy to determine the energy of the spring at the start;

Final Kinetic energy of the box = initial elastic potential energy of the spring

K.E = Ux

¹/₂mv² = Ux

¹/₂ x 8 x 10² = Ux

400 J = Ux

Therefore, the energy of the spring at the start is 400 J.

A 4.0-kilogram ball moving at 8.0 m/s to the right collides with a 1.0-kilogram ball at rest. After the collision, the 4.0-kilog
Illusion [34]
Its about momentum. Momentum (p)=mass(m)xvelocity(v)
So for the first ball P=4x8=32kgm/s
For the second the momentum is zero as it is still.
So overall momentum its 32kgm/s
Momentum has to be conserved
After the collision the momentum of the 4kg ball is 4x4.8=19.2kgm/s
As momentum is conserved 32-19.2=12.8kgm/s remaining
So rearrange for velocity so v=p/m=12.8/1=12.8m/s for the 1kg ball

These questions !plz !! i need help!!!

(6) Wagon B is at rest so it has no momentum at the start. If <em>v</em> is the velocity of the wagons locked together, then

(140 kg) (15 m/s) = (140 kg + 200 kg) <em>v</em>

==>   <em>v</em> ≈ 6.2 m/s

(7) False. If you double the time it takes to perform the same amount of work, then you <u>halve</u> the power output:

<em>E</em> <em>/</em> (2<em>t </em>) = 1/2 × <em>E/t</em> = 1/2 <em>P</em>

A sample contains 16 g of a radioactive isotope. how much radioactive
mafiozo [28]

After one half-life, 8 g of radioactive isotope will remain in the sample.

<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>

The act of producing radiation spontaneously is known as radioactivity. This is accomplished by an unstable atomic nucleus that want to give up some energy in order to move to a more stable form.

The following formula is used to compute the number of half lives elapsed:

\rm N=\frac{N_0}{2^n} \\\\ N=\frac{16}{2} \\\\ N= 8 \ gram

Hence,8 gram of radioactive isotope remains in the sample after 1 half-life.

To learn more about the radioactivity, refer  to the link;
