A 5.00-kg object is attached to one end of a horizontal spring that has a negligible mass and a spring constant of 280 N/m. The

other end of the spring is fixed to a wall. The spring is compressed by 10.0 cm from its equilibrium position and released from rest.
1) What is the speed of the object when it is 8.00 cm from equilibrium? (Express your answer to three significant figures.)
2) What is the speed when the object is 5.00 cm from equilibrium? (Express your answer to three significant figures.)
3) What is the speed when the object is at the equilibrium position? (Express your answer to three significant figures.)

Answer:

1) v = 0.45 m/s

2) v = 0.65 m/s

3) v = 0.75 m/s  

Explanation:

1) We can find the speed of the object by conservation of energy:

E_{i} = E_{f}

\frac{1}{2}kx^{2} = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

Where:

k: is the spring constant = 280 N/m

v: is the speed of the object =?

m: is the mass of the object = 5.00 kg

x: is the displacement of the spring

\frac{1}{2}280N/m(0.10 m)^{2} = \frac{1}{2}280N/m(0.08 m)^{2} + \frac{1}{2}5.00 kgv^{2}                              

v = \sqrt{\frac{280N/m(0.10 m)^{2} - 280N/m(0.08 m)^{2}}{5.00 kg}} = 0.45 m/s

2) When the object is 5.00 cm (0.050 m) from equilibrium, the speed of the object is:

\frac{1}{2}kx^{2} = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}    

\frac{1}{2}280N/m(0.10 m)^{2} = \frac{1}{2}280N/m(0.05 m)^{2} + \frac{1}{2}5.00 kgv^{2}      

v = \sqrt{\frac{280N/m(0.10 m)^{2} - 280N/m(0.05 m)^{2}}{5.00 kg}} = 0.65 m/s      

 

3) When the object is at the equilibrium position, the speed of the object is:

\frac{1}{2}kx^{2} = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2} + \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}    

\frac{1}{2}280N/m(0.10 m)^{2} = \frac{1}{2}280N/m(0 m)^{2} + \frac{1}{2}5.00 kgv^{2}      

v = \sqrt{\frac{280N/m(0.10 m)^{2}}{5.00 kg}} = 0.75 m/s

I hope it helps you!

What is the wavelength of 7.0-TeV protons? A) 550 nm B) 750 nm C) 5.4x10^-15 m D) 3.2x10^-18 m E) 1.8x10^-19 m
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

1.776 x 10^-19 m

Explanation:

Energy, E = 7 TeV

Let λ be the wavelength.

Energy = h c / λ

Where, h is the Planks,s constant and c be the velocity of light

h = 6.63 x 10-^-34 Js

c = 3 x 10^8 m/s

Convert TeV into J

1 TeV = 1.6 x 10^-7 J

So, E = 7 x 1.6 x 10^-7 = 11.2 x 10^-7 J

11.2 x 10^-7 = (6.63 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / λ

λ = 1.776 x 10^-19 m
