Answer:
<em> The distance required = 16.97 cm</em>
Explanation:
Hook's Law
From Hook's law, the potential energy stored in a stretched spring
E = 1/2ke² ......................... Equation 1
making e the subject of the equation,
e = √(2E/k)........................ Equation 2
Where E = potential Energy of the stretched spring, k = elastic constant of the spring, e = extension.
Given: k = 450 N/m, e = 12 cm = 0.12 m.
E = 1/2(450)(0.12)²
E = 225(0.12)²
E = 3.24 J.
When the potential energy is doubled,
I.e E = 2×3.24
E = 6.48 J.
Substituting into equation 2,
e = √(2×6.48/450)
e = √0.0288
e = 0.1697 m
<em>e = 16.97 cm</em>
<em>Thus the distance required = 16.97 cm</em>
Hi I need help with some questions I have on a quiz / test
<u>
Answer
</u>
The impulse on the second trial is smaller is smaller than in the first trial.
<u>Explanation
</u>
Impose of a body is that change in momentum during a time interval. If the change of momentum takes longer then, the impulse of a force is less. I a moving object hits a hard surface the rate of change of momentum is very high. e.i in the first trial, the egg breaks because it hits the hard surface(ground).
In the second trial, the foam cushion absorbs the shock and prolongs the time of impact with the egg hence decreasing the impulse.
Answer:
These deep-ocean currents are driven by differences in the water's density, which is controlled by temperature (thermo) and salinity (haline). This process is known as thermohaline circulation.
Explanation:
To solve this exercise, it is necessary to apply the concepts of conservation of the moment especially in objects that experience an inelastic colposition.
They are expressed as,
Where,
= mass of the skier
= mass of the cat
= initial velocity of skier
= initial velocity of cat
= final velocity of both
Re-arrange to find V_f we have,
Once the final velocity is found it is possible to calculate the change in kinetic energy, so
Therefore the amount of kinetic energy converted in to internal energy is 819J
