Particle A and particle B are held together with a compressed spring between them. When they are released, the spring pushes the

m apart, and they then fly off in opposite directions, free of the spring. The mass of A is 8.00 times the mass of B, and the energy stored in the spring was 73 J. Assume that the spring has negligible mass and that all its stored energy is transferred to the particles. (a) Once that transfer is complete, what is the kinetic energy of particle A

Answer:

 K_a = 8,111 J

Explanation:

This is a collision exercise, let's define the system as formed by the two particles A and B, in this way the forces during the collision are internal and the moment is conserved

initial instant. Just before dropping the particles

          p₀ = 0

final moment

          p_f = m_a v_a + m_b v_b

          p₀ = p_f

          0 = m_a v_a + m_b v_b

tells us that

          m_a = 8 m_b

         

           0 = 8 m_b v_a + m_b v_b

           v_b = - 8 v_a                    (1)

indicate that the transfer is complete, therefore the kinematic energy is conserved

starting point

           Em₀ = K₀ = 73 J

final point. After separating the body

          Em_f = K_f = ½ m_a v_a² + ½ m_b v_b²

           K₀ = K_f

           73 = ½ m_a (v_a² + v_b² / 8)

           

we substitute equation 1

           73 = ½ m_a (v_a² + 8² v_a² / 8)

           73 = ½ m_a (9 v_a²)

           73/9 = ½ m_a (v_a²) = K_a

            K_a = 8,111 J

A 2-kW electric heater takes 15 min to boil a quantity of water. If this is done once a day and power costs 10 cents per kWh, wh
frozen [14]

Answer:

<h2> $1.50</h2>

Explanation:

Given data

power P= 2 kW

time t= 15 min to hours = 15/60= 1/4 h

cost of power consumption per kWh= 10 cent = $0.1

We are expected to compute the cost of operating the heater for 30 days

but let us computer the energy consumption for one day

Energy of heater  for one day= 2* 1/4 = 0.5 kWh

the cost of operating the heater for 30 days= 0.5*0.1*30= $1.50

<u><em>Hence it will cost  $1.50 for 30 days operation</em></u>

A plate carries a charge of 3.8 UC, while a rod carries a charge of 1.9 C. How many electrons must be transferred from the plate
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=5.94*10^{18}electrons

Explanation:

The total charge is distributed over the two objects:

Q_{total}/2=(3.8*10^{-6}C+1.9C)/2=0.9500019C\\

The plate and the rod must have Q_{total}/2\\. So the charge transferred from the plate to the rod is:

Q_{transfered}=3.8*10^{-6}C-Q_{total}/2=3.8*10^{-6}C-0.9500019C=-0.9499981C\\

Number of electrons:

N_{electrons}=Q_{transfered}/q_{electron}=-0.9499981C/(-1.6*10^{-19}C)=5.94*10^{18}electrons

State the law of conservation of energy​
storchak [24]

Answer:

In physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy of an isolated system remains constant; it is said to be conserved over time. ... For instance, chemical energy is converted to kinetic energy when a stick of dynamite explodes.

A projectile is shot at an angle 45 degrees to the horizontalnear the surface of the earth but in the absence of air resistance.
juin [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

For first case

launch angle \theta =45^{\circ}C

at highest point h=150 m/s

150=u\cos 45

u=\frac{150}{\cos 45}=212.132 m/s

For second case

\theta _2=37^{\circ}C

at highest Point velocity is u\cos \theta _2

=212.132\times \cos 37

=169.41 m/s

as there is no acceleration in x direction therefore horizontal velocity is same
