If it requires 3.0 J of work to stretch a particular spring by 2.1 cm from its equilibrium length, how much more work will be re
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

Work done = 13605.44

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

For elongation of 2.1 cm (0.021 m) work done by the spring is 3.0 J

The relation between Energy (U) and the elongation (s) is given as:

U = \frac{1}{2}kx^2   ................(1)

where,

k is the spring constant

on substituting the valeus in the above equation, we get

3.0 = \frac{1}{2}k\times0.021^2

or

k = 13605.44 N/m

now

for the elongation x = 2.1 + 4.1 = 6.2 cm = 0.062 m

using the equation 1, we have

U = \frac{1}{2}\times13605.44\times (0.062)^2

or

U = 26.149 J

Also,

Work done = change in energy

or

W = 26.149 - 3.0 = 23.149 J

A capacitor consists of two parallel plates, each with an area of 17.0 cm2 , separated by a distance of 0.150 cm . The material
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

a)   C = 4,012 10⁻¹⁴ F, b)  Q = 1.6 10⁻¹¹ C , c)   U = 3.21 10⁻¹¹ J

Explanation:

a) The capacitance of a capacitor is

       C = k e₀ A / d

Let's calculate

       C = 4 8.85 10⁻¹² 17 10⁻⁴ / 0.150 10⁻²

       C = 4,012 10⁻¹⁴ F

b) let's look  the charge

        C = Q / ΔV

         Q = C ΔV

         Q = 4,012 10⁻¹⁴ 400

         Q = 1.6 10⁻¹¹ C

c) The stored energy

        U = ½ C ΔV²

        U = ½ 4,012 10⁻¹⁴  400²

        U = 3.21 10⁻¹¹ J

A halfback on an apparent breakaway for a touchdown is tackled from behind. If the halfback has a mass of 98 kg and was moving a
uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

The mutual speed immediately after the touchdown-saving tackle is 4.80 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of halfback = 98 kg

Speed of halfback= 4.2 m/s

Mass of corner back = 85 kg

Speed of corner back = 5.5 m/s

We need to calculate their mutual speed immediately after the touchdown-saving tackle

Using conservation of momentum

m_{h}v_{h}+m_{c}v_{c}=m_{h+c}v_{h+c}

Where, m_{h}= mass of halfback

m_{c}=mass of corner back

v_{h}= velocity of halfback

v_{c}= velocity of corner back

Put the value into the formula

98\times4.2+85\times5.5=(98+85)\times v

v=\dfrac{98\times4.2+85\times5.5}{98+85}

v=4.80\ m/s

Hence, The mutual speed immediately after the touchdown-saving tackle is 4.80 m/s
