Answer:
The speed of the block is 8.2 m/s
Explanation:
Given;
mass of block, m = 2.1 kg
height above the top of the spring, h = 5.5 m
First, we determine the spring constant based on the principle of conservation of potential energy
¹/₂Kx² = mg(h +x)
¹/₂K(0.25)² = 2.1 x 9.8(5.5 +0.25)
0.03125K = 118.335
K = 118.335 / 0.03125
K = 3786.72 N/m
Total energy stored in the block at rest is only potential energy given as:
E = U = mgh
U = 2.1 x 9.8 x 5.5 = 113.19 J
Work done in compressing the spring to 15.0 cm:
W = ¹/₂Kx² = ¹/₂ (3786.72)(0.15)² = 42.6 J
This is equal to elastic potential energy stored in the spring,
Then, kinetic energy of the spring is given as:
K.E = E - W
K.E = 113.19 J - 42.6 J
K.E = 70.59 J
To determine the speed of the block due to this energy:
KE = ¹/₂mv²
70.59 = ¹/₂ x 2.1 x v²
70.59 = 1.05v²
v² = 70.59 / 1.05
v² = 67.229
v = √67.229
v = 8.2 m/s
Answer:
Current = 10 Amperes.
Explanation:
Given the following dat;
Quantity of charge, Q = 36 kilocoulombs (KC) = 36 * 1000 = 36000C
Time = 1 hour to seconds = 60*60 = 3600 seconds
To find the current;
Quantity of charge = current * time
Substituting in the equation
36000 = current * 3600
Current = 36000/3600
Current = 10 Amperes.
Answer: W = 294 J
Explanation: Solution:
Work is expressed as the product of force and the distance of the object.
W = Fd where F = mg
W= Fd
= mg d
= 15 kg ( 9.8 m/s²) ( 2m )
= 294 J
Sodium (Na) is a Alkali metal so that's the answer
Answer:
0.25 m.
Explanation:
We'll begin by calculating the spring constant of the spring.
From the diagram, we shall used any of the weight with the corresponding extention to determine the spring constant. This is illustrated below:
Force (F) = 0.1 N
Extention (e) = 0.125 m
Spring constant (K) =?
F = Ke
0.1 = K x 0.125
Divide both side by 0.125
K = 0.1/0.125
K = 0.8 N/m
Therefore, the force constant, K of spring is 0.8 N/m
Now, we can obtain the number in gap 1 in the diagram above as follow:
Force (F) = 0.2 N
Spring constant (K) = 0.8 N/m
Extention (e) =..?
F = Ke
0.2 = 0.8 x e
Divide both side by 0.8
e = 0.2/0.8
e = 0.25 m
Therefore, the number that will complete gap 1is 0.25 m.
