block of mass 0.5kg on a horizontal surface is attached to a horizontal spring of negligible mass and spring constant 50N/m . Th

e other end of the spring is attached to a wall, and there is negligible friction between the block and the horizontal surface. When the spring is unstretched, the block is located at x=0m . The block is then pulled to x=0.3m and released from rest so that the block-spring system oscillates between x=−0.3m and x=0.3m . What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the block and the direction of the net force exerted on the block when it is located at x=0.3m ?

Answer:

Explanation:

The mass of the block is 0.5kg

m = 0.5kg.

The spring constant is 50N/m

k =50N/m.

When the spring is stretch to 0.3m

e=0.3m

The spring oscillates from -0.3 to 0.3m

Therefore, amplitude is A=0.3m

Magnitude of acceleration and the direction of the force

The angular frequency (ω) is given as

ω = √(k/m)

ω = √(50/0.5)

ω = √100

ω = 10rad/s

The acceleration of a SHM is given as

a = -ω²A

a = -10²×0.3

a = -30m/s²

Since we need the magnitude of the acceleration,

Then, a = 30m/s²

To know the direction of net force let apply newtons second law

ΣFnet = ma

Fnet = 0.5 × -30

Fnet = -15N

Fnet = -15•i N

The net force is directed to the negative direction of the x -axis

A 6 kg box with initial speed 5 m/s slides across the floor and comes to a stop after 1.9 s. What is the coefficient of kinetic
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

\mu_k=0.27

Explanation:

According to the free body diagram, in this case, we have:

\sum F_x:-F_k=ma\\\sum F_y:N=mg

Recall that the force of friction is given by:

F_k=\mu_k N

Replacing and solving for the coefficient of kinetic friction:

-\mu_kN=ma\\-\mu_k(mg)=ma\\\mu_k=-\frac{a}{g}

We have an uniformly accelerated motion. Thus, the acceleration is defined as:

a=\frac{v_f-v_0}{t}\\a=\frac{0-5\frac{m}{s}}{1.9s}\\a=-2.63\frac{m}{s^2}

Finally, we calculate \mu_k:

\mu_k=-\frac{-2.63\frac{m}{s^2}}{9.8\frac{m}{s^2}}\\\mu_k=0.27

Answer:

The average velocity has magnitude = 10 km/h , direction: east

Explanation:

In order to find the average velocity of the car we need to know the final and initial positions, and the time that took to get from one to the other.

Notice that since its movement was 60 km straight east and then from there 40 km straight west, the car is positioned at 20 km to the east of its initial departure point. therefore the vector change in position is a vector 20 km in magnitude, and direction towards the east.

Since it took the car a total of 1.33 hours plus 0.67 hours to reach its final position, the total time elapsed is: 1.33 + 0.67 hours = 2 hours.

Then,the velocity vector has magnitude; 20 km / 2 hours = 10 km/hour

As we mentioned above. the direction of the velocity vector is east.
