A mass m is attached to a spring which is held stretched a distance x by a force f (fig. 7-28), and then released. the spring co
guapka [62]

Spring is stretched by force f to distance "x"

now here by force balance we can say

f = kx

k = \frac{f}{x}

now here we will we say that energy stored in the spring will convert into kinetic energy

\frac{1}{2} kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

\frac{f}{x} (x^2} = mv^2

now solving above equation we will have

v =\sqrt{ \frac{fx}{m}}

PART 2)

now for half of the extension again we can use energy conservation

\frac{1}{2}kx^2 - \frac{1}{2}k(x/2)^2 = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

\frac{3}{4}kx^2 = mv^2

\frac{3}{4}fx = mv^2

now the speed is given as

v = \sqrt{\frac{3fx}{4m}}

A movie stunt double is supposed to run across the top of a train (in the opposite direction that the train is moving) and just
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

3.49km/hr

Explanation:

This train is moving at 50km/hr

Distance = length of train + distance of tunnel

= 3 km + 40 km

= 43 km

Time taken by train to get to tunnel

Time = distance / velocity

Time = 43 km/50km perhour

= 0.86

How fast will stunt double have to run?

Velocity = 3km/0.86

= 3.49 km/hr

The stunt double will have to run as fast as 3.49 kilometer per hour

A tugboat is pulling a barge into a harbor. The barge is exerting a force of 3000 N against the tugboat.
laiz [17]

Available options are:

A. –4500 N

B. –2500 N

C. 2500 N

D. 4500 N

Answer:

-4500 N

Explanation:

Given that we have F₁ = 3000N? (force of the barge)

the force of the tugboat is F '

To pull the barge, the force of the tugboat must be greater than or equal to the force of the barge.

Hence, according to Newton's third law which states that for every action or force in nature, there is an opposite reaction.

Therefore considering the available option the correct answer is "- 4500N, " this is because it is greater than the force of the barge and it's in opposition to the force exerted.
