A swift blow with the hand can break a pine board. As the hand hits the board, the kinetic energy of the hand is trans- formed i

nto elastic potential energy of the bending board, if the board bends far enough, it breaks. Applying a force to the center of a particular pine board deflects the center of the board by a distance that increases in proportion to the fore. Ultimately the board breaks at an applied force of 800 N and a deflection of 1.2 cm.
a. To break the board with a blow from the hand, how fast must the hand be moving? Use 0.50 kg for the mass of the hand.
b. If the hand is moving this fast and comes to rest in a dis- tance of 1.2 cm, what is the average force on the hand?

Answer:

a) v = 4.4 m/s

b) F = 400 N

Explanation:

a) ½kx² = ½mv²

v = √(kx²/m)

F = kx

v = √(Fx/m)

v = √(800(0.012) / 0.5) = √19.2 = 4.3817...

b) Fd = ½mv²

F = mv²/2d

F = 0.5(19.2) / (2(0.012) = 400 N

If the position of a particle on the x-axis at time t is −5t2, then the average velocity of the particle for 0 ≤ t ≤ 3 is
Drupady [299]

Answer:

v = 15 m / s

Explanation:

In this exercise we are given the position function

          x = 5 t²

and we are asked for the average velocity in an interval between t = 0 and t= 3 s, which is defined by the displacement between the time interval

          v= \frac{v_{f} - v_{o} }{t_{f} - t_{o} }

let's look for the displacements

        t = 0     x₀ = 0 m

        t = 3     x_{f} = 5 3 2

                     x_{f} = 45 m

 

we substitute

           v = \frac{45 -0}{3 - 0}

           v = 15 m / s

What is the average speed of an object with a total distance traveled of 45 meters in 50 seconds
Anettt [7]

Answer: 0.9m/s

Explanation:

Use equation for speed:

V=S/t

S-distance; S=45m

t-time; t=50 s

V=S/t

V=45m/50s

V=0.9 m/s

"The ________ method can determine whether a string contains a value that can be converted to a specific data type before it is
dem82 [27]

Answer:

The method to determine whether a string contains a value that can be converted to a specific data type before it is converted to that data type

Explanation:

The Java string includes () method to check whether a particular sequence of character is the part of given sub string or not.

One string contain another string in Java or not.

The indexof() to check the string and substring in java

Hence java string include () method to check  whether a string contains a value that can be converted to a specific data type before it is converted to that data type
