Freeze wedging is caused by the repeated freeze-thaw. Frost wedging occurs as the result of 9 % expansion of water when it is converted to ice. Cracks filled with water are forced further apart when it freezes. cycle.

A 25 kg block is held against a compressed spring and then the spring is allowed to decompress giving the block a velocity. The

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

h=18.05 cm

Explanation:

Given that

m= 25 kg

K= 1300 N/m

x=26.4 cm

θ= 19.5 ∘

When the block just leave the spring then the speed of block = v m/s

From energy conservation

$\dfrac{1}{2}Kx^2=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

$Kx^2=mv^2$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{kx^2}{m}}$

By putting the values

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{kx^2}{m}}$

$v=\sqrt{\dfrac{1300\times 0.264^2}{25}}$

v=1.9 m/s

When block reach at the maximum height(h) position then the final speed of the block will be zero.

We know that

$V_f^2=V_i^2-2gh$

By putting the values

$0^2=1.9^2-2\times 10\times h$

h=0.1805 m

h=18.05 cm

Calculated the measurement uncertainty for Kinetic Energy when :mass = 1.3[kg] +/- 0.4[kg]velocity= 5.2 [m/s] +/- 0.2 [m/s]KE= 1

andriy [413]

Answer:

$\rm KE\pm \Delta KE = 17.6\pm 6.8\ J.$

Explanation:

Given:

Mass, $\rm m\pm\Delta m = 1.3\pm 0.4\ kg.$

Velocity, $\rm v\pm \Delta v = 5.2\pm 0.2\ m/s.$

where,

$\rm \Delta m,\ \Delta v$ are the uncertainties in mass and velocity respectively.

The kinetic energy is given by

$\rm KE = \dfrac 12 mv^2 = \dfrac 12 \times 1.3\times 5.2^2=17.576\approx 17.6\ J.$

The uncertainty in kinetic energy is given as:

$\rm \dfrac{\Delta KE}{KE}=\dfrac{\Delta m}{m}+\dfrac{2\Delta v}{v}\\\dfrac{\Delta KE}{17.6}=\dfrac{0.4}{1.3}+\dfrac{2\times 0.2}{5.2}\\\dfrac{\Delta KE}{17.6}=0.384\\\Rightarrow \Delta KE = 17.6\times 0.384 = 6.7854\ J\approx6.8\ J\\\\Thus,\\\\KE\pm \Delta KE = 17.6\pm 6.8\ J.$
