A 1.1-kg object is suspended from a vertical spring whose spring constant is 120 N/m. (a) Find the amount by which the spring is

stretched from its unstrained length. (b) The object is pulled straight down by an additional distance of 0.20 m and released from rest. Find the speed with which the object passes through its original position on the way up.

Answer:

e = 0.0898m

v = 2.07m/s

Explanation:

a) According to Hooke's law

F = ke

e is the extension

k is the spring constant

Since F = mg

mg = ke

e = mg/k

Substitute the given value

e = 1.1(9.8)/120

e = 10.78/120

e = 0.0898m

Hence it is stretched by 0.0898m from its unstrained length

2) Total Energy = PE+KE+Elastic potential

Total Energy = mgh +1/2mv²+1/2ke²

Substitute the given value

5.0= 1.1(9.8)(0.2)+1/2(1.1)v²+1/2(120)(0.0898)²

Solve for v

5.0 = 2.156+0.55v²+0.48338

5.0-2.156-0.48338= 0.55v²

2.36 =0.55v²

v² = 2.36/0.55

v² = 4.29

v ,= √4.29

v = 2.07m/s

Hence the required velocity is 9.28m/s

A rainbow viewed from an airplane may form a complete circle. Where will the shadow of the airplane appear? Explain.
attashe74 [19]
The position of the sun must be at the horizon in order for the rainbow to appear.
The relative positions of the sun and plane make the rainbow appear as a full circle.
However, if the sun is at the horizon, the shadow of the plane will be behind the plane, not below it; this means that the shadow of the plane will not fall on the earth.

A total Δν of 15 km/s is required to achieve an interplanetary mission. The proposed rocket has two stages. The first stage alon
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

102000 kg

Explanation:

Given:

A total Δν = 15 km/s

first stage mass = 1000 tonnes

specific impulse of liquid rocket =  300 s

Mass flow rate of liquid fuel = 1500 kg/s

specific impulse of solid fuel = 250 s

Mass flow of solid fuel = 200 kg/s

First stage burn time = 1 minute = 1 × 60 seconds = 60 seconds

Now,

Mass flow of liquid fuel in 1 minute = Mass flow rate × Burn time

or

Mass flow of liquid fuel in 1 minute = 1500 × 60 = 90000 kg

Also,

Mass flow of solid fuel in 1 minute = Mass flow rate × Burn time

or

Mass flow of solid fuel in 1 minute = 200 × 60 = 12000 kg

Therefore,

The total jettisoned mass flow of the fuel in first stage

= 90000 kg +  12000 kg

= 102000 kg

Why is kinetic friction less than static?
alekssr [168]
The kinetic friction is usually not greater than the applied force. Keep applying more force until you reach a maximum value for the static friction

ohaa [14]
A is 2nd derivative of position. And velocity is 1st derivative of position.
If 2nd derivative is 2t -9
Then 1st derivative = t^2 - 9t which is velocity.
And position is 1/3 * t^3 - 9/2 * t^2
Put 9 for t's.
