A light horizontal spring has a spring constant of 167 N/m. A 2.77 kg block is pressed against one end of the spring, compressin

g the spring 0.132 m. After the block is released, the block moves 0.284 m to the right before coming to
rest. The acceleration of gravity is 9.81 m/s^2
What is the coefficient of kinetic friction between the horizontal surface and the block?

Answer:

μ = 0.189

Explanation:

The spring potential energy will convert to work of friction

    Fd = ½kx²

μmgd = ½kx²

       μ = kx²/2mgd

       μ = 167(0.132²) / (2(2.77)(9.81)(0.284))

       μ = 0.18852424...

If four students separately measure the density of a rock, and they all have very low percent
lesya692 [45]

Answer:

Their measured results are closer to the exact or true value. Hence, their measured value is considered to be more accurate.

Explanation:

Considering the situation described above, the accuracy of a measured value depicts how closely a measured value is to the accurate value.

Hence, since the students' measured values have very low percent differences, it shows the similarity of computations or estimates to the actual values, which in turn offers a smaller measurement error.

Therefore, their measured results are closer to the exact or true value, which implies that their measured value is considered to be more accurate.

Assuming that the uncertainty in mass is negligible, and the uncertainty in velocity is 5 %, what is the uncertainty in the mome
Flura [38]

Answer:

 Δp = 0.05 p

Explanation:

The moment is

      p = m v

The uncertainty of the moment is

       Δp = dp/dm Δm + dp/dv Δv

Like the uncertainty in the mass is zero

       Δm = 0

       ΔP = m Δv

We divide for the moment

       Δp / p = Δv / v

  They do not indicate that Δv / v = 0.05

       Δp / p = 0.05

       Δp = 0.05 p

In the case of a system consisting of two cars

      p = m₁ v₁ + m₂ v₂

     Δp = dp / dv₁ Δv₁ + dp / dv₂ Δv₂

     Δp = m₁ Δv₁ + m₂ Δv₂

     Δv₁ / v₁ = 0.05

     Δv₁ = 0.05 v₁

     Δv₂ / v₂ = 0.05

     Δv₂ = 0.05 v₂

We replace

       Δp = m₁ 0.05 v₁ + m₂ 0.05 v₂

       Δp = 0.05 p

Your destroyer has a RADAR antenna height of 40 m. Using RADAR, what is the maximum detection range of a patrol boat with a mast
Lisa [10]

Answer:

The maximum detection range is 39.75 km

Explanation:

Given that;

Antenna height h1 = 40 m

Target height  ( patrol boat mast ) h2 = 11 m

Using RADAR, what is the maximum detection range = ?

Using RADAR

we know that; Maximum detection range = (√17h1 + √17h2) km

where h1 and h2 are heights of the antenna and target height in meters

so we substitute in our values

Maximum detection range = (√(17 × 40) + √(17 × 11)) km

Maximum detection range = (√680 + √187) km

Maximum detection range = (26.0768 + 13.6747) km

Maximum detection range = (26.0768 + 13.6747) km

Maximum detection range = 39.75 km

Therefore, The maximum detection range is 39.75 km
