A 17.6-kg block rests on a horizontal table and is attached to one end of a massless, horizontal spring. By pulling horizontally
leonid [27]

In order get the block up to a speed of 3.58 m/s in 1.77 s, it must undergo an acceleration <em>a</em> of

<em>a</em> = (3.58 m/s) / (1.77 s) ≈ 2.02 m/s²

When the spring is getting pulled, Newton's second law tells us

• the net vertical force is

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>n</em> - <em>mg</em> = 0

where ∑ <em>F</em> is the net force, <em>n</em> is the magnitude of the normal force, and <em>mg</em> is the weight of the block - it follows that <em>n</em> = <em>mg</em> ; and

• the net horizontal force is

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>F</em> - <em>f</em> = <em>ma</em>

where <em>F</em> is the applied force, <em>f</em> is kinetic friction, <em>m</em> is the block's mass, and <em>a</em> is the acceleration found earlier. <em>F</em> stretches the spring by <em>x</em> = 0.250 m, so we have

<em>F</em> - <em>f</em> = <em>kx</em> - <em>µn</em> = <em>kx</em> - <em>µmg</em> = <em>ma</em>

where <em>k</em> is the spring constant and <em>µ</em> is the coefficient of kinetic friction.

When the block is being pulled at a constant speed, Newton's second law says

• the net vertical force is still

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>n</em> - <em>mg</em> = 0

so that <em>n</em> = <em>mg</em> again; and

• the net horizontal force is

∑ <em>F</em> = <em>F</em> - <em>f</em> = 0

This time, <em>F</em> stretches the spring by <em>y</em> = 0.0544 m, so we have

<em>F</em> - <em>f</em> = <em>ky</em> - <em>µmg</em> = 0

Solve the equations in boldface for <em>k</em> and <em>µ</em> :

<em>kx</em> - <em>µmg</em> = <em>ma</em>

<em>ky</em> - <em>µmg</em> = 0

==>   <em>k</em> (<em>x</em> - <em>y</em>) = <em>ma</em>

==>   <em>k</em> = <em>ma</em> / (<em>x</em> - <em>y</em>)

==>   <em>k</em> = (17.6 kg) (2.02 m/s²) / (0.250 m - 0.0544 m) ≈ 182 N/m

Then

<em>ky</em> - <em>µmg</em> = 0

==>   <em>µ</em> = <em>ky </em>/ (<em>mg</em>)

==>   <em>µ</em> = (182 N/m) (0.0544 m) / ((17.6 kg) <em>g</em>) ≈ 0.0574

In a binary star system, an unseen component is found to have 8 solar masses. It would be visible if the system were a normal st
maksim [4K]

Answer:

Black Hole

Explanation:

A black hole is a very dense and massive stellar object, which has a field of gravity so large that not even light can escape it.

Since it does not emit light, <u>we cannot see them directly</u>, hence the name of black hole.

So in this case,<u> if the object has a mass of 8 solar masses that is enough to form a black hole</u>, and <u>also cannot be seen</u>, all of this indicates that the object we are talking about is a black hole.

It should be mentioned that although these objects do not emit light, because it cannot escape due to the immense force of gravity, black holes can be detected by a type of radiation emitted on their event horizon due to quantum effects called Hawking radiation .

A 0.560 kg snowball is fired from a cliff 14.2 m high with an initial velocity of 13.3 m/s, directed 26.0° above the horizontal.
enot [183]

Answer:

a) v = 21.34 m/s

b) v = 21.34 m/s

c) v = 21.34 m/s

Explanation:

Mass of the snowball, m = 0.560 kg

Height of the cliff, h = 14.2 m

Initial velocity of the ball, u = 13.3 m/s

θ = 26°

The speed of the slow ball as it reaches the ground, v = ?

The initial Kinetic energy of the snow ball, KE_{0}  = 0.5 mu^{2}

Potential energy of the snow ball at the given height, PE = mgh

Final Kinetic energy of the ball as it reaches the ground, KE_{f} = 0.5mv^{2}

a) Using the principle of energy conservation,

KE_{0} + PE = KE_{f} \\0.5mu^{2} + mgh = 0.5mv^{2}\\v^{2} =2( 0.5u^{2} + gh)\\v^{2} =u^{2} + 2gh\\v = \sqrt{u^{2} + 2gh} \\v = \sqrt{13.3^{2} + 2*9.8*14.2}\\v = 21.34 m/s

b) The speed remains v = 21.34 m/s since it is not a function of the angle of launch

c)The principle of energy conservation used cancels out the mass of the object, therefore the speed is not dependent on mass

v = 21. 34 m/s
