Okay, so they want to basically Increase their grip, and they are taking advantage of the force of friction

Dwight uses a spring (k = 70 N/m) on a horizontal surface to make a launcher for model cars. The spring is attached to a holder

kramer

Part A)

As we know that spring force is given by

F = kx

here x = stretch in the spring from natural length

So here when spring reaches to its natural length

Force due to spring = 0

so acceleration = 0

Part b)

When spring is compressed from its natural length it will have elastic potential energy in it

so it is given by

$U = \frac{1}{2}kx^2$

now we know that there is no friction in it so maximum kinetic energy of the launcher must be equal to the elastic potential energy of the spring

$KE = \frac{1}{2}kx^2$

here we have

k = 70 N/m

x = 0.4 m

$KE = \frac{1}{2}(70)(0.4)^2$

$KE = 5.6 J$

Part c)

Now to find the speed we know that

$KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2$

$5.6 = \frac{1}{2}0.3v^2$

$v = 6.11 m/s$

so its speed is 6.11 m/s

A water pipe tapers down from an initial radius of R1 = 0.21 m to a final radius of R2 = 0.11 m. The water flows at a velocity v

Aleks [24]

Answer:

$0.116 m^3/s$

Explanation:

The volume flow rate of a fluid in a pipe is given by:

$Q=Av$

where

A is the cross-sectional area of the pipe

v is the speed of the fluid

In this problem, at the initial point we have

v = 0.84 m/s is the speed of the water

r = 0.21 m is the radius of the pipe, so the cross-sectional area is

$A=\pi r^2 = \pi (0.21 m)^2 =0.138 m^2$

So, the volume flow rate is

$Q=(0.138 m^2)(0.84 m/s)=0.116 m^3/s$

Would a vibrating proton produce an electromagnetic wave

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

No,

Explanation:

An electromagnetic wave is made of vibrating electric and magnetic fields that continually induce each other; matter is not needed for this to occur.
