Answer:
a. A = 0.735 m
b. T = 0.73 s
c. ΔE = 120 J decrease
d. The missing energy has turned into interned energy in the completely inelastic collision
Explanation:
a.
4 kg * 10 m /s + 6 kg * 0 m/s = 10 kg* vmax
vmax = 4.0 m/s
¹/₂ * m * v²max = ¹/₂ * k * A²
m * v² = k * A² ⇒ 10 kg * 4 m/s = 100 N/m * A²
A = √1.6 m ² = 1.26 m
At = 2.0 m - 1.26 m = 0.735 m
b.
T = 2π * √m / k ⇒ T = 2π * √4.0 kg / 100 N/m = 1.26 s
T = 2π *√ 10 / 100 *s² = 1.99 s
T = 1.99 s -1.26 s = 0.73 s
c.
E = ¹/₂ * m * v²max =
E₁ = ¹/₂ * 4.0 kg * 10² m/s = 200 J
E₂ = ¹/₂ * 10 * 4² = 80 J
200 J - 80 J = 120 J decrease
d.
The missing energy has turned into interned energy in the completely inelastic collision
B. Sound, because everything else sits still and sound waves move
The capacitance of a capacitor is the ratio of the stored charge to its potential difference, i.e.
C = Q/ΔV
C is the capacitance
Q is the stored charge
ΔV is the potential difference
Rearrange the equation:
ΔV = Q/C
We also know the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is given by:
C = κε₀A/d
C is the capacitance
κ is the capacitor's dielectric constant
ε₀ is the electric constant
A is the area of the plates
d is the plate separation
If we substitute C:
ΔV = Qd/(κε₀A)
We assume the stored charge and the area of the plates don't change. Then if we double the plate spacing, i.e. we double the value of d, then the potential difference ΔV is also doubled.
