Answer:
The maximum potential energy of the system is 0.2 J
Explanation:
Hi there!
When the spring is stretched, it acquires potential energy. When released, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. If there is no friction nor any dissipative forces, all the potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy according to the energy conservation theorem.
The equation of elastic potential energy (EPE) is the following:
EPE = 1/2 · k · x²
Where:
k = spring constant.
x = stretching distance.
The elastic potential energy is maximum when the block has no kinetic energy, just before releasing it.
Then:
EPE = 1/2 · 40 N/m · (0.1 m)²
EPE = 0.2 J
The maximum potential energy of the system is 0.2 J
Answer:
we learned that an object that is vibrating is acted upon by a restoring force. The restoring force causes the vibrating object to slow down as it moves away from the equilibrium position and to speed up as it approaches the equilibrium position. It is this restoring force that is responsible for the vibration. So what forces act upon a pendulum bob? And what is the restoring force for a pendulum? There are two dominant forces acting upon a pendulum bob at all times during the course of its motion. There is the force of gravity that acts downward upon the bob. It results from the Earth's mass attracting the mass of the bob. And there is a tension force acting upward and towards the pivot point of the pendulum. The tension force results from the string pulling upon the bob of the pendulum. In our discussion, we will ignore the influence of air resistance - a third force that always opposes the motion of the bob as it swings to and fro. The air resistance force is relatively weak compared to the two dominant forces.
The gravity force is highly predictable; it is always in the same direction (down) and always of the same magnitude - mass*9.8 N/kg. The tension force is considerably less predictable. Both its direction and its magnitude change as the bob swings to and fro. The direction of the tension force is always towards the pivot point. So as the bob swings to the left of its equilibrium position, the tension force is at an angle - directed upwards and to the right. And as the bob swings to the right of its equilibrium position, the tension is directed upwards and to the left. The diagram below depicts the direction of these two forces at five different positions over the course of the pendulum's path.
that's what I know so far
Answer:
Explanation:
recall that power is energy carried out or work done per time
P=W/t
P=2*10^6*35
t=6*60=420S
W=Energy
E=2*10^6*35*360S
E=25200000000
Energy stored by water from rest is called potential energy. Since the water is falling from a height , we calculate potential energy as thus
E=M*g*h
Assume that the water intakes are effectively 175 m above the electric generators. How much water must pass through the generators to power 2 million 35-W Las Vegas light bulbs for 6.0 minutes?
M=mass of water
g=acceleration due to gravity 9.81m/s^2
h=height ,175m
25200000000=M*9.81*175
M=
M=1716.75kg
Answer:
Negative z-direction
Explanation:
First of all, we need to understand the direction of the magnetic force on the proton. This can be determined by using the right hand rule. So we have:
- index finger: direction of the proton, positive x-direction
- middle finger: direction of magnetic field, positive y-direction
- thumb: direction of the force, positive z-direction
In order to balance this magnetic force, the electric force must act in the opposite direction (negative z direction). Since for a proton (positive charge) the force and the electric field have same direction, it means that the electric field must also be in the negative z direction.
Well, basically because the observations can help you out during the experiment.
