Answer:

Explanation:

Your numbers seem wonky, so I'll just assume that the initial displacement is a distance A (Amplitude) from the equilibrium position. Spring constant = k

Initial potential energy is

PE = ½kA²

As potential energy and kinetic energy are constantly exchanging in SHM,

the position x where half of the original spring potential exists is found where

½kx² = ½(½kA²)

    x² = ½A²

    x = (√0.5)A

    x ≈ 0.707A

just plug in your actual starting position A

With A = 5.2 cm

x = 3.67695... 3.7 cm

The maximum speed with which you can throw a stone is about 20 m/s. Can you hit a window 45 m away horizontally and 10 m up from
Allushta [10]

Answer:

 y = 17 m

Explanation:

For this projectile launch exercise, let's write the equation of position

          x = v₀ₓ t

          y = v_{oy} t - ½ g t²

let's substitute

          45 = v₀ cos θ t

          10 = v₀ sin θ t - ½ 9.8 t²

the maximum height the ball can reach where the vertical velocity is zero

 

           v_{y} = v_{oy} - gt

           0 = v₀ sin θ - gt

           0 = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

Let's write our system of equations

         45 = v₀ cos θ  t

         10 = v₀ sin θ t - ½ 9.8 t²

         0 = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

We have a system of three equations with three unknowns for which it can be solved.

Let's use the last two

        v₀ sin θ = 9.8 t

we substitute

        10 = (9.8 t) t - ½ 9.8 t2

        10 = ½ 9.8 t2

        10 = 4.9 t2

        t = √ (10 / 4.9)

        t = 1,429 s

Now let's use the first equation and the last one

         45 = v₀ cos θ t

         0  = v₀ sin θ - 9.8 t

         9.8 t = v₀  sin θ

         45 / t = v₀ cos θ

we divide

         9.8t / (45 / t) = tan θ

          tan θ = 9.8 t² / 45

          θ = tan⁻¹ ( 9.8 t² / 45 )

          θ = tan⁻¹ (0.4447)

          θ = 24º

Now we can calculate the maximum height

         v_y² = v_{oy}^2 - 2 g y

         vy = 0

          y = v_{oy}^2 / 2g

          y = (20 sin 24)²/2 9.8

          y = 3,376 m

the other angle that gives the same result is

       θ‘= 90 - θ

       θ' = 90 -24

       θ'= 66'

for this angle the maximum height is

 

          y = v_{oy}^2 / 2g

          y = (20 sin 66)²/2 9.8

           y = 17 m

thisis the correct

How do determine which is Y2, Y1, X2, and X1 on a graph. <br><br> And how do find rise over run.
fredd [130]
One point will be X1,Y1 and the other will be X2,Y2. It does not matter which is which except that X1 and Y1 have to be the same point and X2 and Y2 have to be the same point. For example, let's say you were given (2,3) and (6,8). No matter which point is X1,Y1 and the other is X2,Y2, the slope will still be 5/4. 

The rise is the change in y from one point to the other. The run would be the change in x from one point to the other.

Kepler-62e is an exoplanet that orbits within the habitable zone around its parent star. The planet has a mass that is 3.57 time
skad [1K]

Answer:

g' = 13.5 m/s²

Explanation:

The acceleration due to gravity on surface of earth is given by the formula:

g = GMe/Re²   --------------- euation 1

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity on surface of earth

G = Universal Gravitational Constant

Me = Mass of Earth

Re = Radius of Earth

Now, the the acceleration due to gravity on the surface of Kepler-62e is:

g' = GM'/R'²   --------------- euation 1

where,

g' = acceleration due to gravity on surface of Kepler-62e

G = Universal Gravitational Constant

M' = Mass of Kepler-62e = 3.57 Me

R' = Radius of Kepler-62e = 1.61 Re

Therefore,

g' = G(3.57 Me)/(1.61 Re)²

g' = 1.38 GMe/Re²

using equation 1:

g' = 1.38 g

where,

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

g' = 1.38(9.8 m/s²)

<u>g' = 13.5 m/s²</u>

Please help me I really need it
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

A 1.5 metres per second squared B 0 C 6 0.5

b) 9m

Explanation:

a= v-a/t

a= acceleration measured in metres per second squared

v= final speed measured in metres per second

u= initial speed measured in metres per second

t= time measured in second

A

a=v-a/t

a= 3-0/2

a= 1.5 metres per second squared

Distance in a velocity time graph = area under

To calculate the distance in the first 4 seconds

You divide the graph into triangles and rectangles

Area A (triangle )= 1/2 × base × height

=1÷2 ×2×3

= 3m

Area B (rectangle)= L×B

=2×3

=6m

Area A + Area B= 3+6

= 9m
