Answer:

2.04m

Explanation:

PE=mgh

h= PE/mg

h= 40/2(9.82)

h=40/19.64

h=2.04

Answer:

20m

Explanation:

Formula to find the potential energy is,

Potential Energy = mgh

Here,

m = mass

g = gravitational field

h = height

According to the question, we have to find the height.

Usually, we get g is 10ms^{-2}

Let us solve for the answer now.

P.E. =mgh\\40J =2kg*10ms^{-2} *h\\40 = 20h\\\frac{40}{20}= \frac{20h}{20} \\20m=h

Hope this helps you.

Let me know if you have any other questions :-)

A spring stretches 0.150 m when a 0.30 kg mass is hung from it. The spring is then stretched an additional 0.100 m from this equ
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

a)  k=19.6N/m

b)  V_m=0.81m/s

c)  a_m=6.561m/s^2

d)  K.E=0.096J

e)  T=0.78sec &F=1.29sec

f)   mx'' + kx' =0

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Stretch Length L=0.150m

Mass m=0.30kg

Total stretch lengthL_t=0.150+0.100=>0.25

a)

Generally the equation for Force F on the spring is mathematically given by

F=-km\\\\k=F/m\\\\k=\frac{m*g}{x}\\\\k=\frac{0.30*9.8}{0.15}

k=19.6N/m

b)Generally the equation for Max Velocity of Mass on the spring is mathematically given by

V_m=A\omega

Where

A=Amplitude

A=0.100m

And

\omega=angulat Velocity\\\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}\\\\\omega=\sqrt{\frac{19.6}{0.3}}\\\\\omega=8.1rad/s

Therefore

V_m=A\omega\\\\V_m=8.1*0.1

V_m=0.81m/s

c)

Generally the equation for Max Acceleration of Mass on the spring is mathematically given by

a_m=\omega^2A

a_m=8.1^2*0.1

a_m=6.561m/s^2

d)

Generally the equation for Total mechanical energy of Mass on the spring is mathematically given by

K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

K.E=\frac{1}{2}*0.3*0.8^2

K.E=0.096J

e)

Generally the equation for  the period T is mathematically given by

\omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}

T=\frac{2*3.142}{8.1}

T=0.78sec

Generally the equation for  the Frequency is mathematically given by

F=\frac{1}{T}

F=1.29sec

f)

Generally the Equation of time-dependent vertical position of the mass is mathematically given by

mx'' + kx' =0

Where

'= signify order of differentiation

A box is at rest on a table. What can you say about the forces acting on the box?
Nikitich [7]
You can tell a lot about an object that's not moving,
and also a lot about the forces acting on it:

==> If the box is at rest on the table, then it is not accelerating.

==> Since it is not accelerating, I can say that the forces on it are balanced.

==> That means that the sum of all forces acting on the box is zero,
and the effect of all the forces acting on it is the same as if there were
no forces acting on it at all.

==> This in turn means that all of the horizontal forces are balanced,
AND all of the vertical forces are balanced.

Horizontal forces:
sliding friction, somebody pushing the box

All of the forces on this list must add up to zero. So ...

(sliding friction force) = (pushing force), in the opposite direction.

If nobody pushing the box, then sliding friction force = zero.

Vertical forces:
gravitational force (weight of the box, pulling it down)
normal force (table pushing the box up)

All of the forces on this list must add up to zero, so ...

(Gravitational force down) + (normal force up) = zero

(Gravitational force down) = -(normal force up) .
