A 210 g block is dropped onto a relaxed vertical spring that has a spring constant of k = 2.0 N/cm. The block becomes attached t

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

a) $W_{g}=mdx = 0.21 kg *9.8\frac{m}{s^2} 0.10m=0.2058 J$

b) $W_{spring}= -\frac{1}{2} Kx^2 =-\frac{1}{2} 200 N/m (0.1m)^2=-1 J$

c) $V_i =\sqrt{2 \frac{W_g + W_{spring}}{0.21 kg}}}=\sqrt{2 \frac{(1-0.2058)}{0.21 kg}}}=2.75m/s$

d) $d_1 =0.183m$ or 18.3 cm

Explanation:

For this case we have the following system with the forces on the figure attached.

We know that the spring compresses a total distance of x=0.10 m

Part a

The gravitational force is defined as mg so on this case the work donde by the gravity is:

$W_{g}=mdx = 0.21 kg *9.8\frac{m}{s^2} 0.10m=0.2058 J$

Part b

For this case first we can convert the spring constant to N/m like this:

$2 \frac{N}{cm} \frac{100cm}{1m}=200 \frac{N}{m}$

And the work donde by the spring on this case is given by:

$W_{spring}= -\frac{1}{2} Kx^2 =-\frac{1}{2} 200 N/m (0.1m)^2=-1 J$

Part c

We can assume that the initial velocity for the block is Vi and is at rest from the end of the movement. If we use balance of energy we got:

$W_{g} +W_{spring} = K_{f} -K_{i}=0- \frac{1}{2} m v^2_i$

And if we solve for the initial velocity we got:

$V_i =\sqrt{2 \frac{W_g + W_{spring}}{0.21 kg}}}=\sqrt{2 \frac{(1-0.2058)}{0.21 kg}}}=2.75m/s$

Part d

Let d1 represent the new maximum distance, in order to find it we know that :

$-1/2mV^2_i = W_g + W_{spring}$

And replacing we got:

$-1/2mV^2_i =mg d_1 -1/2 k d^2_1$

And we can put the terms like this:

$\frac{1}{2} k d^2_1 -mg d_1 -1/2 m V^2_i =0$

If we multiply all the equation by 2 we got:

$k d^2_1 -2 mg d_1 -m V^2_i =0$

Now we can replace the values and we got:

$200N/m d^2_1 -0.21kg(9.8m/s^2)d_1 -0.21 kg(5.50 m/s)^2) =0$

$200 d^2_1 -2.058 d_1 -6.3525=0$

And solving the quadratic equation we got that the solution for $d_1 =0.183m$ or 18.3 cm because the negative solution not make sense.

A hiker determines the length of a lake by listening for the echo of her shout reflected by a cliff at the far end of the lake.

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

L = 499 m

Explanation:

If we assume that the speed of sound is constant, that travels along a straight line, and that the echo is instantaneous, we can find the total distance travelled by the sound, as follows, just applying the definition of average velocity:

$\Delta x = v_{s} * t = 343 m/s* 2.91 s = 998 m$

If we assume that the time needed to reach to the cliff, is the same used for the return travel, the length of the lake will be exactly half of the total distance calculated:

$l_{lake} = \frac{\Delta x}{2} = \frac{998m}{2} = 499 m$

The length of the lake is 499 m.

Cuando una persona sube y baja una escalera, Cuanto vale su desplazamiento y cual es la medida de su trayectoria.

adoni [48]

Answer:

Primero, definimos el desplazamiento como la distancia entre la posición final y la posición inicial.

Así, si comenzamos abajo, luego subimos la escalera, y luego bajamos, la posición final y la posición inicial serán la misma

por lo que el desplazamiento es igual a cero.

La medida recorrida es el espacio total recorrido.

Es decir, si entre el principio y el final de la escalera hay una distancia D.

La persona que sube y baja, recorre esta distancia dos veces.

Entonces cuando una persona sube y baja la escalera, la medida de su trayectoria será 2*D.

What is the acceleration of the the object during the first 4 seconds?

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

Velocity (m/s) over time (s) graph

We could write out our average acceleration as:

a = Δv/ Δta=Δv/Δta, equals, Δ, v, slash, Δ, t

a = (15 m/s - 0 m/s) / 0.2 seconds

a = 15 m/s / 0.2 seconds

a = 75 m/s / second

Explanation:

What this formula is telling us is that if we know the acceleration of an object, and the ... we can plug in our acceleration of 12.5 m/s2 for a, and 4 seconds for t.

Velocity (m/s) over time (s) graph

We could write out our average acceleration as:

a = Δv/ Δta=Δv/Δta, equals, Δ, v, slash, Δ, t

a = (15 m/s - 0 m/s) / 0.2 seconds

a = 15 m/s / 0.2 seconds

a = 75 m/s / second
