A 2kg 2 kg object is moving in along the x x -axis under a single conservative force. When the object is at position x=0 x = 0 ,

its speed is 3ms 3 m s . The potential energy U U associated with the conservative force is given as a function of x x by the equation U=αx2 U = α x 2 , where α=4Nm α = 4 N m . Which of the following is correct about the motion of the object?

Answer:

The particle comes to rest before reaching the position x=4m.

Explanation:

When the object is at x=0m, all of its energy is kinetic energy. Using the equation for kinetic energy yields KE=1/2mv^2=(12)(2)(3)^2=9J. Using the given equation for potential energy when the object is at x=4m yields U=4x^2=4(4)^2=64J. Since the system only has 9J of energy, the object comes to rest before reaching x=4m.

Which number is 0.0069 expressed in scientific notation? 6.9 × 10 4 6.9 × 10 –6 6.9 × 10 –4 6.9 × 10 –3
Komok [63]

Given: The number = 0.0069 that has to be expressed in scientific notation

Concept: When we express any number in scientific notation then we shall consider two points.

(i) If we shift the decimal point from left to right after first (non-zero) digit then we count the number of shifted place of decimal and write them in terms of the negative power of 10. For example,  0.004789 = 4.789 ×10⁻³

(ii) If we shift the decimal point from right to left after first (non-zero) digit from the left end then we count the number of shifted place and write then in terms of the positive power of 10. For example,  4789.24 = 4.78924 ×10⁺³ = 4.78924 ×10³ Now, we shall convert the given number 0.0069 in scientific notation

0.0069  = 6.9 ×10⁻³ because we have shifted the decimal from left to right for three places that is after digit 6.

Hence, the last option 6.9 ×10⁻³ will be the correct option.
