Answer:

the speed of the object has become constant.

Explanation:

At terminal velocity, air resistance equals in magnitude the weight of the falling object. Because the two are oppositely directed forces, the total force on the object is zero, and the speed of the object has become constant.

An 888.0 kg elevator is moving downward with a velocity of 0.800 m/s. It decelerates uniformly and comes to a stop in a distance

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The value of tension on the cable T = 1065.6 N

Explanation:

Mass = 888 kg

Initial velocity ( u )= 0.8 $\frac{m}{sec}$

Final velocity ( V ) = 0

Distance traveled before come to rest = 0.2667 m

Now use third law of motion $V^{2}$ = $u^{2}$ - 2 a s

Put all the values in above formula we get,

⇒ 0 = $0.8^{2}$ - 2 × a ×0.2667

⇒ a = 1.2 $\frac{m}{sec^{2} }$

This is the deceleration of the box.

Tension in the cable is given by T = F = m × a

Put all the values in above formula we get,

T = 888 × 1.2

T = 1065.6 N

This is the value of tension on the cable.

A 0.405 kg mass is attached to a spring with a force constant of 26.3 N/m and released from rest a distance of 3.31 cm from the

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

0.231 m/s

Explanation:

m = mass attached to the spring = 0.405 kg

k = spring constant of spring = 26.3 N/m

x₀ = initial position = 3.31 cm = 0.0331 m

x = final position = (0.5) x₀ = (0.5) (0.0331) = 0.01655 m

v₀ = initial speed = 0 m/s

v = final speed = ?

Using conservation of energy

Initial kinetic energy + initial spring energy = Final kinetic energy + final spring energy

(0.5) m v₀² + (0.5) k x₀² = (0.5) m v² + (0.5) k x²

m v₀² + k x₀² = m v² + k x²

(0.405) (0)² + (26.3) (0.0331)² = (0.405) v² + (26.3) (0.01655)²

v = 0.231 m/s
