Answer:

<u>1.17 x 10¹¹ J</u>

Explanation:

250 MW = 250 x 10⁶ W

7.8 min = 468 s

P = W/t

W = Pt

   = 250 x 10⁶ x 468

   = 117000 x 10⁶

   = <u>1.17 x 10¹¹ J</u>

Answer:

d=\frac{2g(m1-m2)}{k}

Explanation:

For this we're going to use conservation of mechanical energy because there are nor dissipative forces as friction. So, the change on mechanical energy (E) should be zero, that means:

E_{i}=E_{f}

K_{i}+U_{i}=K_{f}+U_{f} (1)

With K_{i} the initial kinetic energy, U_{i} the initial potential energy, K_{f} the final kinetic energy and U_{f} the final potential energy. Note that initialy the masses are at rest so K_{i} = 0, when they are released the block 2 moves downward because m2>m1 and finally when the mass 2 reaches its maximum displacement the blocks will be instantly at rest so K_{f} =0. So, equation (1) becomes:

U_{i}=U_{f} (2)

At initial moment all the potential energy is gravitational because the spring is not stretched so U_{i}=U_{gi} and at final moment we have potential gravitational energy and potential elastic energy so U_{f}=U_{gf}+U_{ef}, using this on (2)

U_{gi}=U_{gf}+U_{ef} (3)

Additional if we define the cero of potential gravitational energy as sketched on the figure below (See image attached), U_{gi}=0 and we have by (3) :

0= U_{gf}+U_{ef} (4)

Now when the block 1 moves a distance d upward the block 2 moves downward a distance d too (to maintain a constant length of the rope) and the spring stretches a distance d, so (4) is:

0=-m1gd+m2gd+\frac{kd^{2}}{2}

dividing both sides by d

0=-m1g+m2g+\frac{kd}{2}

g(m1-m2)= \frac{kd}{2}

d=\frac{2g(m1-m2)}{k}, with k the constant of the spring and g the gravitational acceleration.
