Three identical 6.67-kg masses hang at rest from three identical springs, numbered as in the figure. Each spring has an unstretc

hed length of 0.23 m and a spring constant of 8.13 kN/m. How long, L , is spring 2?
[Hint: Draw some FBDs and apply Newton's second law. Remember to account for both the spring's stretch and its unstretched length.]

The length of the spring 2 due to arrangement of the equal masses is determined as 0.238 m.

<h3>Extension of the spring 2</h3>

The extension of the spring 2 is determined from the net force acting on spring 2.

F(net) = Kx

<em>Net force on spring 2 = sum of forces acting downwards - sum of forces acting upwards.</em>

Net force on spring 2 = (force on 2 + force on 3) - (force on 1)

F(net) = (m₂ + m₃)g - (m₁)g

F(net) = (6.67 + 6.67)9.8  -  (6.67)9.8

F(net) = 130.732 - 65.366

F(net) = 65.366 N

x = F/k

x = (65.366)/(8130)

x = 0.00804 m

The length of spring 2 = x + 0.23 m

                                     = 0.00804 m + 0.23 m = 0.238 m

Thus, the length of the spring 2 due to arrangement of the equal masses is determined as 0.238 m.

What are the advantages and Disadvantages of using Circuit Breakers Instead of Fuses
lesya [120]

Answer:

Explanation:

Circuit breaker is an automatic electrical  switch which cuts the power when there is surge in current.

Advantages of Circuit breaker

  • They are more reliable i.e. they are not replaced frequently
  • Efficient and easy to safeguard electrical appliance

Disadvantage of Circuit breaker

  • They are less sensitive than fuses i.e. fuses are much faster than circuit breaker.

What’s better csp or pv ?
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

CSP

Explanation:

CSP systems store energy through Thermal Energy Storage technologies (TES), so power can be used when there isn't enough sunlight. PV systems, however, can't store thermal energy because they use direct sunlight, rather than heat. For this reason, CSP systems are better for energy storage and efficiency.

A projectile is launched from ground level at angle u and speed v0 into a headwind that causes a constant horizontal acceleratio
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Launch angle =u

Initial Speed is v_0

Horizontal acceleration is a_x=a

At maximum height velocity is zero therefore

v_f=v_i-gt

0=v_0\sin u-gt

t=\frac{v_0\sin u}{g}

Total time of flight T=2t=\frac{2v_0\sin u}{g}

During this time horizontal range is

R=v_o\cos u\cdot 2t-\frac{a(2t)^2}{2}

R=\frac{2v_0^2\sin u\cos u}{g}-\frac{2av_0^2\sin ^u}{g^2}

For maximum range \frac{\mathrm{d} R}{\mathrm{d} u}=0

\frac{\mathrm{d} R}{\mathrm{d} u}=\frac{2v_0^2\cos 2u}{g}-\frac{4av_0^2\sin u\cos u}{g^2}

\frac{\mathrm{d} R}{\mathrm{d} u}=\frac{2v_0^2}{g}\left [ \cos 2u-\frac{a}{g}\sin 2u\right ]=0

\tan 2u=\frac{g}{a}

u=\frac{1}{2}tan ^{-1}\frac{g}{a}

(b)If a =10% g

a=0.1g

thus u=\frac{1}{2}tan^{-1}\frac{g}{0.1g}

u=42.14^{\circ}
