. A spring has a length of 0.200 m when a 0.300-kg mass hangs from it, and a length of 0.750 m when a 1.95-kg mass hangs from it

. (a) What is the force constant of the spring? (b) What is the unloaded length of the spring?

Answer:

29.4 N/m

0.1

Explanation:

a) From the restoring Force we know that :

F_r = —k*x

the gravitational force :

F_g=mg

Where:

F_r is the restoring force .

F_g is the gravitational force

g is the acceleration of gravity

k is the constant force

xi , x2 are the displacement made by the two masses.

Givens:

<em>m1 = 1.29 kg</em>

<em>m2 = 0.3 kg </em>

<em>x1 = -0.75 m </em>

<em>x2 = -0.2 m </em>

<em>g = 9.8 m/s^2 </em>

Plugging known information to get :

F_r =F_g

-k*x1 + k*x2=m1*g-m2*g

k=29.4 N/m

b) To get the unloaded length 1:

l=x1-(F_1/k)

Givens:

m1 = 1.95kg , x1 = —0.75m

Plugging known infromation to get :

l= x1 — (F_1/k)

= 0.1

Our two intrepid relacar drivers are named Pam and Ned. We use these names to make it easy to remember: measurements made by Pam

zhannawk [14.2K]

The velocity of Ned as measured by Pam is the interpretation of v.

Answer: Option D

<u>Explanation:</u>

According to question, we know that this is an issue depending on the logical and translation of the factors. From the measured information taken what is gathered by the two people is communicated and we have given as:

The Ned reference framework : (x, t)

The Pam reference framework : $\left(x^{\prime}, t^{\prime}\right)$

From the reference framework, we realize that ν is the speed of Pam (the other reference framework) as estimation by Ned.

At that point, $v^{\prime}$ is the speed of Ned (from the other arrangement of the reference) as estimation by Pam.

A fisherman is watching water waves ripple past his boat. How could he determine the wavelength of the water waves?

natta225 [31]

Wavelength can be calculated using the following formula: wavelength = wave velocity/frequency. Wavelength usually is expressed in units of meters.

Gretchen runs the first 4.0 km of a race at 5.0 m/s. Then a stiff wind comes up, so she runs the last 1.0 km at only 4.0 m/s.

KIM [24]

Answer:

The velocity is $v = 4.76 \ m/s$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The first distance is $d_1 = 4.0 \ km = 4000 \ m$

The first speed is $v_1 = 5.0 \ m/s$

The second distance is $d_2 = 1.0 \ km = 1000 \ m$

The second speed is $v_2 = 4.0 \ m/s$

Generally the time taken for first distance is

$t_1 = \frac{d_1 }{v_1 }$

$t_1 = \frac{4000}{5}$

$t_1 = 800 \ s$

The time taken for second distance is

$t_1 = \frac{d_2 }{v_2 }$

$t_1 = \frac{1000}{4}$

$t_1 = 250 \ s$

The total time is mathematically represented as

$t = t_1 + t_2$

=> $t = 800 + 250$

=> $t = 1050 \ s$

Generally the constant velocity that would let her finish at the same time is mathematically represented as

$v = \frac{d_1 + d_2}{t }$

=> $v = \frac{4000 + 1000}{1050 }$

=> $v = 4.76 \ m/s$

Two disks with the same rotational inertia i are spinning about the same frictionless shaft, with the same angular speed ω, but

valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

3. none of these

Explanation:

The rotational kinetic energy of an object is given by:

$K=\frac{1}{2}I \omega^2$

where

I is the moment of inertia

$\omega$ is the angular speed

In this problem, we have two objects rotating, so the total rotational kinetic energy will be the sum of the rotational energies of each object.

For disk 1:

$K_1 = \frac{1}{2}I (\omega)^2 = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2$

For disk 2:

$K_2 = \frac{1}{2}I(-\omega)^2 = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2$

so the total energy is

$K=K_1 + K_2 = \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 + \frac{1}{2}I\omega^2 = I\omega^2$

So, none of the options is correct.
