The coefficient of friction between the 2-lb block and the surface is μ=0.2. The block has an initial speed of Vβ =6 ft/s and is

acted upon by a horizontal force of P=15 lb. Determine the maximum deformation of the outer spring B at the instant the block comes to rest. Spring B has a stiffness of KB=20 lb/ft and the "nested" spring C has a stiffness of kc=40 lb/ft.

Answer:

x = 0.0685 m

Explanation:

In this exercise we can use the relationship between work and energy conservation

W = ΔEm

Where the work is

W = F x

The energy can be found in two points

Initial. Just when the block with its spring spring touches the other spring

Em₀ = K = ½ m v²

Final. When the system is at rest

$Em_{f}$ = $K_{e1}b +K_{e2}$ = ½ k₁ x² + ½ k₂ x²

We can find strength with Newton's second law

∑ F = F - fr

Axis y

N- W = 0

N = W

The friction force has the equation

fr = μ N

fr = μ W

The job

W = (F – μ W) x

We substitute in the equation

(F - μ W) x = ½ m v² - (½ k₁ x² + ½ k₂ x²)

½ x² (k₁ + k₂) + (F - μ W) x - ½ m v² = 0

We substitute values and solve

½ x² (20 + 40) + (15 -0.2 2) x - ½ (2/32) 6² = 0

x² 30 + 14.4 x - 1,125 = 0

x² + 0.48 x - 0.0375 = 0

We solve the second degree equation

x = [-0.48 ±√(0.48 2 + 4 0.0375)] / 2

x = [-0.48 ± 0.617] / 2

x₁ = 0.0685 m

x₂ = -0.549 m

The first result results from compression of the spring and the second torque elongation.

The result of the problem is x = 0.0685 m

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

(a) Rm = 268.4 m

(b) f = 6

Explanation:

The horizontal range of a projectile is given by the following formula:

R = V₀² Sin 2θ/g

(a)

For moon:

R = Range on moon = Rm

V₀ = Launch Speed = 28 m/s

θ = Launch Angle = 17°

g = acceleration due to gravity on moon = (9.8 m/s²)/6 = 1.63 m/s²

Therefore,

Rm = (28 m/s)²Sin (2*17°)/(1.63 m/s²)

<u>Rm = 268.4 m</u>

(b)

For Earth:

R = Range on Earth = Re

V₀ = Launch Speed = 28 m/s

θ = Launch Angle = 17°

g = acceleration due to gravity on Earth = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

Re = (28 m/s)²Sin (2*17°)/(9.8 m/s²)

Re = 44.7 m

Therefore.

f = Rm/Re = 268.4 m/44.7 m

<u>f = 6</u>

The velocity of a an object in linear motion changes from +25 meters per second to +15 meters per second in 2.0 seconds.

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

$-5.0 m/s^2$

Explanation:

Missing question:

What is the object's acceleration?

Solution:

The acceleration of an object is given by

$a=\frac{v-u}{t}$

where

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

t is the time taken for the change in velocity

For the object in this problem,

u = +25 m/s

v = +15 m/s

t = 2.0 s

Substituting,

$a=\frac{15-25}{2}=-5.0 m/s^2$

And the acceleration is negative because its direction is opposite to that of the velocity.

A 2.70 kg cat is sitting on a windowsill. The cat is sleeping peacefully until a dog barks at him. Startled, the cat falls from

Alchen [17]

Answer:

The speed of the cat when it hits the ground is approximately 7.586 meters per second.

Explanation:

By Principle of Energy Conservation and Work-Energy Theorem, we have that initial potential gravitational energy of the cat ( $U_{g}$ ), in joules, is equal to the sum of the final translational kinetic energy ( $K$ ), in joules, and work losses due to air resistance ( $W_{l}$ ), in joules:

$U_{g} = K +W_{l}$ (1)

By definition of potential gravitational energy, translational kinetic energy and work, we expand the equation presented above:

$m \cdot g\cdot h = \frac{1}{2}\cdot m \cdot v^{2}+W_{l}$ (2)

Where:

$m$ - Mass of the cat, in kilograms.

$g$ - Gravitational acceleration, in meters per square second.

$h$ - Initial height of the cat, in meters.

$v$ - Final speed of the cat, in meters per second.

If we know that $m = 2.70\,kg$ , $g = 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}$ , $h = 5.20\,m$ and $W_{l} = 120\,J$ , then the final speed of the cat is:

$v = \sqrt{\frac{2\cdot (m\cdot g\cdot h-W_{l})}{m} }$

$v = \sqrt{2\cdot g\cdot h-\frac{W_{l}}{m} }$

$v \approx 7.586\,\frac{m}{s}$

The speed of the cat when it hits the ground is approximately 7.586 meters per second.

Several charges in the neighborhood of point P produce an electric potential of 6.0 kV (relative to zero at infinity) and an ele

Julli [10]

Answer:

0.018 J

Explanation:

The work done to bring the charge from infinity to point P is equal to the change in electric potential energy of the charge - so it is given by

$W = q \Delta V$

where

$q=3.0 \mu C = 3.0 \cdot 10^{-6} C$ is the magnitude of the charge

$\Delta V = 6.0 kV = 6000 V$ is the potential difference between point P and infinity

Substituting into the equation, we find

$W=(3.0\cdot 10^{-6}C)(6000 V)=0.018 J$
