In one experiment, the students allow the block to oscillate after stretching the spring a distance A. If the potential energy s

tored in the spring is U0, then what is the change in kinetic energy of the block after it is released from rest and has traveled a distance of A2?

Answer:

    K = m g (A - A2)

Explanation:

In a block spring system the total energy is the sum of the potential energy plus the kinetic energy, for maximum elongation all the energy is potential

         Em = U₀ = m g A

For when the system is at an ele

Elongation A2 less than A, energy has two parts

        Em = K + U₂

       K = Em –U₂

We substitute

     K = m g A - m gA2

    K = m g (A - A2)

Answer:

ΔK.E = U0

Explanation:

Solution:-

- The spring constant = k

- The amount of distance displaced initially xo = A

- The potential energy stored at point xo = U0

- Considering the mass-spring system in isolation there are no external forces like viscous drag or friction acting, then we can safely apply the principle of conservation of energy.

- Which states:

                                       ΔK.E = ΔP.E

Where,  ΔK.E: The change in kinetic energy

             ΔP.E: The change in potential energy

                                      ΔK.E = U0 - Uf

Where,  Uf : Final potential energy.

- The potential energy stored in the spring is given by:

                                     U = 1/2*k*x^2

Where,    x: The displacement of spring from mean position.

- Once the block has been released from displacement x = A/2 about mean position the block travels back to its mean position with displacement x = 0. So the final potential energy when the block has travelled a distance of A/2 is:

                                    Uf = 1/2*k*0^2 = 0

So,

                                   ΔK.E = U0 - Uf

                                   ΔK.E = U0

Answer:

1)

v_{oy}=11.29\ m/s

2)

y=7.39\ m

Explanation:

<u>Projectile Motion</u>

When an object is launched near the Earth's surface forming an angle \theta with the horizontal plane, it describes a well-known path called a parabola. The only force acting (neglecting the effects of the wind) is the gravity, which acts on the vertical axis.

The heigh of an object can be computed as

\displaystyle y=y_o+V_{oy}t-\frac{gt^2}{2}

Where y_o is the initial height above the ground level, v_{oy} is the vertical component of the initial velocity and t is the time

The y-component of the speed is

v_y=v_{oy}-gt

1) We'll find the vertical component of the initial speed since we have not enough data to compute the magnitude of v_o

The object will reach the maximum height when v_y=0. It allows us to compute the time to reach that point

v_{oy}-gt_m=0

Solving for t_m

\displaystyle t_m=\frac{v_{oy}}{g}

Thus, the maximum heigh is

\displaystyle y_m=y_o+\frac{v_{oy}^2}{2g}

We know this value is 8 meters

\displaystyle y_o+\frac{v_{oy}^2}{2g}=8

Solving for v_{oy}

\displaystyle v_{oy}=\sqrt{2g(8-y_o)}

Replacing the known values

\displaystyle v_{oy}=\sqrt{2(9.8)(8-1.5)}

\displaystyle v_{oy}=11.29\ m/s

2) We know at t=1.505 sec the ball is above Julie's head, we can compute

\displaystyle y=y_o+V_{oy}t-\frac{gt^2}{2}

\displaystyle y=1.5+(11.29)(1.505)-\frac{9.8(1.505)^2}{2}

\displaystyle y=1.5\ m+16,991\ m-11.098\ m

y=7.39\ m

The eyes of many older people have lost the ability to accommodate, and so an older person’s near point may be more than 25 cm f
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

Smaller refractive power

Explanation:

The refractive power of an eye is the extent to which it can converge or diverge the light rays.

Near point is the the closest point for an eye such that when an object is placed at that point the image it forms is sharp and clearly visible to the eye.

A the person ages, the ciliary muscles of the eyes weakens and as a result the lens contracts and the formation of the image takes place behind the retina instead of forming at the retina.

Thus the near point also increases and the refractive power becomes smaller.

otez555 [7]

Answer:

0.647 nC

Explanation:

The force experienced by a charge due to the presence of an electric field is given by

F=qE

where

q is the charge

E is the magnitude of the electric field

In this problem, each antenna is modelled as it was a single point charge, experiencing a force of

F=5.50\mu N = 5.50\cdot 10^{-6} N

Therefore, if the electric field magnitude is

E=8.50 kN/C = 8500 N/C

Then the charge on each antenna would be

q=\frac{F}{E}=\frac{5.50\cdot 10^{-6} N}{8500 N/C}=6.47\cdot 10^{-10} C = 0.647 nC

A transition metal complex in solution has an absorption peak at 450 nm, in the blue region of the visible spectrum. What color
Ivan

Answer:

In the case of a solution transition metal complex that has an absorption peak at 450 nm in the blue region of the visible spectrum, the (complementary) color of this solution is orange (option B).

Explanation:

The portion of UV-visible radiation that is absorbed implies that a portion of electromagnetic radiation is not absorbed by the sample and is therefore transmitted through it and can be captured by the human eye. That is, in the visible region of a complex, the visible color of a solution can be seen and that  corresponds to the wavelengths of light it transmits, not absorbs. The  absorbing color is complementary to the color it transmits.

So, in the attached image you can see the approximate wavelengths with the colors, where they locate the wavelength with the absorbed color, you will be able to observe the complementary color that is seen or reflected.
