Answer: 360 N/m

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy of a spring is given by

E=\frac{1}{2}kx^2

where

k is the spring constant

x is the compression/stretching of the spring

In this problem, we know the elastic potential energy, E=16.2 J, and the compression, x=0.30 m. Therefore, we can re-arrange the formula to calculate the spring constant k:

k=\frac{2E}{x^2}=\frac{2\cdot 16.2 J}{(0.30 m)^2}=360 N/m

An automobile accelerates from zero to 30 m/s in 6.0 s. The wheels have a diameter of 0.40 m. What is the average angular accele
leva [86]

To solve this problem we will use the concepts related to angular motion equations. Therefore we will have that the angular acceleration will be equivalent to the change in the angular velocity per unit of time.

Later we will use the relationship between linear velocity, radius and angular velocity to find said angular velocity and use it in the mathematical expression of angular acceleration.

The average angular acceleration

\alpha = \frac{\omega_f - \omega_0}{t}

Here

\alpha = Angular acceleration

\omega_{f,i} = Initial and final angular velocity

There is not initial angular velocity,then

\alpha = \frac{\omega_f}{t}

We know that the relation between the tangential velocity with the angular velocity is given by,

v = r\omega

Here,

r = Radius

\omega = Angular velocity,

Rearranging to find the angular velocity

\omega = \frac{v}{r}}

\omega = \frac{30}{0.20} \rightarrow Remember that the radius is half te diameter.

Now replacing this expression at the first equation we have,

\alpha = \frac{30}{0.20*6}

\alpha = 25 rad /s^2

Therefore teh average angular acceleration of each wheel is 25rad/s^2

Answer:

 T₂ =602  °C

Explanation:

Given that

T₁ = 227°C =227+273 K

T₁ =500 k

Gauge pressure at condition 1 given = 100 KPa

The absolute pressure at condition 1 will be

P₁ = 100 + 100 KPa

P₁ =200 KPa

Gauge pressure at condition 2 given = 250 KPa

The absolute pressure at condition 2 will be

P₂ = 250 + 100 KPa

P₂ =350 KPa

The temperature at condition 2 = T₂

We know that

\dfrac{T_2}{T_1}=\dfrac{P_2}{P_1}\\T_2=T_1\times \dfrac{P_2}{P_1}\\T_2=500\times \dfrac{350}{200}\ K\\

T₂ = 875 K

T₂ =875- 273 °C

T₂ =602  °C

Answer:

Explanation:

3. Newton’s third law explains how every action has an equal but opposite reaction, meaning that forces comes in pairs. While the locomotive’s wheels are pushing back against the ground as the action force, the ground is producing a reaction force towards the locomotive, propelling it forward. Another pair of forces that act on the locomotive is gravity and normal force. While gravity is pulling the locomotive towards the ground, the normal force the ground exerts on the locomotive is why the locomotive doesn’t fall through the ground.

4. The force of Earth’s gravity on the Sun is weaker than the force of the Sun’s gravity on Earth. The Sun’s attraction  affects the motion of Earth more than the Earth’s attraction affects the Sun’s motion because according to  Newton’s second law, force has mass as one of its factors. The Sun has a significantly higher mass than Earth,  meaning that its force of gravity would also be significantly higher. Newton’s third law is why the Earth doesn’t get  marginally closer to the Sun, stating that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. As the Sun is pulling  Earth towards itself, Earth is pulling away from the Sun.
