Elastic potential = 1/2 x constant x square of compression lenght
So it's 360 N/m

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

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

Time period of the motion will remain the same while the amplitude of the motion will change

Explanation:

As we know that time period of oscillation of spring block system is given as

T= 2\pi\sqrt{\frac{M}{k}}

now we know that

M = mass of the object

k = spring constant

So here we know that the time period is independent of the gravity

while the maximum displacement of the spring from its mean position will depends on the gravity as

mg = kx

x = \frac{mg}{k}

so we can say that

Time period of the motion will remain the same while the amplitude of the motion will change

A system of two paint buckets connected by a lightweight rope is released from rest with the 12.0-kg bucket 2.00 m above the flo
NISA [10]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

    Mass of small bucket (m) = 4 kg

    Mass of big bucket (M) = 12 kg

    Initial velocity (v_{o}) = 0 m/s

    Final velocity (v_{f}) = ?

  Height H_{o} = h_{f} = 2 m

and,    H_{f} = h_{o} = 0 m

Now, according to the law of conservation of energy

         starting conditions = final conditions

  \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}_{o} + Mgh_{o} + \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}_{o} + mgh_{o} = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}_{f} + Mgh_{f} + \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}_{f} + mgh_{f}

     \frac{1}{2}(12)(0)^{2} + (12)(9.81)(2) + \frac{1}{2}(4)(0)^{2} + (4)(9.81)(0) = \frac{1}{2}(12)V^{2}_{f} + (12)(9.81)(0) + \frac{1}{2}(4)V^{2}_{f} + (4)(9.81)(2)

                 235.44 = 8V^{2}_{f} + 78.48

                V_{f} = 4.43 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that the speed with which this bucket strikes the floor is 4.43 m/s.

13. An aircraft heads North at 320 km/h rel:
AURORKA [14]

The velocity of the aircraft relative to the ground is 240 km/h North

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by using vector addition. In fact, the velocity of the aircraft relative to the ground is the (vector) sum between the velocity of the aircraft relative to the air and the velocity of the air relative to the ground.

Mathematically:

v' = v + v_a

where

v' is the velocity of the aircraft relative to the ground

v is the velocity of the aircraft relative to the air

v_a is the velocity of the air relative to the ground.

Taking north as positive direction, we have:

v = +320 km/h

v_a = -80 km/h (since the air is moving from North)

Therefore, we find

v'=+320 + (-80) = +240 km/h (north)

Two large non-conducting plates of surface area A = 0.25 m 2 carry equal but opposite charges What is the energy density of the
Stells [14]

Answer:

5.1*10^3 J/m^3

Explanation:

Using E = q/A*eo

And

q =75*10^-6 C

A = 0.25

eo = 8.85*10^-12

Energy density = 1/2*eo*(E^2) = 1/2*eo*(q/A*eo)^2 = [q^2] / [2*(A^2)*eo]

= [(75*10^-6)^2] / [2*(0.25)^2*8.85*10^-12]

= 5.1*10^3 J/m^3
