LenKa [72]

Answer:

a) W = - 318.26 J, b)  W = 0 , c) W = 318.275 J , d) W = 318.275 J , e) W = 0

Explanation:

The work is defined by

           W = F .ds = F ds cos θ

Bold indicate vectors

We create a reference system where the x-axis is parallel to the ramp and the axis and perpendicular, in the attached we see a scheme of the forces

Let's use trigonometry to break down weight

     sin θ = Wₓ / W

     Wₓ = W sin 60

     cos θ = Wy / W

      Wy = W cos 60

X axis

How the body is going at constant speed

    fr - Wₓ = 0

    fr = mg sin 60

    fr = 15 9.8 sin 60

    fr = 127.31 N

Y Axis  

    N - Wy = 0

    N = mg cos 60

    N = 15 9.8 cos 60

    N = 73.5 N

Let's calculate the different jobs

a) The work of the force of gravity is

     W = mg L cos θ

Where the angles are between the weight and the displacement is

      θ = 60 + 90 = 150

     W = 15 9.8 2.50 cos 150

     W = - 318.26 J

b) The work of the normal force

     From Newton's equations

          N = Wy = W cos 60

          N = mg cos 60

         W = N L cos 90

        W = 0

c) The work of the friction force

      W = fr L cos 0

      W = 127.31 2.50

      W = 318.275 J

d) as the body is going at constant speed the force of the tape is equal to the force of friction

      W = F L cos 0

      W = 127.31 2.50

       W = 318.275 J

e) the net force

    F ’= fr - Wx = 0

    W = F ’L cos 0

    W = 0

A rocket exhausts fuel with a velocity of 1500m/s, relative to the rocket. It starts from rest in outer space with fuel comprisi
babunello [35]

Answer:

v= 2413.5 m/s

Explanation:

maximum change of speed of rocket

=(initial exhaust velocity)×ln [(initialmass/finalmass)]

let initial mass= m

final mass = m-m(4/5) = m/5

[since the 80% of mass which is fuel is exhausted]

V-0 = 1500 ln (1/0.2)

V= 1500×1.609 = 2413.5 m/s

therefore, its exhaust speed v= 2413.5 m/s

A stretched spring has 5184 J of elastic potential energy and a spring constant of 16,200 N/m. What is the displacement of the s
Bezzdna [24]

Hello!

A stretched spring has 5184 J of elastic potential energy and a spring constant of 16,200 N/m. What is the displacement of the spring?

0.57 m

0.64 m  

0.80 m  

1.25 m

Data:

E_{pe}\:(elastic\:potential\:energy) = 5184\:J

K\:(constant) = 16200\:N/m

x\:(displacement) =\:?

For a spring (or an elastic), the elastic potential energy is calculated by the following expression:

E_{pe} = \dfrac{k*x^2}{2}

Where k represents the elastic constant of the spring (or elastic) and x the deformation or displacement suffered by the spring.

Solving:  

E_{pe} = \dfrac{k*x^2}{2}

5184 = \dfrac{16200*x^2}{2}

5184*2 = 16200*x^2

10368 = 16200\:x^2

16200\:x^2 = 10368

x^{2} = \dfrac{10368}{16200}

x^{2} = 0.64

x = \sqrt{0.64}

\boxed{\boxed{x = 0.8\:m}}\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

Answer:  

The displacement of the spring = 0.8 m (or 0.80 m)
