A block of mass 3. 0 kg is hung from a spring, causing it to stretch 12 cm at equilibrium, as shown above. The 3. 0 kg block is then replaced by a 4. 0 kg block, and the new block is released from the position shown above, at which the spring is unstretched. How far will the 4. 0 kg block fall before its direction is reversed?.

Answers

Answer 1

Based on the length of the spring and the mass of the block, the distance the 4.0 kg block can fall before a reversal in direction is 32 cm.

How do we arrive at 32cm?

Because energy is conserved, the distance the block can drop can be found as:

Mass x gravity x distance = (1 / 2) x spring constant x distance ²

Spring constant:

= (Mass x gravity)  / distance

= (3 x 9.8) / 12

= 2.45 cm

Distance is:

Mass x gravity x distance = (1 / 2) x spring constant x distance ²

distance = (2 x Mass x gravity) / spring constant

= (2 x 4 x 9.8) / 2.45

= 32 cm

initial velocity 0 km/hr, final velocity 24km/hr, time 3s, what is acceleration

Answers

Answer:

8 km/hr

Explanation:

Acceleration

=Change in Velocity/ Time

=(24-0)/3

=8

The acceleration of the body is {a} = 8 km/hr².

What is acceleration?

Acceleration is defined as the rate of change of velocity per unit time.

Given is -

Initial velocity : 0 km/hr

Final velocity : 24km/hr

Time : 3s

We can write the acceleration as -

a = Δv/Δt

a = (24 - 0)/(3 - 0)

a = 24/3

a = 8 km/hr²

Therefore, the acceleration of the body is {a} = 8 km/hr².

Answers

1) when we light a matchstick,the energy which got consumed in while rubbing the matchstick against the surface,turns into heat and hence ,it lights , therefore,the energy gets transferred from one type to another which proves the law of conservation of energy.

2) The coal gets burn and generate into electricity which further used by us for various purposes like lighting lamp and since the energy gets transferred from one source to another instead of ceasing, it proves the statement of conservation of energy.

3) As the pendulum swings in air , it continues to move from one point to another, changing potential energy to kinetic energy due to the motion that's taking place and unless an external force interferes, it's speed won't increase as at some point due to the friction by air will resist the movement resulting in decresement of kinetic energy and increased potential energy, thus ,at some point it will come to rest .

4) No ,it doesn't , because due to the force of friction,the disturbance in the movement of it ,takes place, making it stop at a specific point after some time.

5) As the pendulum swings in air , it continues to move from one point to another, changing potential energy to kinetic energy due to the motion that's taking place and unless an external force interferes, it's speed won't increase as at some point due to the friction by air will resist the movement resulting in decresement of kinetic energy and increased potential energy, thus ,at some point it will eventually come to rest .

What conditions are necessary for total internal reflection to occur?.

Answers

For total internal reflection to take place (i) light must travel from a denser medium to a rarer medium and (ii) the angle of incidence inside the denser medium must be greater

Answer: When a ray of light travels from an optically denser medium to an optically rarer medium and is incident at an angle greater than the critical angle for the two media, the ray totally reflects back into the medium, obeying the laws of reflection. This phenomenon is known as the total internal reflection.

The Earth pulls on the Sun with the same magnitude force that the Sun pulls on the Earth. If these forces are equal, why does Earth go in orbit around the Sun? Why does Earth experience a great centripetal acceleration, while the Sun doesn't?

Answers

Answer:

For every force there is an equal and opposite reaction force.

For instance, if one wants to find the acceleration of a person standing on a scales, he uses the force exerted by the scales on the person,

One doesn't consider the reaction force of the person on the scales.

Likewise for the force of the sun on the earth

m v^2 / R = G M m / R^2 descibes the force acting on the earth to produce the centripetal acceleration of v^2 / R

The sun experiences the same centripetal acceleration as the earth, but since the mass of the sun is about 333,000 times the mass of the earth the acceleration can be ignored for most purposes.

When a satellite experiences an acceleration of v^2 / r, the earth is undergoing the same centripetal acceleration. However since the mass of the earth is much greater than that of a satellite and the centripetal acceleration of the earth is ignored.

Part 1 of 3: 2.4 cm³ of water is boiled at atmospheric pressure to become 4514.7 cm³ of steam, also at atmospheric pressure. Calculate the work done by the gas during this process. The latent heat of vaporization of water is 2.26 × 10⁶ J/kg. Answer in units of J.

Part 2 of 3: Find the amount of heat added to the water to accomplish this process. Answer in units of J.

Part 3 of 3: Find the change in internal energy. Answer in units of J.

Answers

During the isobaric expansion;

work done by the gas is 457.2 Jheat absorbed by the water is 4520 Jthe change in internal energy of a system is 4062.8 J.

What is the work done by a gas in an isolated process?

The work done by a gas in an isolated expansion is the product of pressure and change in volume.

[tex]W = p\times \Delta V[/tex]

1 atm = 101325 Pa

2.4 cm³ = 2.4 × 10^-6 m³

4514.7 cm³ = 4514.7 × 10^-6 m³

[tex]W = 101325 Pa \times (4514.7\times 10^{-6} m^3 - 2.4\times10^{-6} m^3) = 457.2 J \\ [/tex]

Thus, work done by the gas is 457.2 J

Tje Heat absorbed by the water during vaporization process is calculated using the formul:

Q = m×ΔHvap

mass of water = density × volume

mass of water = 1 g/cm³ × 2.4 cm³ = 2 g = 0.002 kg

Q = 0.002 kg × 2.26 × 10⁶ J/kg

Q = 4520 J

Thus, heat absorbed by the water is 4520 J

The change in internal energy, ΔU of a system is given as the heat absorbed minus the work done by the system.

[tex]\Delta U = Q-W [/tex]

ΔU = 4520 J − 457.2 J = 4062.8 J

Therefore, the change in internal energy of a system is 4062.8 J.
