A new piece of exercise equipment has been added to your gym, and you try it out. To use this machine, you lie horizontal on a mat with your feet against a platform perpendicular to the mat. The platform is held by a stiff spring that is compressed when the platform moves. Your workout invovles compressing the spring by pushing on the platform with your feet. After testing compressions of the equipment, you determine that you must do 85.0 J of work to compress the spring a distance 0.170 m from its uncompressed length.What magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform stationary at the final distance given above

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

500 N

Explanation:

Since the work done on the spring W = Fx where F = force applied and x = compression length = 0.170 m (since the spring will be compressed its full length when the force is applied)

Since W = 85.0 J and we need to find F,

F = W/x

= 85.0 J/0.170 m

= 500 N

So, the  magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform stationary at the final distance given above is 500 N.

PLZZZZZZZZZ HELPPPPP. BRAINLEST GIVEN What is a force of attraction between an object and the earth due to gravity?

Answers

Answer:

acceleration due to gravity: -9.8 m/s^2

Fg=mass of object*(-9.8)

Explanation:

This is a pretty vague question, but I'll answer as best I can.

All matter has gravity. YOU have gravity, although your gravitational pull is small. So, the force of attraction between the Earth and an object on Earth is modeled as

Force of gravity=(Gravitational constant*mass of object 1*mass of object  2)/distance between objects squared

Note that distance between an object on Earth and Earth is the radius of Earth (distance to Earth's core/center of mass)

A stone of mass 0.2kg is thrown vertically upwards from the ground with a velocity of 20m/s. Find the maximum height attained by the stone

Answer: 20.4 m

Explanation: speed v upward is v = vo -gt.

When maximum height v = 0, vo -gt = 0 and

T = vo / g = 20 m/s / 9.81 m/s² = 2.04 s

Now height y = vot -0.5 gt^2 = 20,4 m

Answer:

1. Mechanical energy = 298.4 Joules.

2. Mechanical energy = 2140 Joules.

3. Mechanical energy = 0.2838 Joules.

Explanation:

Kinetic energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its motion.

Mathematically, kinetic energy is given by the formula;

[tex] K.E = \frac{1}{2}MV^{2}[/tex]

Where;

K.E represents kinetic energy measured in Joules.

M represents mass measured in kilograms.

V represents velocity measured in metres per seconds square.

Potential energy can be defined as an energy possessed by an object or body due to its position.

Mathematically, potential energy is given by the formula;

[tex] P.E = mgh[/tex]

Where,

P.E represents potential energy measured in Joules.

m represents the mass of an object.

g represents acceleration due to gravity measured in meters per seconds square.

h represents the height measured in meters.

Given the following data;

1. Kinetic energy = 182.2 J

Potential energy = 116.2 J

To find the mechanical energy;

Mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy

Mechanical energy = 182.2 + 116.2

Mechanical energy = 298.4 Joules.

2. Mass = 40kg

Velocity = 3m/s

Height = 5m

We know that acceleration due to gravity is equal to 9.8m/s²

To find the mechanical energy;

We would determine the kinetic and potential energy respectively.

K.E = ½mv²

K.E = ½*40*3²

K.E = 20*9

K.E = 180 Joules.

P.E = mgh

P.E = 40*9.8*5

P.E = = 1960 Joules

Mechanical energy = K.E + P.E

Mechanical energy = 180 + 1960

Mechanical energy = 2140 Joules.

3. Mass = 0.002kg

Height = 3m

Velocity = 15m/s

To find the mechanical energy;

K.E = ½mv²

K.E = ½*0.002*15²

K.E = 0.001*225

K.E = 0.225 Joules.

P.E = mgh

P.E = 0.002*9.8*3

P.E = = 0.0588 Joules

Mechanical energy = K.E + P.E

Mechanical energy = 0.225 + 0.0588

Mechanical energy = 0.2838 Joules.

mass = 20Kg

The tuning fork has a frequency of 426.7 is found to cause resonance in a closed column of air measuring 0.186 (the diameter of the tube is 0.015m) find the velocity of the sound produced by the tuning fork.

Answers

Answer:

The velocity of the tuning fork sound is 317.4648 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The frequency of the fork, f = 426.7 Hz

The length of the closed air column, L = 0.186 m

The diameter of the tube, d = 0.15 m

At the fundamental frequency in a closed tube, we have;

λ = 4·L

Where;

λ = The wavelength of the wave

L = The length of the tube

From the equation for the velocity of a wave, we have;

v = f·λ

Where;

v = The velocity of the (sound) wave

f = The frequency of the wave = 426.7 Hz

λ = 4·L = 4 × 0.186 m = 0.744 m

∴ v = 426.7 Hz × 0.744 m = 317.4648 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the sound produced by the tuning fork, v = 317.4648 m/s

in hydraulic pressure the area of the larger piston is half of the smaller piston.if the force of 4000N is applied on the smaller piston.what is the distance covered by the train ?​

Answers

Answer:

The distance moved by the train is half the distance moved by the force

Explanation:

Given that the force applied to the smaller piston, F₂ = 4,000 N

The pressure in the area of the larger piston, A₁ = 2 × The pressure in the smaller piston, A₂

∴ A₁ = 2 × A₂

We have;

[tex]\dfrac{A_1}{A_2} = \dfrac{2\cdot A_2 }{A_2} =2 = \dfrac{F_1}{F_2}[/tex]

F₁ = 2·F₂ = 2 × 4,000 N = 8,000 N

F₁·d₁ = F₂·d₂

∴ 8,000 N ×d₁ = 4,000 N × d₂

d₁ = 1/2·d₂

∴ The distance moved by the train is half the distance moved by the force

If a motor is rated at 5.6KW, work done in 20minutes is equal to:​

Answers

Answer:

given Power= 5.6×1000=5600watt

t=20min=20×60=1200sec. work done=?

P=w/t

w=pt=5600×1200=672×10^4Joule

The amount of work done by the motor is equal to 6.72 Megajoules.

Given the following data:

Time = 20 minutesPower = 5.6 Kilowatt = 5600 Watts.

Conversion:

1 minute = 60 seconds20 minutes = [tex]20 \times 60 = 1200[/tex] seconds.

To determine the amount of work done by the motor:

Mathematically, the work done by an object with respect to power and time is given by the formula:

[tex]Work\;done = power \times time[/tex]

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

[tex]Work\;done = 5600 \times 1200[/tex]

Work done = 6,720,000 Joules

An experiment is carried out to measure the extension of a rubber band for different loads.

Answers

Complete question is;

An experiment is carried out to measure the extension of a rubber band for different loads.

The results are shown in the image attached.

What figure is missing from the table?

Answer:

17.3 cm

Explanation:

The image attached showed values for load, extension and initial length.

Now, the first length there is 15.2 cm and as such it's corresponding extension is 0 because it has no preceding measured length.

The second measured length is 16.2 cm. Since it's initial measured length is 15.2 cm, then the extension has a formula; final length - initial length.

This gives: 16.2 - 15.2 = 1 cm

This corresponds to what is given in the table.

For the next measured length, it is blank but we are given the extension to be 2.1 cm. Now, since the initial measured length is 15.2 cm.

Thus;

2.1 cm = Final length - 15.2 cm

Final length = 15.2 + 2.1

Final length = 17.3 cm

If two monochromatic light waves undergo destructive interference, the amplitude of the resultant wave is

Answers

Answer: The amplitude is 0. (assuming that the amplitude ot both initial waves is the same)

Explanation:

When two monochromatic light waves of the same wavelength and same amplitude undergo destructive interference, means that the peak of one of the waves coincides with the trough of the other, so the waves "cancel" each other in that point in space.

Then if two light waves undergo destructive interference, the amplitude of the resultant wave in that particular point is 0.

Answer:

No, the resulting wave in the diagram does not demonstrate destructive interference. The resulting wave in the diagram shows a bigger wave than Wave 1 or Wave 2. If it demonstrated destructive interference, it would be a smaller wave or a horizontal line. With destructive interference, waves break down to form a smaller wave, or cancel each other out, resulting in no wave formation.
