Answer:

29.4 N/m

0.1

Explanation:

a) The restoring force is described by: F_r = -k*x.

The gravitational force is given as: F_g = mg.

Where:

F_r = restoring force,

F_g = gravitational force,

g represents acceleration due to gravity,

and k is the force constant, while x1 and x2 are the displacements for the two masses.

Given:

m1 = 1.29 kg,

m2 = 0.3 kg,

x1 = -0.75 m,

x2 = -0.2 m,

g = 9.8 m/s².

Substituting the information yields:

F_r = F_g

-k*x1 + k*x2 = m1*g - m2*g.

Solving gives k = 29.4 N/m.

b) To find the unloaded length l:

l = x1 - (F_1/k).

Given:

m1 = 1.95kg, x1 = -0.75m.

Substituting in provides:

l = x1 - (F_1/k) = 0.1.

Maru [2360]

Answer:

0.0984

Explanation:

The first diagram below illustrates a free body diagram that will aid in resolving this problem.

According to the diagram, the force's horizontal component can be expressed as:

F_X = F_{cos \ \theta}

Substituting 42° for θ and 87.0° for F

F_X =87.0 \ N \ *cos \ 42 ^\circ

F_X =64.65 \ N

Meanwhile, the vertical component is:

F_Y = Fsin \ \theta

Again substituting 42° for θ and 87.0° for F

F_Y =87.0 \ N \ *sin \ 42 ^\circ

F_Y =58.21 \ N

In resolving the vector, let A denote the components in mutually perpendicular directions.

The magnitudes of both components are illustrated in the second diagram provided and can be represented as A cos θ and A sin θ

The frictional force can be expressed as:

f = \mu \ N

Where;

\mu is the coefficient of friction

N = the normal force

Also, the normal reaction (N) is calculated as mg - F sin θ

Substituting F_Y \ for \ F_{sin \ \theta}. Normal reaction becomes:

N = mg \ - \ F_Y

By balancing the forces, the horizontal component of the force equals the frictional force.

The horizontal component is described as follows:

F_X = \mu \ ( mg - \ F_Y)

Rearranging the equation above to isolate \mu leads to:

\mu \ = \ \frac{F_X}{mg - F_Y}

Substituting in the following values:

F_X \ = \ 64.65 \ N

m = 73 kg

g = 9.8 m/s²

F_Y = \ 58.21 N

Thus:

\mu \ = \ \frac{64.65 N}{(73.0 kg)(9.8m/s^2) - (58.21 \ N)}

\mu = 0.0984

Therefore, the coefficient of friction is = 0.0984

A closed system of mass 10 kg undergoes a process during which there is energy transfer by work from the system of 0.147 kJ per
Softa [2035]

Result: -50.005 kJ

Details:

Provided Data

mass of the system = 10 kg

work done = 0.147 kJ/kg

Elevation change (\Delta h)=-50 m

initial speed (v_1)=15 m/s

Final Speed (v_2)=30 m/s

Specific internal Energy (\Delta U)=-5 kJ/kg

according to the first Law of thermodynamics

Q-W=\Delta H

\Delta H=\Delta KE+ \Delta PE +\Delta U

where KE represents kinetic energy

PE indicates potential energy

U denotes internal Energy

\Delta H=\frac{m(v_2^2-v_1^2)}{2}+mg(\Delta h)+\Delta U

Q=W+\Delta KE+ \Delta PE +\Delta U

Q=0.147\times 10+\frac{10\cdot (30^2-15^2)}{2}+10\cdot 9.81\cdot (-5)-5\times 10

Q = 1.47 + 3.375 - 4.850 - 50

Q = -50.005 kJ

A pole-vaulter is nearly motionless as he clears the bar, set 4.2 m above the ground. he then falls onto a thick pad. the top of
Yuliya22 [2438]
Refer to the diagram below.

Ignoring air resistance, use gravitational acceleration g = 9.8 m/s².

The pole vaulter drops with an initial vertical speed u = 0.
At impact with the pad, velocity v satisfies:
v² = 2 × (9.8 m/s²) × (4.2 m) = 82.32 (m/s)²
v = 9.037 m/s

As the pad compresses by 0.5 m to bring the vaulter to rest,
let the average acceleration (deceleration) be a m/s². Then:
0 = (9.037 m/s)² + 2 × a × 0.5 m
Solving for a gives:
a = - 82.32 / (2 × 0.5) = -82 m/s²

Thus, the deceleration magnitude is 82 m/s².

If the coefficient of static friction between a table and a uniform massive rope is μs, what fraction of the rope can hang over
inna [2210]
Here's the procedure explained: Assume F represents the portion of the rope that is extending over the table. In this scenario, the frictional force that holds the rope on the table can be calculated using the formula: Ff = u*(1-f)*m*g. Additionally, it is important to determine the gravitational force that attempts to pull the rope off the table, Fg, calculated through: Fg = f*m*g. You then need to set these two equations equal to each other and resolve for f: f*m*g = u*(1-f)*m*g leads to f = u*(1-f) = u - uf. Simplifying gives f + uf = u, which results in f = u/(1+u) representing the fraction of the rope. This will lead you to the final answer.

kicyunya [2264]
The resulting motion can be determined using the Pythagorean theorem, as the two components (north and east) are at right angles. To find the direction, trigonometry is applied, yielding Ф=arctan(3.8/12)=17.57° north of east.
