A toy uses a spring to shoot an arrow with a suction cup on the end. The toy shoots a 34.2 g arrow and gives it a speed of 5.50

m/s. If the efficiency of the toy is 69.0%, how much elastic potential energy was stored in the spring? Show all your work.

Explanation:

When a spring propels an arrow, the stored Elastic Potential Energy is transformed into Kinetic Energy.

The efficiency of the Spring Toy is rated at 69%

According to the Conservation of Energy principle:

P. E. = K. E.

Thus,

69% of the stored P. E. equals m * v^2 / 2

P.E. = \frac{0.0342 \times 5.5 \times 5.5}{2 \times 0.69} = 0.75J

Which of the following statements are true for electric field lines? Check all that apply. Check all that apply. Electric field
Keith_Richards [3271]

Answer:

Electric field lines radiate from positive charges and converge on negative charges. True

Electric field lines are continuous and do not have a start or end point. False

Electric field lines can never cross each other. True

In regions of space where the electric field is weak, the field lines are farther apart, and they are closer together in regions where it's strong. False

At any given point in space, the electric field vector aligns with the tangent to the electric field line at that location. True

Explanation:

Electric field lines emanate from positive charges and draw towards negative charges. They always move away from positive charges and head towards negative ones.

Electric field lines are continuous, without a definitive start or finish. False  

As the lines originate from positive charges and terminate at negative ones.

Electric field lines cannot cross one another. True

It’s not possible for them to intersect, as this would imply the field has multiple directions at one point. Moreover, the actual field value at that point would need to be determined by combining both field lines.

Electric field lines are spaced close together in areas where the electric field magnitude is potent and spaced apart in weak regions.False

This is incorrect as regions with higher field strength have lines that are closer together, while weaker regions have them farther apart.

At each location in space, the electric field vector coincides with the tangent to the corresponding field line at that point. True

This statement aligns with the definition of electric field lines.

When you urinate, you increase pressure in your bladder to produce the flow. For an elephant, gravity does the work. An elephant
ValentinkaMS [3465]

Answer:

a) v = 1.19 m/s, b) P₁ = 0.922 x 10⁵ Pa

Explanation:

1) We will apply the fluid continuity equation

       Q = A v

The area of a circle is

      A = π r² = π d²/4

     

     v = Q / A = Q 4 / π d²

     v = 0.006 4/π 0.08²

     v =  1.19 m/s

2) Apply Bernoulli's equation, considering point 1 as the bladder and point 2 as where the urine exits

     P₁ + ½ ρ v₁² + ρ g y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² + ρ g y₂

The problem states that

P₂ = 1.0013 x 10⁵ Pa

v₁ = 0

y₁ = 1 m

y₂ = 0

Density of water (ρ) = 1000 kg/m³

      P₁ + ρ y₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂²

      P₁ = P₂ + ½ ρ v₂² - ρ g y₁

      P₁ = 1.013 x 10⁵ + ½ 1000 (1.19)² - 1000 9.8 1

      P₁ = 1.013 x 10⁵ + 708.5  - 9800

      P₁ =  92208.5 Pa

      P₁ = 0.922 x 10⁵ Pa

A skateboarder is attempting to make a circular arc of radius r = 16 m in a parking lot. The total mass of the skateboard and sk
kicyunya [3294]

To address this question, we will utilize concepts linked to centripetal force, aligning it with the static frictional force acting on the object. Using this relationship, we can derive the velocity and input the known values. The defined values are:

r = 16m

m = 82kg

\mu_s = 0.63

The maximum velocity can be determined using centripetal force,

F_c = \frac{mv^2}{r}

Should be equal to,

\frac{mv^2}{r} = \mu_s mg

v = \sqrt{\mu_s gr}

v = \sqrt{(0.63)(9.8)(16)}

v = 9.93m/s

As a result, the highest speed achievable through the arc without slipping is 9.93m/s

A copper sphere was moving at 25 m/s when it hit another object. This caused all of the KE to be converted into thermal energy f
kicyunya [3294]

Answer:

\Delta T = 0.81 ^oC

Explanation:

According to the principle of energy conservation

all kinetic energy will change into thermal energy to increase its temperature

\frac{1}{2}mv^2 = ms\Delta T

Next, divide both sides by the object's mass

\frac{1}{2}v^2 = s\Delta T

the resulting temperature change is expressed as

\Delta T = \frac{v^2}{2s}

\Delta T = \frac{25^2}{2\times 387}

\Delta T = 0.81^oC

What is the kinetic energy of a 100 kg object that is moving with a speed of 12.5m/s
Softa [3030]

The formula for the kinetic energy of any object in motion is

                           (1/2) (mass) (velocity²).

For the object you've mentioned, it translates to

                            (1/2) (100 kg) (12.5 m/s)²

                         =      (50 kg)  (156.25 m²/s²)

                         =              7,812.5 joules
