Answer:
Explanation:
a )
Energy stored by left spring when compressed = 1/2 k x²
= .5 x 10 x .02² = .002 J .
Let compression in right spring = y
energy stored to right spring = 1/2 k y²
1/2 k y² = 0.002
.5 x 20 x y² = 0.002
y = .01414 m
= 1.4 cm
Mechanical energy can have mechanical systems. The only mechanical system in the list is the compressed spring. A car battery and a glowing incandescent lightbulb have electrical energy, a nucleus of atom has potential (internal) energy.
Answer:
Star formation occurs most rapidly in the spiral arms, where the density of interstellar matter is highest.
Answer: 3.5 seconds
EXPLANATION:
Using the formula:
v = u + at
And taking the upwards direction as positive, we have the following information:
u = 35 m/s
a = -10m/s^2 (this is acceleration due to gravity)
At the top of its path, the apple will have a velocity of 0 m/s, therefore:
v = 0m/s
Once you substitute everything into the formula, you get:
0 = 35 + (-10)t
Therefore, t = 35/10 = 3.5 seconds
