A dart is inserted into a spring-loaded dart gun by pushing the spring in by a distance x. For the next loading, the spring is c

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

The second dart leaves the gun two times as faster than the first one.

Explanation:

Assuming no energy loss during the spring-dart energy transfer, we have by the conservation of energy principle

$U_s = K_d \\ \frac{1}{2} kx^2 = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 \\ v = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}x^2}.$

Given an arbitrary $x$ and its double, $2x$ , launch velocities are

$v_1 = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}x^2} \text{ and} \\ v_2 = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}\left(2x\right)^2} = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m}4x^2} = 2\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}x^2} = \mathbf{2v_1}.$

A spherical helium filled balloon (B) with a hanging passenger cage being held by a single vertical cable (C) attached to Earth

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The tension is $T = 4326.7 \ N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The total mass is $m = 200 \ kg$

The radius is $r = 5 \ m$

The density of air is $\rho_a = 1.225 \ kg/m^3$

Generally the upward force acting on the balloon is mathematically represented as

$F_N = T + mg$

=> $(\rho_a * V * g ) = T + mg$

=> $T = (\rho_a * V * g ) - mg$

Here V is the volume of the spherical helium filled balloon which is mathematically represented as

$V = \frac{4}{3} * \pi r^3$

=> $V = \frac{4}{3} * 3.142 *(5)^3$

=> $V = 523.67\ m^3$

So

$T = (1.225 * 523.67* 9.8 ) - 200 * 9.8$

$T = 4326.7 \ N$

You move a 75-kg box 35 m. This requires a force of 90 N. how much work is done while moving the box?

Luda [366]

W = F*d.

= 90*35 = 3150J.
