Apendulum swings back and forth and has a kinetic energy of 400 j at a particular point in its path. which of the following is not true a- both the kinetic and potential energy are decreasing b- the minimum kinetic energy is zero c- when the kinetic energy is zero, the potential energy will be 400 j d- the potential energy increases when the kinetic energy decreases

An ideal spring has a spring constant (force constant) of 2500 n/m, is stretched 4.0 cm, how much elastic potential energy does it possess? (a) 3j (b) 0.00j (c) 1j (d) 2j (e) 4j

1. consider the case in which air fills air shocks on a truck trailer. the pressure in the shocks is 2 mpa. the temperature is 300 k. the diameter of the shock piston is 10 cm and the initial length of the cylindrical cavity containing the compressed air is 40 cm. a. the truck is gradually loaded over a period of a day in a static setting. the temperature is held constant for the atmosphere and thus for the gas shock. calculate the compressibility of the air in the shock for this condition when the truck is initially being loaded. b. if the shocks were loaded in a dynamic setting by driving over bumps, what would be the compressibility? state your assumption. c. what is the initial load on the shock if the shock is in an atmospheric 100 kpa? d. if the shock is compressed using the process described in part a, and the air shock compressed air cavity length decreases to 20 cm, what is the additional load applied to the shock?

Which configuration would produce an electric current? a) rotate a coil of copper wire between two magnets. b) connect a wire between a copper and zinc strip sitting in a beaker of water. c) connect a wire to the (+) positive end of a battery and the other end to a light bulb. d) connect a wire to the negative end of a battery and the other end to a light bulb.
