A 0.500 kg block is sitting on a horizontal, frictionless surface. The block is connected to a horizontal spring with a force constant of 124 N/m. The other end of the horizontal spring rests against a wall. When a 100.0 g arrow is fired into the wooden block, the spring compresses by 25 cm. (a) What is the maximum potential energy of the spring?

(b) What was the speed of the arrow and block just after collision?

(c) What was the initial kinetic energy of the arrow?

(d) Explain any difference between (a) and (b).

The intensity, or loudness, of a sound can be measured in decibels (db), according to the equation , where i is the intensity of a given sound and is the threshold of hearing intensity. what is the intensity, in decibels, [i(db)], when ? use a calculator. round to the nearest whole number. 8 9 19 80

Give your knowledge of these things in your paper, you will compare and contrast analog and digital signals to determine which is more reliable for encoding and transmitting information. you’ll compare these features: signal shape numerical values for signal measurements amount of data that can be transmitted energy requirements privacy and security (ability of the signal to be encoded in a secret code) clarity of signal in the space provided, write down what you already know about any of these features. if you’re not sure, write down questions you might have about the features.

An open cart is moving along a straight frictionless horizontal track. when rain starts falling vertically into the cart, what happens to the speed of the cart?
