- In Chapter 3 we saw that the electric forces acting between neighboring atoms behave very much like springs, with the spring stiffness being in the range of up to a few tens of Newtons per meter. Consider a molecule made up of two atoms of the same kind, each atom having a mass of 6.5 x 10-27 kg. Suppose that the center of the spring does not move, in which case you can model the motion of one of the atoms as that of a single atom connected to a half-length spring. If we should observe that a gas of these molecules emits photons whose energies are integer multiples of 2.4 x 10-2 eV, what would be the stiffness of the half-length "spring"? half-length k, = i N/marrow_forwardA 4.0 kg toy car can move along an x axis. The figure gives Fx of the force acting on the car, which begins at rest at time t = 0. The scale on the Fx axis is set by Fxs = 4.0 N. In unit-vector notation, what is P→ at (a)t = 6.0 s and (b)t = 2.0 s,(c) what is v→ at t = 5.0 s?arrow_forwardA satellite in Earth orbit has a mass of 99 kg and is at an altitude of 2.01 x 10° m. (Assume that U = 0 as r → o.) (a) What is the potential energy of the satellite-Earth system? (b) What is the magnitude of the gravitational force exerted by the Earth on the satellite? N (c) What force, if any, does the satellite exert on the Earth? (Enter the magnitude of the force, if there is no force enter 0.) Narrow_forward

- Two sticky spheres are suspended from light ropes of length L that are attached to the ceiling at a common point. Sphere A has mass 2m and is hanging at rest with its rope vertical. Sphere B has mass m and is held so that its rope makes an angle with the vertical that puts B a vertical height H above A. Sphere B is released from rest and swings down, collides with sphere A, and sticks to it. In terms of H, what is the maximum height above the original position of A reached by the combined spheres after their collision?arrow_forwardThe 510-kg uniform beam is subjected to the three external loads shown.
