Question: A pinball machine's plunger has a spring constant of 22
N/m and is compressed by 0.04 m to start a 0.006 kg pinball.
1. What is the elastic potential energy before the ball is released?
2. What is the kinetic energy of the pinball the instant it leaves the
spring?
3. What is the speed of the pinball the instant it leaves the spring?
4. If the pinball is moving at 1.3 m/s as it is deflected horizontally
across the top of the pinball machine, how much higher above the
ground is this part of its path when compared to its starting
position?

1. The elastic potential energy is 0.0176 Joules

2. The kinetic energy of the pinball the instant it leaves the spring is 0.0176 Joules

3. The speed of the pinball the instant it leaves the spring is approximately 2.42212 m/s

4. The height of the part where the pinball is located on the machine above the ground is approximately 0.213 meters

Explanation:

The spring constant of the pinball machine's plunger, k = 22 N/m

The amount by which the pinball machine's plunger is compressed, x = 0.04 m

The mass of the pinball ball, m = 0.006 kg

1. The elastic potential energy, P.E. = 1/2·k·x²

By substitution, we get;

P.E. = 1/2 × 22 N/m × (0.04 m)² = 0.0176 J

The elastic potential energy, P.E. = 0.0176 J

2. At the instant the pinball leaves the spring, the plunger and therefore the force of the plunger no longer acts on the pinball

Since there are no external forces acting on the pinball to increase the speed of the pinball after it leaves the spring, the velocity reached is its maximum velocity, and therefore, the kinetic energy, K.E. is the maximum kinetic energy which by the conservation of energy, is equal to the initial potential energy

Therefore;

K.E. = P.E. = 0.0176 J

The kinetic energy of the pinball the instant it leaves the spring, K.E.= 0.0176 J

3. The kinetic energy, K.E., is given by the following formula;

K.E. = 1/2·m·v²

Where;

v = The speed or velocity of the object having kinetic energy K.E.

Therefore, from K.E. = 0.0176 J, and by plugging in the values of the variables, we have;

K.E. = 0.0176 J = 1/2 × 0.006 kg × v²

v² = 0.0176 J/(1/2 × 0.006 kg) = 88/15 m²/s²

v = √(88/15 m²/s²) ≈ (2·√330)/15 m/s ≈ 2.42212 m/s

The speed of the pinball the instant it leaves the spring, v ≈ 2.42212 m/s

4. The height of the pinball is given by the following kinematic equation of motion;

² = u² - 2·g·h

Where;

= The velocity of the pinball at the given height = 1.3 m/s

u = v ≈ 2.42212 m/s (The initial velocity of the pinball as it the spring)

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.8 m/s²

h = The height of the pinball above the ground

We get;

² = 1.3² = 2.42212² - 2 × 9.8 × h

∴  h = (2.42212² - 1.3²)/(2 × 9.8) ≈ 0.213

The height of the part where the pinball is located on the machine above the ground, h ≈ 0.213 m

answer; how far out of place which the object finished relative to the starting location;

answer

procedural programming, object-oriented programming

explanation

procedural programming is a type of computer programming language that specifies a series of well structured steps and procedures   within its development period of time. it contains a systematic order of statements, functions and commands to complete a computational task or program. it is centered on creating procedures. while object oriented programming is a programming language that is centered on creating objects rather that actions and data rather than logic.. it has four principles which are inheritance, polymorphism, abstraction and encapsulation
