Seed Question 15

A rubber band begins exerting a tension force when its length is 8 cm. As it is stretched to a length of 10 cm its tension increases with length, more or less steadily, until at the 10 cm length the tension is 3 Newtons.

Between the 8 cm and 10 cm length, what are the minimum and maximum tensions?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

At 8 cm tension is 0N at 10 cm tension is 3N so min = 0N and max = 3N

Assuming that the tension in the rubber band is 100% conservative (which is not actually the case) what is its elastic potential energy at the 10 cm length?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

F= 3N

'ds= 8cm - 10 cm = 2cm

'ds= .02m

Fave= 1.5N

'dw= fnet * 'ds

'dw= 1.5N * .02m

'dw= .03J

The KE is .03J because KE = 'dw

So PE is -.03J Because the tension on the rubber band is 100percent conservative and 'PE is work done against net conservative forces.

If all this potential energy is transferred to the kinetic energy of an initially stationary 20 gram domino, what will be the velocity of the domino?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

KE= .5m V^2

m= 20g

m= 20g * 1kg/1000g = .02kg

KE= .03J

.03J= .5(.02kg) V^2

.03J= .01kg v^2

V^2= 3M^2/s^2

v= 1.7m/s

If instead the rubber band is used to 'shoot' the domino straight upward, then how high will it rise?

answer/question/discussion: ->->->->->->->->->->->-> :

F=M*a

F= .02kg *9.8m/s^2

f= .196N

If tension is 100 percent conservative it is positive against negative force of gravity

Fnet= 3N - .196N = 2.804N

'dw= .03J

'dw= fnet * 'ds

.03J= 2.804N * 'ds

'ds= .011 meters
