What type of reaction occurs when a candle is burned?

A spring of force constant 285.0 N/m and unstretched length 0.230 m is stretched by two forces, pulling in opposite directions a

Kaylis [27]

Answer: W = 0.3853 J, e = 0.052 m

Explanation: Given that,

K =285.0N/M , L = 0.230m , F = 15N , e = ?

F = Ke

15 = 285 × e

e = 15÷ 285

e =0.052 m

e + L = 0.052 + 0.230

= 0.282m ( spring new length )

Work needed to stretch the spring

W = 1/2ke2

W = 1/2 × 285 x 0.052 × 0.052

W = 0.3853 J

a race car accelerates uniformly from 18.5 m/s to 46.1m/s in 2.47 seconds detrrmine the acceleration of the car and distance tra

LenaWriter [7]

Because acceleration is constant, the acceleration of the car at any time is the same as its average acceleration over the duration. So

$a=\dfrac{\Delta v}{\Delta t}=\dfrac{46.1\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}-18.5\,\frac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}}{2.47\,\mathrm s}=11.2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}$

Now, we have that

${v_f}^2-{v_0}^2=2a\Delta x$

so we end up with a distance traveled of

$\left(46.1\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)^2-\left(18.5\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s}\right)^2=2\left(11.2\,\dfrac{\mathrm m}{\mathrm s^2}\right)\Delta x$

$\implies\Delta x=79.6\,\mathrm m$

Imagine an infinite earth with a hole dripped through it. You fall in and accelerate at g~10m/s/s. How long until you reach the

Soloha48 [4]

An object with non-zero mass (even negligible mass is non-zero) will never reach the speed of light. Due to relativistic effects, each "unit" of acceleration becomes less effective at increasing your velocity (relative to some other object, of course) as your relative velocity approaches the speed of light.

And even if there was a way, If you would accelerate to the 99,99% of the speed light in just 1 second, you would experience a G-force of aprox. 30,600,000 g's which is enough to kill you in a few seconds

PolarNik [594]

Complete Question

An oil tanker has collided with a smaller vessel, resulting in an oil spill in a large, calm-water bay of the ocean. You are investigating the environmental effects of the accident and need to know the area of the spill. The tanker captain informs you that 18000 liters of oil have escaped and that the oil has an index of refraction of n = 1.1. The index of refraction of the ocean water is 1.33. From the deck of your ship you note that in the sunlight the oil slick appears to be blue. A spectroscope confirms that the dominant wavelength from the surface of the spill is 485 nm. Assuming a uniform thickness, what is the largest total area oil slick

Answer:

The largest total area of the oil slick $A = 8.257 *10^{9} \ m^2$
