<span>The discoveries Mme Curie made were of great benefit to physics, chemistry and medicine. During the time she was doing her research, the health effects of ionizing radiation were not known. The amount of radiation that she was exposed to led to her death. Even today her notebooks and other personal effects are highly contaminated with radioactive material.

Answer:
k = 200 N/m
Explanation:
given,
mass of the object = 251 g
= 251 x 10⁻³ Kg = 0.251 Kg
distance of tendon stretch = x = 1.23 cm
= 1.23 x 10⁻² = 0.0123 m
using the formula
F = k x
where
k is the force constant of the tendon
F = m g
F = 0.251 x 9.8 = 2.4598 N
2.4598 = k x 0.0123
k = 199.98 N/m
k = 200 N/m
hence, force constant of the tendon is approximately equal to 200 N/m
Answer:
3.90 degrees
Explanation:
Let g= 9.81 m/s2. The gravity of the 30kg grocery cart is
W = mg = 30*9.81 = 294.3 N
This gravity is split into 2 components on the ramp, 1 parallel and the other perpendicular to the ramp.
We can calculate the parallel one since it's the one that affects the force required to push up
F = WsinΘ
Since customer would not complain if the force is no more than 20N
F = 20
So the ramp cannot be larger than 3.9 degrees
Answer:
40 J
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Force (F) = 10 N
Distance (s) = 4 m
Workdone (Wd) =?
Work done is simply defined as the product of force and distance moved in the direction of the force. Mathematically, we can express the Workdone as:
Workdone = force × distance
Wd = F × s
With the above formula, we can obtain the workdone as follow:
Force (F) = 10 N
Distance (s) = 4 m
Workdone (Wd) =?
Wd = F × s
Wd = 10 × 4
Wd = 40 J
Thus, 40 J of work was done.
