Answer: C
X = Displacement of the spring
Hooke's law: It states that the applied force F is proportional to the displacement of spring .
F ∝ x
Where, x = displacement of spring in meters
F = force, measured in Newtons
In another words The force F is equal to the constant K times the disparagement.
F = k.x
Where k is constant and it depends on elastic material.
Spring has restorative force.
If the spring moves in opposite direction then,
F = - k.x
A negative sign indicates that the spring resists and force is to the left. The compression of the spring is greater than the restoring force.
Example: A mass 'm' stretches a spring at a displacement x.
The magnetic field direction and direction of induced current in a wire are related by the right hand grip rule. Since the magnetic field was upwards, the thumb points upwards and the fingers curl around it. When viewed from above, it is seen as a current flowing in the counter clockwise direction.
Absolutely ! If you have two vectors with equal magnitudes and opposite
directions, then one of them is the negative of the other. Their correct
vector sum is zero, and that's exactly the magnitude of the resultant vector.
(Think of fifty football players pulling on each end of the rope in a tug-of-war.
Their forces are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign, and the flag that
hangs from the middle of the rope goes nowhere, because the resultant
force on it is zero.)
This gross, messy explanation is completely applicable when you're totaling up
the x-components or the y-components.
Your list of choices is a very short list, and doesn't include any
correct explanation.
The mass of an atom is roughly the number of protons AND neutrons
in its nucleus, but the element only depends on how many protons are there.
Different atoms of the same element may have different numbers of
neutrons, so their masses are different. But they're the same element,
because they all have the same number of protons.
