(a) The compression of the spring is 0.074 m.

(b) The potential energy of block will be converted to elastic potential energy of the spring when the block comes to rest.

<h3>Compression of the spring [ x ]</h3>

The compression of the spring is calculated as follows;

F = kx

mg = kx

x = mg/k

where;

  • m is mass of the object
  • k is the spring constant

x = (3 x 9.8) / (400)

x = 0.074 m

<h3>Motion of the block</h3>

Based on the principle of conservation of energy, the potential energy of block will be converted to elastic potential energy of the spring when the block comes to rest.

In a heat engine if 1000 j of heat enters the system the piston does 500 j of work, what is the final internal energy of the sys
son4ous [18]

Answer:

2500 J

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the first law of thermodynamics:

\Delta U =U_f - U_i =Q-W

where

Uf is the final internal energy of the system

Ui is the initial internal energy

Q is the heat added to the system

W is the work done by the system

In this problem, we have:

Q = +1000 J (heat that enters the system)

W = +500 J (work done by the system)

Ui = 2000 J (initial internal energy)

Using these numbers, we can re-arrange the equation to calculate the final internal energy:

U_f = U_i + Q-W=2000 J+1000 J-500 J=2500 J

How do the nonliving parts of earth's systems provide the basic materials to support life?
MatroZZZ [7]
The abiotic community of the ecosystem or the nonliving objects in the earth's biosphere influences the survival, growth and development of the organism. They provide basic mmaterials to support life by the biogeochemical processes which is composed of many biological and environmental cycles which profoundly has factored the intiation and continuation of life on earth. They also provide the basic materials to support life by the undergoing process which is also initiated by the living creatures or the biotic society of the ecosystem.

How does string theory point to a multiverse?
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

In string theory, the multiverse is a theory in which our universe is not the only one; many universes exist parallel to each other. These distinct universes within the multiverse theory are called parallel universes. A variety of different theories lend themselves to a multiverse viewpoint.

A college student is working on her physics homework in her dorm room. her room contains a total of 6.0×1026 gas molecules. as s
ella [17]
<span>6.6 degrees C Let's model the student as a 125 w furnace that's been operating for 11 minutes. So 125 w * 11 min = 125 kg*m^2/s^3 * 11 min * 60 s/min = 82500 kg*m^2/s^2 = 82500 Joule So the average kinetic energy increase of each gas molecule is 82500 J / 6.0x10^26 = 1.38x10^-22 J Now the equation that relates kinetic energy to temperature is: E = (3/2)Kb*Tk E = average kinetic energy of the gas particles Kb = Boltzmann constant (1.3806504Ă—10^-23 J/K) Tk = Kinetic temperature in Kelvins Notice the the energy level of the gas particles is linear with respect to temperature. So we don't care what the original temperature is, we just need to know by how much the average energy of the gas particles has increased by. So let's substitute the known values and solve for Tk E = (3/2)Kb*Tk 1.38x10^-22 J = (3/2)1.3806504Ă—10^-23 J/K * Tk 1.38x10^-22 J = 2.0709756x10^-23 J/K * Tk 6.64 K = Tk Rounding to 2 significant digits gives 6.6K. So the temperature in the room will increase by 6.6 degrees K or 6.6 degrees C, or 11.9 degrees F.</span>
