0.36 J of work is done in stretching the spring from 15 cm to 18 cm.

To find the correct answer, we need to know about the work done to strech a string.

<h3>What is the work required to strech a string?</h3>
  • Mathematically, the work done to strech a string is given as 1/2 ×K×x².
  • K is the spring constant.
<h3>What will be the spring constant, if 40N force is required to hold a 10 cm to 15 cm streched spring?</h3>
  • The force experienced by a streched spring is given as Kx. x is the length of the spring streched from its natural length.
  • Then K = Force / x.
  • Here x = 15 - 10 = 5 cm = 0.05 m
  • K = 40/0.05 = 800N/m.
<h3>What will be the work required to strech that spring from 15 cm to 18 cm?</h3>
  • Work done = 1/2×k×x²
  • Here x= 18-15=3cm or 0.03 m
  • So, W= 1/2×800×0.03² = 0.36 J.

Thus, we can conclude that the work done is 0.36 J.

How did particles in the solar nebula eventually form earth
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

At the high temperatures of the inner solar nebula, the small proto-planets were too hot to hold the volatile gases that dominated the solar nebula. These proto-planets were Earth, Mars, Venus, and Mercury.

Explanation:

The materials that accreted into the early Earth were probably added piecemeal, without and particular order. The early earth was very hot from gravitational compression, impacts and radioactive decay; the earth was partially molted. The denser metallic liquids sank to the center of the Earth and less denser silicate liquids rose to the top. In this way the Earth differentiated very quickly into a metallic, mostly iron core and a rocky silicate mantle.

A proud new Jaguar owner drives her car at a speed of 25 m/s into a corner. The coefficients of friction between the road and th
ehidna [41]

Answer:

ac = 3.92 m/s²

Explanation:

In this case the frictional force must balance the centripetal force for the car not to skid. Therefore,

Frictional Force = Centripetal Force

where,

Frictional Force = μ(Normal Force) = μ(weight) = μmg

Centripetal Force = (m)(ac)

Therefore,

μmg = (m)(ac)

ac = μg

where,

ac = magnitude of centripetal acceleration of car = ?

μ = coefficient of friction of tires (kinetic) = 0.4

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

ac = (0.4)(9.8 m/s²)

<u>ac = 3.92 m/s²</u>
