The force constant of the spring is determined as 14,222.2 N/m.

<h3>Force constant of the spring</h3>

Apply the principle of conservation of energy,

K.E = U

where;

K.E kinetic energy of the elevator
U is elastic potential energy of the spring

¹/₂mv² = ¹/₂kx²

mv² = kx²

k = mv²/x²

Where;

m is mass of the elevator
v is speed
x is compression of the spring

k = (2000 x 8²)/(3²)

k = 14,222.2 N/m

Thus, the force constant of the spring is determined as 14,222.2 N/m.

When 224-nm light falls on a metal, the current through a photoelectric circuit is brought to zero at a stopping voltage of 1.84

OLga [1]

Answer:

3.71 eV

Explanation:

λ = Wavelength of light = 224 nm = 224 x 10⁻⁹ m

c = speed of electromagnetic wave = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

V₀ = stopping potential = 1.84 volts

W₀ = Work function of the metal = ?

Using the equation

$\frac{hc}{\lambda } = eV_{o} + W_{o}$

$\frac{(6.63\times 10^{-34})(3\times 10^{8})}{224\times 10^{-9} } = (1.6\times 10^{-19})(1.84) + W_{o}$

$W_{o}$ = 5.94 x 10⁻¹⁹

$W_{o}$ = 3.71 eV

Marc attaches a falling 500-kg object with a rope through a pulley to a paddle wheel shaft. He places the system in a well-insul

Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

4.68227 °C

Explanation:

$m_o$ = Mass of object = 500 kg

$m_w$ = Mass of water = 25 kg

c = Specific heat of water at 20°C = 4186 J/kg°C

h = Height from which the object falls = 100 m

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

The potential energy and heat will balance each other

$PE=Q\\\Rightarrowmc m_ogh=m_oc\Delta T\\\Rightarrow \Delta T=\frac{m_ogh}{m_oc}\\\Rightarrow \Delta T=\frac{500\times 9.8\times 100}{25\times 4186}\\\Rightarrow \Delta=4.68227\ ^{\circ}C$

The temperature change in the water is 4.68227 °C
