The weight required to stretch the spring 12.5 cm is 7.5 N (Option A)

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>
  • Initial weight (W₁) = 3 N
  • Initial Length (L₁) = 5 cm
  • New length (L₂) = 12.5 cm
  • New Weight (W₂) =?

<h3>How to determine the new weight </h3>

The new weight required to stretch the spring can be obtained as follow:

W₁ / L₁ = W₂ / L₂

3 / 5 = W₂ / 12.5

Cross multiply

W₂ × 5 = 3 × 12.5

Divide both sides by 5

W₂ = (3 × 12.5) / 5

W₂ = 7.5 N

ikadub [295]

Answer:

Explanation:

From first law of thermodynamics

Q = ΔE + W

Q is heat added , ΔE is increase in internal energy and W is work done.

Here Q = - 963.6 kJ  , - ve sign because head is absorbed

ΔE - 2836 kJ  , negative sign given ( gas cooled )

Putting these values in the equation above

- 963.6 = - 2836 + W

W = 2836 -  963.6 kJ

= 1872.4 kJ .

A small bouncy ball with a momentum of 8 kg∙m/s to the left approaches head-on a large door at rest. The ball bounces straight b
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

-14 kg m/s

Explanation:

Taking the  direction "to the left" as positive direction, the initial momentum of the ball is

p1 = +8 kg m/s

while the final momentum is

p2 = -6 kg m/s

so the change in momentum is

\Delta p = p_2 - p_1 = -6kg m/s - (8 kg m/s) = -14 kg m/s

According to the impulse theorem, the impulse exerted on the ball is equal to the change in momentum of the ball, so:

I_1 = -14 kg m/s (which means 14 kg m/s to the right)

While the impulse that the ball exerted on the ball is equal and opposite in direction, so:

I_2 = + 14 kg m/s (which means towards the left)

Rotor windings in wound rotor motors are connected to ? on the shaft of the motor. Brushes allow those windings to be connected
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

Slip Rings

Explanation:

The wound rotor motor has a three-phase winding with each one connected to seperate slip rings. These slip rings contain brushes which form a secondary circuit where resistance can be inserted and this will allow for the rotor current to run more in phase with the stator current which will result in increased torque that is created
