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

: Does increasing temperature increase pressure?
Vesnalui [34]
Yes, an increase in temperature is accompanied by an increase in pressure. Temperature is the measurement of heat present and more heat means more energy. Molecules in hotter temperatures move faster and more often, eventually moving into the gaseous phase. The molecules would fill the container, and the hotter it got the more they would bounce off the walls, pushing outward, increasing the pressure.
I suppose you could measure this with some kind of loosely inflated balloon and subject it to different temperatures and then somehow measure the size/pressure of it.

A 250 kg cart is at the top of a hill that is 32 m high, what is its potential energy?
atroni [7]

Answer:

<h2>80,000 J</h2>

Explanation:

The potential energy of a body can be found by using the formula

PE = mgh

where

m is the mass

h is the height

g is the acceleration due to gravity which is 10 m/s²

From the question we have

PE = 250 × 10 × 32

We have the final answer as

<h3>80,000 J</h3>

Hope this helps you
