When the spring is now placed horizontally on a table and stretched 11cm then the force required to stretch the spring would be 110 N.

<h3>What is the spring constant?</h3>

The spring constant is used to define the stiffness of the spring, the greater the value of the spring constant stiffer the spring and it is more difficult to stretch the spring.

The mathematical relation for calculating the spring constant is as follows

F = - Kx

where F represents the Force

x represents the amount of stretch in the spring

K represents the value of the spring constant

For the given problem that a load of 50N attached to a spring hanging vertically stretches the spring is 5cm

F= 50 N and x = 5 cm

K = F/x

  =50/5 N/ cm

  =10 N / cm

The spring constant for the spring is 10 N/ cm

Now the spring is placed horizontally on a table and stretched 11cm

by using the same formula we used earlier to calculate the spring constant

K = F/x

As we calculated the value of the spring constant (K) as 10 N / cm

by substituting K=10 N / cm and  x =11 cm

10 =F/11

F = 110 N

Thus, a force of 110 N force is required to stretch the spring when it is placed horizontally

A pan hangs from a 50 cm spring. When a 10 kg mass is placed in the pan, it stretches the spring 6 cm. What is a function rule l
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

Explanation:

A Spring stretches / compresses when force is applied on them and they are governed by the Hookes Law which states that the force required to stretch or compress a spring is directly proportional to the distance it is stretched.

F = -kx

F is the force applied and x is the elongation of the spring

k is the spring constant.

negative sign indicates the change in direction from equilibrium position.

In the given question, we dont have force but we know that the pan is hanging. We also know from the Newton's second law of motion that

F=mg

Inserting this into Hooke's Law

mg=-kx

computing it for x,

-x=mg/k

This is the model which will tell the length of the spring against change in the mass located in the pan.

Pitch marks are the invitations left by the ball when they fall on the green
Kipish [7]
You can mark, lift and clean a ball on the green, but it's a violation to do so when another ball is in motion, as your ball might influence the outcome of that stroke. You can also mark and clean your ball in some instances when it's off the green: cleaning it, for example, just to the point where you can identify it.

A pendulum on plant X is 0.25 meters long and the period is 4 seconds. What is “g” on Planet X?
Monica [59]

Answer:

The value of g = 0.6168 m/s².

Explanation:

Given that,

On a planet X,

Length of the pendulum(L) = 0.25 meters,

Time period of the pendulum(T) = 4 seconds.

We have to find the 'g' value on the planet.

The 'g' value on a planet can be found by a pendulum with help of the formula,

T = 2π × \frac{\sqrt{L} }{\sqrt{g} }

From this,  g = 4π² × \frac{L}{T^{2} }

Using the above formula and substituting the values,we get,

g = 0.6168 m/s².

in a human cannonball a person is shot from a cannon with a barrel that is 3.05 m long. 16700 J of work are done to accelerate t
ankoles [38]
The work done to accelerate the acrobat is given by
W=Fd
where F is the force applied and d the distance of application of the force.
If the barrel is 3.05 m long, then d=3.05 m. Therefore we can find the force:
F= \frac{W}{d} = \frac{17600 J}{3.05 m} =5475 N
