In general or valves are used to turn off or proportionately control the flow of fluid through any system. Your faucet in your bathroom is a type of valve. You can turn it all the way off and all the way on, but you can also turn it on a little bit at a time.

If the mass of a material is 50 grams and the volume of the material is 12 cm^3, what would the density of the material be?
AlekseyPX
The density of the material would be 
25/6 grams per cm^3.
to obtain the result above this is what we do:
density is calculated as: (the mass of the given material or object) / volume of the material 
which leads us to 50grams /12cm^3

Suppose a spring has a relaxed length of 28.3 cm. The simulation refers to this as the natural length. This is the length of the
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Normal length of spring = 28.3 cm

stretched length of spring = 38.2 cm

length of extension = 38.2 - 28.3 = 9.9 cm

= 9.9 x 10⁻² m

force applied to stretch = .55 x 9.8 ( mg )

= 5.39 N

Force constant = force applied / extension

= 5.39 / 9.9 x 10⁻²

= .5444 x 10² N /m

= 54.44 N/m

Why do plants produce their own food
Serhud [2]

Because way back, when there were some kinds of plants that made
their own food, and other kinds of plants that depended on dinosaurs or
people to bring them food, guess which ones starved and became extinct,
and which ones lived and are still among us today.

A block is resting on a platform that is rotating at an angular speed of 2.4 rad/s. The coefficient of static friction between t
Sloan [31]

Answer:

r = 0m is the Minimum distance from the axis at which the block can remain in place wothout skidding.

Explanation:

From a sum of forces:

Ff = m*a   where Ff = μ * N    and a = \frac{V^2}{r}=\omega^2*r

N - m*g = 0   So, N = m*g.   Replacing everything on the original equation:

\mu*m*g = m*\omega^2*r   (eq2)

Solving for r:

r = \frac{\mu*g}{\omega^2}=1.41m

If we analyze eq2 you can conclude that as r grows, the friction has to grow (assuming that ω is constant), so the smallest distance would be 0 and the greatest 1.41m. Beyond that distance, μ has to be greater than 0.83.
