When a mass is placed on a spring with a spring constant of 15 newtons per meter, the spring is compressed 0.25 meter. How much

Answer:

0.47 J

Explanation:

The elastic potential energy of a spring is given as,

E = 1/2ke²........................ Equation 1

Where E = Elastic potential energy, k = spring constant, e = extension/compression.

Given: k = 15 N/m, e = 0.25 m.

Substitute into equation 1.

E = 1/2(15)(0.25)²

E = 0.46875

E ≈ 0.47 J.

Hence the elastic potential energy stored in the spring = 0.47 J

a ball on a string makes 30.0 revolutions in 14.4s, in a circle of radius 0.340m. what is its period.(unit=s)
STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

0.480 seconds

Explanation:

The period is the time for 1 revolution.  Writing a proportion:

14.4 s / 30.0 rev = t / 1 rev

t = 0.480 s

The period is 0.480 seconds.

1. Why is the theory that all things are made up of atoms a theory and not a fact?
steposvetlana [31]
Because there is no record of all things. As we have partially unknow information, it can never be held as a fact.

Please Help Me I will try and give extra points if I can and if you have the rest of the answers to this then please help me out

First, you must know that the statement "<span>An object at rest tends to stay at rest. An object in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force." is true, because it is the first Law of Newton or inercy law.


what outside force acts on a baseball when it is thrown straight like a pitcher pitching a ball?

After the ball leaves the pitcher's hand, it is subject only to the gravitational attraction of the Earth. That is why the pitcher has to give the appropiate impulse in order to the ball reaches the point that he and the catcher want.

What about if you threw it straight into the air?

It is the same thing. The only force would be the gravitational attraction of the Earth.

What about if you threw the baseball in outer space. Would there be any forces to slow that down?

In outer space, at the beginning the baseball would be very far from of other massive objects to feel their gravitational field, so there would not be any forces to slow it down. Although eventulally, after many light-years, it would enter the gravitational field of a galaxy or other massive body and it would attract it.
