A 20-cm long spring is attached to the wall. When pulled horizontally with a force of 100N, the spring stretches to a length of

22cm. What is the value of the constant? A.) The same spring is used in a tug of war. Two people pull on the ends, each with a force of 100N. How long is the stretched string? B.) The same spring is now suspended from a hook and a 10.2kg block is attached to the bottom end. How long is the stretched spring?

Answer:

Explanation:

Part 0

All the spring moves is 2 cm

x = 2 cm * [1 m / 100 cm ]

x = 0.020 meters

F = k*d

100N = k * 0.02 m

100 N / 0.02 = k

5000 N / m

Part A

The spring feels a force of 100 N - - 100N = 200 N because each person is pulling in the opposite direction.

F = k * x

200N = 5000 N/m * d

200 / 5000 = d

d = 0.04 meters.

Part B

10.2 kg must be converted to a force as experienced here on earth.

F = m * g

g = 9.81

m = 10.2

F = 10.2 * 9.81

F = 100.06 N

F = k * d

100.06 = 5000 * d

d = 100.06 / 5000

d = 0.02 meters.

State how you agree or disagree with the following statement. A good circuit cannot have internal resistance.​
Rashid [163]

Answer: I do

Explanation:

Resistance opposes current thereby reducing the amount of current that flows through a circuit. In other words, it leads to a loss of electrical energy.

Ideally speaking, a good circuit should have no internal resistance as this would lead to more energy having to be supplied to overcome that resistance. External resistance however, is not a bad thing. For instance, oxygen being removed from lightbulbs.

Determine the power that needs to besupplied by the fanifthe desired velocity is 0.05 m3/s and the cross-sectional area is 20 cm
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

A fan with an energy efficiency of 30 % would need 62.5 watts to bring a desired volume flow of 0.05 cubic meters per second through a cross-sectional area of 20 square centimeters.

Explanation:

Complete statement is: <em>Determine the power that needs to besupplied by the fan if the desired velocity is 0.05 cubic meters per second and the cross-sectional area is 20 square centimeters.</em>

From Thermodynamics and Fluid Mechanics we know that fans are devices that work at steady state which accelerate gases (i.e. air) with no changes in pressure. In this case, mechanical rotation energy is transformed into kinetic energy. If we include losses due to mechanical friction, the Principle of Energy Conservation presents the following equation:

\eta\cdot \dot W = \dot K

\dot W = \frac{\dot K}{\eta} (Eq. 1)

Where:

\eta - Efficiency of fan, dimensionless.

\dot W - Electric power supplied fan, measured in watts.

\dot K - Rate of change of kinetic energy of air in time, measured in watts.

From definition of kinetic energy, the equation above is now expanded:

\dot W = \frac{\rho_{a}\cdot \dot V}{2\cdot \eta}\cdot \left(\frac{\dot V}{A_{s}} \right)^{2} (Eq. 2)

Where:

\rho_{a} - Density of air, measured in kilograms per cubic meter.

\dot V - Volume flow, measured in cubic meters per second.

A_{s} - Cross-sectional area of fan, measured in square meters.

If we know that \rho_{a} = 1.20\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}}, \dot V = 0.05\,\frac{m^{3}}{s}, \eta = 0.3 and A_{s} = 20\times 10^{-4}\,m^{2}, the power needed to be supplied by the fan is:

\dot K = \left[\frac{\left(1.20\,\frac{kg}{m^{3}} \right)\cdot \left(0.05\,\frac{m^{3}}{s} \right)}{2\cdot (0.3)} \right]\cdot \left(\frac{0.05\,\frac{m^{3}}{s} }{20\times 10^{-4}\,m^{2}} \right)^{2}

\dot K = 62.5\,W

A fan with an energy efficiency of 30 % would need 62.5 watts to bring a desired volume flow of 0.05 cubic meters per second through a cross-sectional area of 20 square centimeters.

A man weighs 1190 n on earth. what would he weigh on jupiter, where the free-fall acceleration is 25.9 m/s 2 ? the acceleration
Elden [556K]
The answer would be 3,145N. Using W=mg solve for the mass of the man on earth. Once you have the mass you can multiply it by the gravity of Jupiter giving you his weight in Newton’s on Jupiter.

Which category of galaxy does not have a distinctive shape?
mylen [45]
The category of galaxy which does not have a distinctive shape is D. an irregular galaxy.
A spiral galaxy has a spiral shape, an elliptical galaxy has an elliptical shape, and a barred-spiral galaxy has a barred-spiral shape. The only galaxy type which does not have a constant shape is an irregular galaxy.
