A 20 cm long spring is attached to a wall. The spring stretches to a length of 22 cm when you pull on it with a force of 100 n.

What is the spring constant

Answer:

5000 N/m

Explanation:

Hooke's law for the spring is

F = k \Delta x

where here we have

F = 100 N is the force applied to the spring

k is the spring constant

\Delta x = 22 cm - 20 cm = 2 cm = 0.02 m is the stretching of the spring with respect to its equilibrium position

Solving the equation for k, we find the spring constant:

k=\frac{F}{\Delta x}=\frac{100 N}{0.02 m}=5000 N/m

A horizontal disk rotates about a vertical axis through its center. Point P is midway between the center and the rim of the disk
rjkz [21]

<u>If the disk turns with constant angular velocity, the following statements about it are true </u>

  • The linear acceleration of Q is twice as great as the linear acceleration of P
  • is moving twice Q as fast as P.

Answer: Options D and E

<u>Explanation: </u>

Let us consider that R is the radius of the circular disc. So as Q is on the rim, so the distance of Q from the centre of the disc is R and as P is the midpoint between centre and rim of the disk, so the distance of P from the centre is R/2.

As we know that the angular velocity of the circular disk will be equal to the ratio of distance covered by that point to the time taken. So the angular velocity at point Q will be

      \text { Angular velocity at point } Q=\frac{\text { Distance covered by point } Q}{\text { Time }}=\frac{2 \pi R}{T}=v

As R is the distance of point Q from the centre of the disc.

Similarly ,

\text { Angular velocity at point } P=\frac{\text { Distance covered by point } P}{\text { Time }}=\frac{2 \pi\left(\frac{\mathrm{R}}{2}\right)}{T}=\frac{\pi R}{T}=v^{\prime}

So if we equate v with v’ we obtain that

                              v=2 v^{\prime}

Therefore, the point Q will be moving twice as fast as P. As the velocity of Q is more than O, the linear acceleration of point Q will also be twice as great as the linear acceleration of P.

This is because acceleration is directly proportional to the rate of change in velocity. So if velocity increases in the factor of 2, the acceleration of point Q will also increase twice with respect to point P.

A 1.2 g pebble is stuck in a tread of a 0.76 m diameter automobile tire, held in place by static friction that can be at most 3.
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

v=33.764m/s

Explanation:

Given data

Mass m=1.2 g=0.0012 kg

diameter d=0.76 m

Friction Force F=3.6 N

To find

Velocity v

Solution

From the Centripetal force we know that

F_{c}=\frac{mv^{2} }{r}

Where m is mass

v is velocity

r is radius

Substitute the given values to find velocity v

So

F_{c}=\frac{mv^{2} }{r}\\v^{2}=\frac{F_{c}(r)}{m}\\ v=\sqrt{\frac{F_{c}(r)}{m}}\\ v=\sqrt{\frac{F_{c}(diameter/2)}{m}}\\v=\sqrt{\frac{(3.6N)(0.76/2)m}{(0.0012kg)}}\\v=33.764m/s

How does the size of oxygens nucleus affect the distribution
son4ous [18]

Answer:

The protons which are present are positively charged that attracts and pulls the electrons closer to the water molecule. Thus, the water molecule's negative charge is distributed all over the atom of oxygen, producing a substantial negative charge.

Explanation:

The nucleus of the oxygen atom is made up of 8 neutrons and 8 protons. The protons which are present are positively charged that attracts and pulls the electrons closer to the water molecule.

Thus, the water molecule's negative charge is distributed all over the atom of oxygen, producing a substantial negative charge. While, as electrons have drifted away from water molecules, the atom of hydrogen are left with just a partially positive charge.
