The Potential energy stored in the system is 1 J

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given-

Mass, m = 4 kg

Spring constant, k = 800 N/m

Distance, x = 5cm = 0.05m

Potential energy, U = ?

We know,

Change in potential energy is equal to the work done.

So,

U = \frac{1}{2} k (x)^2\\\\

By plugging in the values we get,

U = \frac{1}{2} * 800 * (0.05)^2\\ \\U = 400 * 0.0025\\\\U = 1J\\

Therefore, Potential energy stored in the system is 1 J

You are given a copper bar of dimensions 3 cm × 5 cm × 8 cm and asked to attach leads to it in order to make a resistor. (a) If
dem82 [27]

Answer:

A) If you want to achieve the SMALLEST possible resistance, you should attach the leads to the opposite faces that measure b) 5 cm by 8 cm.

B) If you want to achieve the LARGEST possible resistance, you should attach the leads to the opposite faces that measure a) 3 cm × 5 cm

Explanation:

Resistivity is directly proportional to lenght and inversely properly to cross sectional area.

For the first case, 5 cm by 8 cm gives the largest area and leave 3 cm as the lenght. The resistivity of the metal will be smallest in these dimensions.

For the second case, 3 cm by 5 cm gives the smallest area, leaving 8 cm as the lenght. This is the maximum arrangement that can give the largest resistance possible.

Read through the and calculate the predicted change in kinetic energy of the oblect compared to 50 kg ball traveling at 10 m/s .
Sliva [168]

Answer:

A 50 kg ball traveling at 20 m/s would have 4 times more kinetic energy.

A 50 kg ball traveling at 5 m/s would have 4 times less kinetic energy.

A 50 kg person falling at 10 m/s would have the same kinetic energy.

Explanation:

hope this helps:)

Which is a charcharacteristic of all ions?
ankoles [38]

An ion is created by the transfer of electrons. The metals give away the elections and become positively charged. The non - metals take on electrons.

Balance.

So an ion is any atom that either gives away or takes on electrons.

When blue light shines into a prism what happens?
9966 [12]

Answer:

Blue light has the shortest wavelength amongst all the colours that combine to make white light. This means the blue light diffracts (bends) the most out of all of them. There will be no dispersion of colours because ideally, the blue light must consist of only one frequency.
