Answer:
Approximately
(assuming that
.)
Explanation:
Let
denote the force that this spring exerts on the object. Let
denote the displacement of this spring from the equilibrium position.
By Hooke's Law, the spring constant
of this spring would ensure that
.
Note that the mass of the object attached to this spring is
. Thus, the weight of this object would be
.
Assuming that this object is not moving, the spring would need to exert an upward force of the same magnitude on the object. Thus,
.
The spring in this question was stretched downward from its equilibrium by:
.
(Note that
is negative since this displacement points downwards.)
Rearrange Hooke's Law to find
in terms of
and
:
.
Answer:
a) h = 8.02 10³ m b) yes
Explanation:
a) The pressure in a fluid is given by
P = ρ g h
The pressure in this case is the atmospheric pressure, 1.013 105 Pa, let's clear the height (h)
h = P / ρ g
h = 1.013 10⁵ / (1.29 9.8)
h = 8.02 10³ m
b) The height of Mount Everest is 8848 m
It is above this height, according to this model there would be no air to breathe
Answer:
Acceleration is the change in velocity divided by time
Explanation:
This is the correct answer because distance divided by time is the position. Speed multiplied by time is the distance. And acceleration is not just velocity, but the change in velocity over time.
According to the kinetic molecular theory, the pressure of a gas in a container will increase if the number of collisions with the container wall increases.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Keeping the volume of the vessel constant, if we increase the amount of gas in it; the pressure will increase.
This is because when the number of gas particles increases in that limited volume, they hit the walls of the container with more energy and hence, the overall pressure of the gas increases.
If we decrease the amount of gas in the vessel or increase the volume for the same amount of gas, the pressure decreases. As the pressure inside the vessel depends upon the gas supplied in the container.
The correct answer to the question is : 1) Converting energy and 2) Within about twenty years, natural gas forms.
EXPLANATION:
In coal fired power plants, the water is heated by burning coals. The heat produced in this process will convert water into steam. The steam is allowed to rotate the turbine. The turbine is attached to a generator which converts the kinetic energy of the steam into electric energy due to electromagnetic induction.
Hence, turbine helps in converting energy.
As per the second question, Walt listed the steps that occur during the formation of natural gas.
The natural gas is produced due to natural phenomenon. For this, millions of years are passed. So, it is a long range process in which the fossil of animals and planets buried beneath the surface are converted into natural gas under high pressure.
Hence, the mistake of Walt is that the natural gas is produced withing twenty years.
