3 0

Answer: The spring constant of the trampoline is 87500N/m

Explanation:

From the formula for elastic potential energy,

Work done on the spring = 1/2 Ke²

Work done = Potential energy of the body = mass(kg) * g * height(meters)

mgh = 1/2 Ke²,

where m = 70Kg, g = 10 m/s², h = 10m, K = spring constant, e = extension or compression = 0.4m

70 * 10 * 10 = 1/2 K * (0.4)²

7000 = 0.08 * K

K = 87500N/m

The spring constant of the trampoline is 87500N/m

Optical tweezers use light from a laser to move single atoms and molecules around. Suppose the intensity of light from the tweez
katrin [286]

Answer:

a= 4.4×10 m/s^2

Explanation:

pressure P  = E/c

Where, E = 100 W/m^2 intensity of light

c= speed of light  = 3×10^8 m/s

P = 1000/ 3×10^8

P = 3.33×10^(-6) Pa

Force F = P×A

  • P is the pressure and c= speed of light

F = 3.33×10^{-6}×6.65×10(-29)

= 2.22×10^{-6}

acceleration a  = F/m = 2.22×10^{-6}/ 5.10×10^{-27}

a= 4.4×10 m/s^2

A Balloon is filled with water inside, when it is hanged over a burning fire the balloon filled with water doesn't brust why??​
GaryK [48]

Answer:

The water filled balloon does not burst because the rubber obviously does not reach a temperature sufficient for it to melt or burn. The rubber is stretched thin so that heat is quickly transferred into the balloon. With air inside the balloon, this heat is not readily dissipated away from the spot touching the flame.

An object is moving but we don't know its mass or velocity. A force of 20 newtons to the right
jok3333 [9.3K]

The impulse is (force) x (time) = (20 N) x (20 sec) = 400 N-sec

When we grind through the units, we find that the [newton-second]
is exactly the same as the [kilogram-meter/sec] unit-wise, and once
we know that, it doesn't surprise us to learn that impulse is equivalent
to a change in momentum (mass x speed ... also kg-m/s).

So this impulse exerted on the moving object adds 400 kg-m/s of
linear momentum to its motion, directed to the right.  That may or
may not be the total change in its momentum during that 20-sec,
because our 20-N may not be the only force acting on it.
