BARSIC [14]3 years ago
7 0
Based on Hooke's law, the force a spring exerts is negative based on the elongation length. Therefore, since a 2.00 kilogram weight exerts 20 Newtons (gravitation acceleration constant = 10), than the spring must pull back with -20 Newtons. This means that -20 = -kx, where k = spring constant and x = elongation length. k = 150, so that means that x = 20/150, or 2/15 meters.

The average speed during any time interval is equal to the total distance of travel divided by the total time. Let d represent t
Tanya [424]

Answer:

Average speed = 3.63 m/s

Explanation:

The average speed during any time interval is equal to the total distance travelled divided by the total time.

That is,

Average speed = distance/ time

Let d represent the distance between A and B.

Let t1 be the time for which she has the higher speed of 5.15 m/s. Therefore,

5.15 = d/t1.

Make d the subject of formula

d = 5.15t1

Let t2 represent the longer time for the return trip at 2.80 m/s . That is,

2.80 = d/t2.

Then the times are t1 = d/5.15 5 and

t2 = d/2.80.

The average speed vavg is given by the following equation.

avg speed = Total distance/Total time

Avg speed = d + d/t1 + t2

Where

Total distance = 2d

Total time = t1 + t2

Total time = d/5.15 + d/2.80

Total time = (2.8d + 5.15d)/14.42

Total time = 7.95d/14.42

Total time = 0.55d

Substitute total distance and time into the formula above.

Avg speed = 2d / 0.55d

Avg Speed = 3.63 m/s

What law states force is dependent on the mass and acceleration of an object
UNO [17]

Answer:

Newton's second law of motion

Explanation:

Newton's second law of motion can be stated  

The acceleration of an object as produced by a net force is directly proportional to the magnitude of the net force, in the same direction as the net force, and inversely proportional to the mass of the object.

in another form,

Force = mass * acceleration

Two capacitors have the same size of plates and the same distance 4 mm between the plates The potentials of the two plates in ca
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

    E = -4000 N / C

Explanation:

The potential and electric field are related

         V = - E s

          E = - V / s

we reduce the magnitudes to the SI system

          s = 4 mm (1 m / 1000 mm) = 0.004 m

we calculate

          E = - 16 /0.004

          E = -4000 N / C
