A spring is 6.0cm long when it is not stretched, and 10cm long when a 7.0N force is applied. What force is needed to make it 20c

Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

Approximately $25\; {\rm N}$ (assuming that this spring is ideal.)

Explanation:

The displacement of a spring is the new length of the spring relative to the original length.

For example:

When the $6.0\; {\rm cm}$ -spring in this question is stretched to $10\; {\rm cm}$ , the displacement is $x = (10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm})$ .
Likewise, if this spring is stretched to $20\; {\rm cm}$ , the displacement would be $(20\; {\rm cm} - 6\; {\rm cm})$ .

If this spring is ideal, the force on the spring would be proportional to the displacement of the spring. In other words, if a force of $F_{\text{a}}$ displaces this spring by $x_{\text{a}}$ , while a force of $F_{\text{b}}$ displaces this spring by $x_{\text{b}}$ , then:

$\displaystyle \frac{F_{\text{a}}}{x_{\text{a}}} = \frac{F_{\text{b}}}{x_{\text{b}}}$ .

In this question, it is given that a force of $F_{\text{a}} = 7.0 \; {\rm N}$ would stretch this spring by $x_{\text{a}} = (10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm})$ . Thus, the force $F_{\text{b}}$ required to stretch this spring by $x_{\text{a}} = (20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm})$ would satisfy:

$\displaystyle \frac{7.0\; {\rm N}}{10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}}= \frac{F_{\text{b}}}{20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}}$ .

Rearrange and solve for $F_{\text{b}}$ :

$\begin{aligned} F_{\text{b}} &= \frac{7.0\; {\rm N}}{10\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}} \, (20\; {\rm cm} - 6.0\; {\rm cm}) \\ &\approx 25\; {\rm N}\end{aligned}$ .

Energy slowly leaks outward through the diffusion of photons that repeatedly bounce off ions and electrons

stepan [7]

Energy slowly leaks outward through the radiative diffusion of photons that repeatedly bounce off ions and electrons.

<h3>What is radiative diffusion?</h3>

A radiation zone is a layer of a star's core where energy is mostly carried toward the outside by radiative diffusion and thermal conduction rather than convection.

As photons, energy passes through the radiation zone as electromagnetic radiation.

The radiative diffusion of photons that repeatedly bounce off ions and electrons progressively drains energy outward.

Hence,radiative diffusion is correct answer.
