Which form of energy is involved in weighing fruit on a spring scale?

Physics

DanielleElmas [232]3 years ago

Answer:

d. gravitational potential energy and elastic potential energy

Explanation:

when fruits are weighed on the weighing scale using spring balance then the spring is stretched due to weight of the fruits

So here if the spring comes to rest just by stretching the spring by some amount of "x"

So here in that case we can say that the object will go down by same amount that is the amount of spring stretch

Now the gravitational potential energy of the spring will decrease as the height decreases and the same amount of spring potential energy will increase in that case.

So here we can say

mgx = \frac{1}{2}kx^2

loss in the gravitational potential energy = gain in the spring potential energy

There are two types of energies that are taking place in the fruit is weighed in a spring scale. These are the gravitational potential energy and the elastic potential energy. The gravitational potential energy could be primarily attributed to the elevation of the fruit with respect to the ground.

How does drag affect the cost of owning a car?
vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

You’ve probably noticed over the years that car design has become more streamlined. In other words, most consumer vehicles don’t look very boxy anymore. Some of this is due to aesthetics, but much of it is meant to decrease a vehicle’s drag coefficient. A cube has a high drag coefficient, whereas a teardrop has a low one.

By decreasing the drag coefficient, car makers are helping vehicles “slip” through air more easily. That reduces the amount of fuel needed to move the vehicle, and the difference shows up in your wallet and in the environment.

1)the magnetic field is strongest near_________of a bar magnet.
horrorfan [7]
1. Is A. at the poles because thats where the magnetic field is going out then coming back into the earth to produce the magnetic field.
2. Again its A. because the compass needle is attracted to " north " which is magnetic south. It does this because opposites attract.
3. This one would be B. Because if the magnets were being repelled the magnetic field lines would look like there was a line that the field hit and bounced off of it.
4. This answer is A. the magnetite helps them migrate so they know which way is north and which way is south.
5. This answer is A. Because without the domains there wouldn't be poles on the magnetic object. <span />
