Answer:

43.56 N/m

Explanation:

From Hook's Law,

The Energy stored in a spring is given as

E = 1/2ke².......................... Equation 1

Where E = Energy stored in the spring, k = spring constant of the spring, e =. extension

make k the subject of the equation

k = 2E/e²....................... Equation 2

Given: E = 49 J, e = 2.9-1.4 = 1.5 m.

Substitute into equation 2

k = 2(49)/1.5²

k = 98/2.25

k = 43.56 N/m.

Hence the spring constant of the spring = 43.56 N/m

Answer:

44 N/m

Explanation:

The extension, e, of the spring = 2.9 m - 1.4 m = 1.5 m

The work needed to stretch a spring by <em>e</em> is given by

W = \frac{1}{2} ke^2

where <em>k</em> is spring constant.

k = \dfrac{2W}{e^2}

Using the appropriate values,

k = \dfrac{2\times 49\text{ J}}{1.5^2\text{ m}^2} = 43.55\ldots\text{ N/m} \approx 44\text{ N/m}

A spectral line from a star is observed to have a wavelength of 656.5 nm. The rest wavelength of this line is 656.8 nm. (a) What
nignag [31]

Answer:

speed of star is  1.37 × 10^{5} m/s

it is approaching to earth because wavelength of star is decreasing than rest

if emit same wavelength it does not move anywhere

it will remain steady condition with respect earth

Explanation:

given data

wavelength = 656.5 nm

rest wavelength = 656.8 nm

to find out

the speed of the star , is it approaching

solution

we know here equation that is

wavelength shift / wavelength at rest  = velocity of source / speed of light

so put all value and find

velocity of source = 3 × 10^{-9} × 3 × 10^{8} / 656.8 × 10^{-9}

velocity of source star = 1.37 × 10^{5} m/s

and

it is approaching to earth because wavelength of star is decreasing than rest

and

if emit same wavelength it does not move anywhere

it will remain steady condition with respect earth

Which statement best describes why an island's food web could be considered a closed system?
garik1379 [7]
I would say Option B) because Option C) is wrong since matter cannot be created. A closed system does not exchange matter so it's not Option D). Since an island is an isolated area, Option A) is wrong.

Two coconuts fall freely from rest at the same time, one from a tree twice as high as the other. If the coconut from the shorter
valentinak56 [21]

Wee can use here kinematics

as we know that

y = v*t + \frac{1}{2} at^2

for shorter tree we know that

y = 0 + \frac{1}{2}*9.8 * 2^2

y = 19.6 meter

now since we know that other tree is twice high

So height of other tree is y = 39.2 m

now again by above equation

y = v*t + \frac{1}{2} at^2

39.2 = 0 + \frac{1}{2}*9.8 * t^2

t = 2.83 s

so the time taken is 2.83 s
