The force = 0.3 * 9.8 = 2.94
x = 0.13

k = 2.94/0.13
k = 22.6 N/m

The graph represents the force applied on an 3.00kg crate while it moved 5.0m. A. How much total work is done on the crate? B. I
jeka57 [31]

a. We can calculate the amount of work by calculating the area under the graph.

first area (rectangular): 2.5 x 6 = 15

second area(trapezoid): 1/2 x (6+10) x 2.5 =20

total work done: 35 J

b. the force was first applied = 6 N

F = m.a

a = 6 : 3 = 2 m/s²

vf²=vi²+2as

vf²=6²+2.2.5

vf²=56

vf=7.5 m/s

An elevator starts from rest with a constant upward acceleration and moves 1 m in the first 1.7 s. A passenger in the elevator i
avanturin [10]

Answer: Tension = 53.6N

Explanation:

Given that

Height h = 1 m

Time t = 1.7 s.

Mass m = 5.1 kg 

From the equation of the motion we can get the acceleration of the elevator:

h = X0+ V0t + at2/2;

Th elevator starts from rest with a constant upward acceleration. Initial velocity Vo = 0, also Xo = 0; thus

a = 2h/t2 = 2 × 1/1.7^2

a = 0.69 m/s2.

Then we can find the tension in the cord by using the formula

T = mg + ma

= 5.1 (9.8 + 0.69)

= 5.1 × 10.5

= 53.6N

(20 points) Pressure is a measure of force per unit area or P=F/A. A student is checking the amount of pressure their car exerts
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

35.2 ps

Explanation:

Hello!

A US short ton is equal to 2 000 pounds, therefore:

2.25 tons = 4500 pounds

Now lets convert the area of each tire footprint:

1 cm = 0.393701 in

12.5 cm = 4.92126 in

16.5 cm = 6.49607 in

Therefore, the area of the footprint is:   31.9688 in^2

Then, the pressure exerted by the car is given by the weigth devided by the total area, that is 4 times the area of the footprint :

4500 /(4 * 31.9688)  psi = 35.1906 psi

Rounding to the first tenth

35.2 psi
