According to the Hooke’s law formula, the force is proportional to the displacement of the spring.

Answer: Option C

<u>Explanation:</u>

Hooke's law is related to the force of the spring which is directly related to the distance when the spring is stretched upon. The deformation of the spring is directly related to the displacement it experiences.

Therefore Option A, B, and D are irrelevant. For example : consider the spring which is found in a pen and the distance it travels depends upon the force given by the user at the tip which makes spring to deform.

What is the magnitude of the force needed to keep a 60 newton rubber block moving across level,dry asphalt in a straight line at

pantera1 [17]

let Coefficients of Friction of Rubber on asphalt (dry) =0.7

F= Coefficients of Friction * normal force = 0.7 * 60 =42 N

so the net force of the rubber is zero, meaning it will travel at a constant speed.

When the rubber is travel at 2m/s, 42N is required to keep moving at constant speed

At standard temperature and pressure, carbon dioxide has a density of 1.98 kg/m3. What volume does 1.70 kg of carbon dioxide occ

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

<h2>volume= 0.85m^3</h2>

Explanation:

<em>The density of a substance is defined as the mass per unit volume of the substance, the unit is in kg/m^3 and it is represented by the greek letter rho</em>

Step one:

given data

we are told that the density of Co2= 1.98 kg/m3

and the mass of Co2 is= 1.70 kg

we know the relation between mass, volume and density is

$density=mass/volume$

make volume subject of formula we have

$volume=mass/density$

substitute we have

$volume=1.7/1.98\\\\volume= 0.85m^3$

A cord is used to vertically lower an initially stationary block of mass M = 3.6 kg at a constant downward acceleration of g/7.

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

(a) $W_c=127.008 J$

(b) $W_g=148.176 J$

(c) K.E. = 21.168 J

(d) $v=3.4293m.s^{-1}$

Explanation:

Given:

mass of a block, M = 3.6 kg

initial velocity of the block, $u=0 m.s^{-1}$

constant downward acceleration, $a_d= \frac{g}{7}$

$\Rightarrow$ That a constant upward acceleration of $\frac{6g}{7}$ is applied in the presence of gravity.

∴ $a=- \frac{6g}{7}$

height through which the block falls, d = 4.2 m

(a)

Force by the cord on the block,

$F_c= M\times a$

$F_c=3.6\times (-6)\times\frac{9.8}{7}$

$F_c=-30.24 N$

∴Work by the cord on the block,

$W_c= F_c\times d$

$W_c= -30.24\times 4.2$

We take -ve sign because the direction of force and the displacement are opposite to each other.

$W_c=-127.008 J$

(b)

Force on the block due to gravity:

$F_g= M.g$

∵the gravity is naturally a constant and we cannot change it

$F_g=3.6\times 9.8$

$F_g=35.28 N$

∴Work by the gravity on the block,

$W_g=F_g\times d$

$W_g=35.28\times 4.2$

$W_g=148.176 J$

(c)

Kinetic energy of the block will be equal to the net work done i.e. sum of the two works.

mathematically:

$K.E.= W_g+W_c$

$K.E.=148.176-127.008$

K.E. = 21.168 J

(d)

From the equation of motion:

$v^2=u^2+2a_d\times d$

putting the respective values:

$v=\sqrt{0^2+2\times \frac{9.8}{7}\times 4.2 }$

$v=3.4293m.s^{-1}$ is the speed when the block has fallen 4.2 meters.

A tightrope walker more easily balances on a tightwire if his pole

cestrela7 [59]

B) droops.

Why?
To maintain balance, you do not need something short so you're balanced well... You need something long and droopy to maintain balance. The pole should be held by your waist and it should be light.

Hope this helps!~
