You have a lightweight spring whose unstretched length is 4.0 cm. First, you attach one end of the spring to the ceiling and han

g a 1.8 g mass from it. This stretches the spring to a length of 5.1 cm . You then attach two small plastic beads to the opposite ends of the spring, lay the spring on a frictionless table, and give each plastic bead the same charge. This stretches the spring to a length of 4.3 cm .
Requried:
What is the magnitude of the charge (in nC) on each bead?

Answer:

2.2nC

Explanation:

Call the amount by which the spring’s unstretched length L,

the amount it stretches while hanging x1

and the amount it stretches while on the table x2.

Combining Hooke’s law with Newton’s second law, given that the stretched spring is not accelerating,

we have mg−kx1 =0, or k = mg /x1 , where k is the spring constant. On the other hand,

applying Coulomb’s law to the second part tells us ke q2/ (L+x2)2 − kx2 = 0 or q2 = kx2(L+x2)2/ke,

where ke is the Coulomb constant. Combining these,

we get q = √(mgx2(L+x2)²/x1ke =2.2nC

Which example is a body fossil? a) dino bones b) shrimp burrow c)dino footprint d)an ornithopod track
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The hard structure like dino bones, teeth and shells are the examples of body fossils.

Option: A

<u>Explanation: </u>

The body fossils are common type of fossils found in the world. <em>These body fossils are formed by the remains of the ‘dead animals and plants’.</em> The body fossils are <em>hard parts of the dino teeth, bones, shells, woody trunks, branches, and stems.</em> The body fossils are formed in different ways and they are the remains of <em>the body parts of ancient animals, plants and other life forms.</em>

<em>They are rarely found in connected nature and are like large vertebrates like dinosaur bones, skulls and teeth’s. </em> The body fossils are also formed in different ways they are formed like a plants or animals dies in a watery environment and they can be buried in mud or silt they cannot decompose.

They build the top and hardens into the rocks at over time sedimentation.  Two types of tissues are decomposed, they are soft and hard tissues.in the decomposition of there leaving hard bones, shells and teeth’s are behind and soft tissues are quickly decomposes.

Can a vector have a component greater than its magnitude
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

NO

Explanation:

The components of a vector can not have a magnitude greater than the vector itself.The magnitude of a component is always lesser than vector because the magnitude is a product of the vector and cos Ф where the value of cos Ф , x,  is -1<x<1. Additionally, applying the Pythagorean relationship, you expect the sum of squares of the components to equal the square of the magnitude of the vectors.However, there is a situation where a component of a vector has a magnitude which equals the magnitude of the vector.

A wooden block contains some nails so that its density is exactly equal to that of water. If it is placed in a tank of water and
belka [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is:

a) remain where it is released

Explanation:

The concept of density seeks to measure the weight of an object in relation to its size. It is the measure of how packed together the particles of that object are. An object placed in a liquid displaces a certain volume of the liquid, based on the relative density of the object and the liquid.

If an object is less dense than a liquid in which it is placed, it displaces a smaller volume of the liquid than its volume, hence only some part of the object will be seen to be under the liquid, the other part will float.

If an object is denser than the liquid in which it is placed, it displaces a larger volume of the liquid than its own volume, making the object to sink and is submerged, sometimes to the bottom of the liquid, but mostly below the point at which it was released.

Finally, if the density of an object and the liquid into which it is submerged is the same. the object's mass per unit volume is the same as the liquid's mass per unit volume, hence the weight and force created due to density will balance and cancel each other out hence making the object to remain where it was submerged.
