light spring of force constant k = 158 N/m rests vertically on the bottom of a large beaker of water (Figure a). A 4.36-kg block

of wood (density = 650 kg/m3) is connected to the spring, and the block-spring system is allowed to come to static equilibrium (Figure b). What is the elongation ΔL of the spring?

Answer:

0.146 m

Explanation:

f = -KΔL according to Hooke's law

volume of water displaced = mass / density of block since a body will displace equal volume of its own

weight of water displaced = mass of water × acceleration due to gravity

and mass of water = volume of water / density of water

weight of water displaced = Vw × dw × g = mg (dw / dblock)

net force = mg - mg (dw / dblock) = 42.728  - 65.74 = -23.00

it will be balanced by a restoring force of 23 N

ΔL = F / k = 23 / 158 = 0.146 m

Ms. Mary Mack walked around her block from her house for 200 meters. She arrived back at her house in 15 minutes. What was her d
inysia [295]

Answer:

d = 0 [m]

Explanation:

Displacement is understood as the length and direction that a body travels to move from an initial point to an endpoint.

This displacement is represented with a vector or straight line that indicates the distance of the displacement and its length.

This displacement in an easier way to understand. It is the distance between the start point and the endpoint of the journey. Since the second point is equal to the first point, since Mary returns to the same place, there is no difference between the displacement.

Therefore the displacement is zero.

When you step inside a warm ski lodge on a cold day, you find your glasses fog. why does this occur?
marin [14]
Answer: Condensation of moisture in the air onto the glasses.

Explanation:
When you come from a cold environment into a warm ski lodge, the glasses are at a much lower temperature than that of the lodge.
Because the air in the room contains moisture (water vapor), it condenses on a surface whose temperature is lower than the dew point of the room.

1. How can you explain the sound has energy?<br><br><br>​
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Sound energy is produced when an object vibrates. The sound vibrations cause waves of pressure that travel through a medium, such as air, water, wood or metal. Sound energy is a form of mechanical energy.

A 12kg cheetah accelerates 24 m/s". What is the force the cheetah needed to run?
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

288N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Cheetah = 12kg

Acceleration  = 24m/s²

Unknown:

Force needed by the cheetah to run  = ?

Solution:

The force needed by the Cheetah to run is the net force.

According to Newton's law;

    Force  = mass x acceleration

Insert the given parameters and solve;

   Force  = 12 x 24  = 288N
