Answer: W = 0.3853 J, e = 0.052 m

Explanation: Given that,

K =285.0N/M , L = 0.230m , F = 15N , e = ?

F = Ke

15 = 285 × e

e = 15÷ 285

e =0.052 m

e + L = 0.052 + 0.230

= 0.282m ( spring new length )

Work needed to stretch the spring

W = 1/2ke2

W = 1/2 × 285 x 0.052 × 0.052

W = 0.3853 J

PLEASE HELP 15 POINTSexplain properties and importance of light and how it separates into colors
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

It is not a property of light. It is your eyes and brain.

Specifically, the three kinds of cone cells in our eye that are sensitive to different ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum. The fact that there are three means that color is three dimensional, and is the reason the pure colors form a circle even though the spectrum of wavelengths is linear.

Visible light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum; light waves of different frequencies and wavelengths are distinguished as colors by the human eye. A prism can separate the colors of white light (dispersion) because different frequencies of light have different refractive indices for a given material.

Two forces, one four times as large as the other, pull in the same direction on a 10kg mass and impart to it an acceleration of
notsponge [240]

Answer:

The acceleration of the mass is 2 meters per square second.

Explanation:

By Newton's second law, we know that force (F), measured in newtons, is the product of mass (m), measured in kilograms, and net acceleration (a), measured in meters per square second. That is:

F = m\cdot a (1)

The initial force applied in the mass is:

F = (10\,kg)\cdot \left(2.5\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)

F = 25\,N

In addition, we know that force is directly proportional to acceleration. If the smaller force is removed, then the initial force is reduced to \frac{4}{5} of the initial force. The acceleration of the mass is:

\frac{25\,N}{20\,N} = \frac{2.5\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} }{a}

a = 2\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}

The acceleration of the mass is 2 meters per square second.
