In Hooke’s law, what does the x represent?

Answer:   C

X = Displacement of the spring

Hooke's law: It states that the applied force F is proportional to the  displacement of spring .

            F ∝ x

            Where, x = displacement of spring in meters

                         F = force, measured in Newtons

In another words The force F is equal to the constant K times the disparagement.

            F = k.x

            Where k is constant and it depends on elastic material.

            Spring has restorative force.  

If the spring moves in opposite direction then,

           F = - k.x

A negative sign indicates that the spring resists and force is to the left. The compression of the spring is greater than the restoring force.  

   Example: A mass 'm' stretches a spring at a displacement x.

What is cartilage?
Sphinxa [80]

"The connective tissue that's found between bones."

An example would be between the vertabrae in the spine.

Like the other (inappropriate) answer said, a ligament is what attches muscles and bones.

Also, the tissue inside of bones is bone marrow.

If you know that, you can take out those two options (Option 1 and 3)

A 90 kg astronaut Travis is stranded in space at a point 12 m from his spaceship. In order to get back to his ship, Travis throw
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

This is a recoil problem, which is just another application of the Law of Momentum Conservation. The equation for us is:

[m_av_a+m_ev_e]_b=[m_av_a+m_ev_e]_a which, in words, is

The momentum of the astronaut plus the momentum of the piece of equipment before the equipment is thrown has to be equal to the momentum of all that same stuff after the equipment is thrown. Filling in:

[(90.0)(0)+(.50)(0)]_b=[(90.0)(v)+(.50)(-4.0)]_a

Obviously, on the left side of the equation, nothing is moving so the whole left side equals 0. Doing the math on the right and paying specific attention to the sig fig's here (notice, I added a 0 after the 4 in the velocity value so our sig fig's are 2 instead of just 1. 1 is useless in most applications).

0 = 90.0v - 2.0 and

2.0 = 90.0v so

v = .022 m/s This is the rate at which he is moving TOWARDS the ship (negative was moving away from the ship, as indicated by the - in the problem). Now we can use the d = rt equation to find out how long this process will take him if he wants to reach his ship before he dies.

12 = .022t and

t = 550 seconds, which is the same thing as 9.2 minutes
