A student carried out an experiment adding different weights to a spring and recording the results. Look at the table of results

MAXImum [283]

Answer:

0.25 m.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the spring constant of the spring.

From the diagram, we shall used any of the weight with the corresponding extention to determine the spring constant. This is illustrated below:

Force (F) = 0.1 N

Extention (e) = 0.125 m

Spring constant (K) =?

F = Ke

0.1 = K x 0.125

Divide both side by 0.125

K = 0.1/0.125

K = 0.8 N/m

Therefore, the force constant, K of spring is 0.8 N/m

Now, we can obtain the number in gap 1 in the diagram above as follow:

Force (F) = 0.2 N

Spring constant (K) = 0.8 N/m

Extention (e) =..?

F = Ke

0.2 = 0.8 x e

Divide both side by 0.8

e = 0.2/0.8

e = 0.25 m

Therefore, the number that will complete gap 1is 0.25 m.

Which one of the following types of electromagnetic wave travels through space the fastest?

Setler [38]

Answer:

As a result, light travels fastest in empty space, and travels slowest in solids. In glass, for example, light travels about 197,000 km/s.

A soccer player takes a corner kick, lofting a stationary ball 30.0° above the horizon at 18.0 m/s. If the soccer ball has a mas

Radda [10]

Answer:

change in momentum, $\Delta p=7.65 \,kg.m.s^{-1}$

$\Delta p_x= 6.6251 \,kg.m.s^{-1}$

$\Delta p_y= 3.825 \,kg.m.s^{-1}$

Average Force, $F=144.3396\,N$

$F_x=125.0018\,N$

$F_y=72.1698\,N$

Explanation:

Given:

angle of kicking from the horizon, $\theta= 30^{\circ}$

velocity of the ball after being kicked, $v=18 m.s^{-1}$

mass of the ball, $m=0.425\, kg$

time of application of force, $t=5.3\times 10^{-2}\,s$

We know, since body is starting from the rest

$\Delta p=m.v$ .....................(1)

$\Delta p=0.425\times 18$

$\Delta p=7.65 \,kg.m.s^{-1}$

Now the components:

$\Delta p_x= 7.65\times cos 30^{\circ}$

$\Delta p_x= 6.6251 \,kg.m.s^{-1}$

similarly

$\Delta p_y= 7.65\times sin 30^{\circ}$

$\Delta p_y= 3.825 \,kg.m.s^{-1}$

also, impulse

$I=F\times t$ .........................(2)

where F is the force applied for t time.

Then from eq. (1) & (2)

$F\times t=m.v$

$F\times 5.3\times 10^{-2}= 7.65$

$F=144.3396\,N$

Now, the components

$F_x=144.3396\times cos 30^{\circ}$

$F_x=125.0018\,N$

&

$F_y=144.3396\times sin 30^{\circ}$

$F_y=72.1698\,N$

The speed of a certain electron is 995 km s−1 . If the uncertainty in its momentum is to be reduced to 0.0010 per cent, what unc

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The uncertainty in the location that must be tolerated is $1.163 * 10^{-5} m$

Explanation:

From the uncertainty Principle,

Δ $_{y}$ Δ $_{p}$ $= \frac{h}{2\pi }$

The momentum P $_{y}$ = (mass of electron)(speed of electron)

= $(9.109 * 10^{-31}kg)(995 * 10^{3} m/s)$

= $9.0638 * 10^{-25}kgm/s$

If the uncertainty is reduced to a 0.0010%, then momentum

= $9.068 * 10^{-30}kgm/s$

Thus the uncertainty in the position would be:

Δ $_{y} = \frac{h}{2\pi } * \frac{1}{9.068 * 10^{-30} }$

Δ $_{y} \geq 1.163 * 10^{-5}m$
