Zina [86]

Answer:

The value of spring constant is 266.01 $\frac{N}{m}$

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of pellet $m = 2.01 \times 10^{-2}$ kg

Height difference of pellet rise $h_{f} - h_{o} = 6.03$ m

Spring compression $x = 9.45 \times 10^{-2}$ m

From energy conservation law,

Spring potential energy is stored into potential energy,

$mg(h_{f} -h_{o}) = \frac{1}{2} kx^{2}$

Where $k =$ spring constant, $g = 9.8 \frac{m}{s^{2} }$

$k = \frac{2mg(h_{f} -h_{o} )}{x^{2} }$

$k = \frac{2 \times 9.8 \times 6.03\times 2.01 \times 10^{-2} }{(9.45\times 10^{-2} )^{2} }$

$k = 266.01$ $\frac{N}{m}$

Therefore, the value of spring constant is 266.01 $\frac{N}{m}$

The density of nuclear matter is about 1018 kg/m3. Given that 1 mL is equal in volume to 1 cm3, what is the density of nuclear m

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

density is $10^{6}$ Mg/µL

Explanation:

given data

density of nuclear = $10^{18}$ kg/m³

1 ml = 1 cm³

to find out

density of nuclear matter in Mg/µL

solution

we know here

1 Mg = 1000 kg

1 m³ is equal to $10^{6}$ cm³

and here 1 cm³ is equal to 1 mL

so we can say 1 mL is equal to 10³ µL

so by these we can convert density

density = $10^{18}$ kg/m³

density = $10^{18}$ kg/m³ × $\frac{10^{-3} }{10^{6} }$ Mg/µL

density = $10^{6}$ Mg/µL
