<h2>Spring constant is 14.72 N/m</h2>

Explanation:

We have for a spring

            Force =  Spring constant x Elongation

            F = kx

Here force is weight of mass

           F = W = mg = 0.54 x 9.81 = 5.3 N

Elongation, x  = 36 cm = 0.36 m

Substituting

           F = kx

           5.3 = k x 0.36

             k = 14.72 N/m

Spring constant is 14.72 N/m

How the Law of Conservation of Matter is supported by the experimental demonstrations?
Delvig [45]
The law of conservation of matter states that matter cannot be created nor destroyed. It can only be transformed from one form to another. To state an example where this is shown, let's say a piece of paper is burning. Not having a scientific background, you would say that the matter is being destroyed. But in reality, the paper is simple being transformed to ash, carbon dioxide, and water vapor. Overall, the total mass would still remain the same.

Un bloque de 25 n se encuentra suspendido por un hilo al techo vitamina la tensión que aparece en el hilo
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

T = 25 N

Explanation:

The question says that "A 25 n block is suspended by a wire from the ceiling vitamin the tension that appears in the wire ?"

Weight of the block, W = 25 N

Weight of a body acts in downward direction and tension acts in upward direction. It would mean that,

Tension = weight of the block

T = mg

T = 25 N

Hence, the tension in the wire is 25 N.

50 J of work was done in order to move a chair 5 meters. what was the force applied to the chair
kolezko [41]
     Using the Definition of Work, we have:

T=F\DeltaS \\ 50=5F \\ \boxed {F=10N}
