Answer:
<u>the autumnal equinox (when day and night are of equal length)</u>
<u>Explanation:</u>
The first event occurs around the 22nd or 23rd in the month of September. What usually happens is that regions around the Northern Hemisphere (which includes all of North America and Europe) experience an equal length of day and night.
While the second event occurs around March 20th or 21st mainly observable in countries found in the Southern Hemisphere.
Answer:
k = 22.05 N/m
Explanation:
The potential energy of the mass is converted into potential energy of the spring.
Given:
mass m = 0.27 kg
gravitational constant g = 9.8 m/s²
distance falling/ stretching of spring h = 0.24 m

Solving for k:

A: makes work easier to do.
Answer:
53,130 J
Explanation:
When a certain substance absorbs heat, the temperature of the substance increases according to the equation:

where
Q is the amount of heat absorbed
m is the mass of the substance
C the specific heat capacity
the change in temperature of the substance
In this problem:
m = 2.3 kg is the mass of copper
is the increase in temperature
is the specific heat of copper
So, the amount of heat absorbed is:
