uppose that 3 J of work is needed to stretch a spring from its natural length of 30 cm to a length of 45 cm. (a) How much work i

s needed to stretch the spring from 35 cm to 37 cm? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) .02 Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect. J (b) How far beyond its natural length will a force of 10 N keep the spring stretched? (Round your answer one decimal place.)

Answer:

(a) The work done is 0.05 J

(b) The  force will stretch the spring by 3.8 cm

Explanation:

Given;

work done in stretching the spring from 30 cm to 45 cm, W = 3 J

extension of the spring, x = 45 cm - 30 cm = 15 cm = 0.15 m

The work done is given by;

W = ¹/₂kx²

where;

k is the force constant of the spring

k = 2W / x²

k = (2 x 3) / (0.15)²

k = 266.67 N/m

(a) the extension of the spring, x = 37 cm - 35 cm = 2 cm = 0.02 m

work done is given by;

W = ¹/₂kx²

W = ¹/₂ (266.67)(0.02)²

W = 0.05 J

(b) force = 10 N

natural length L = 30 cm

F = kx

x = F / k

x = 10 / 266.67

x = 0.0375 m

x = 3.75 cm = 3.8 cm

Thus a force of 10 N will stretch the spring by 3.8 cm

Find the frequency (in hertz) of the first overtone for a 1.75 m pipe that is closed at only one end. Use 350 m/s for the speed
serg [7]

Answer:

The first overtone frequency is 100 Hz.

Solution:

According to the question:

Length of pipe, l = 1.75 m

Speed of sound in air, v_{sa} = 350 m/s

Frequency of first overtone, f_{1} is given by:

f_{1} = \frac{v_{sa}}{2l}

f_{1} = \frac{350}{2\times 1.75} = 100 Hz

Since, the frequency, as clear from the formula depends only on the speed

and the length. It is independent of the air temperature.

Thus there will be no effect of air temperature on the frequency.

Radiant heat makes it impossible to stand close to a hot lava flow. Calculate the rate of heat loss by radiation from 1.00 m^2 o
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

259.274 kW

Explanation:

Given:

Area of the lava, A = 1.00 m²

Temperature of the surrounding, T₁ = 30.0° C = 303 k

Temperature of the lava, T₂ = 1190° C = 1463 K

emissivity, e = 1

Now,

from the Stefan-Boltzmann law of radiation the rate of heat loss is given as,

u = σeA(T₂⁴ - T₁⁴)

where,

u = rate of heat loss

σ = Stefan-Boltzmann constant =  5.67 × 10⁻⁸ W/m²∙K⁴

on substituting the respective values, we get

u = 5.67 × 10⁻⁸ × 1 × 1 × (1463⁴ - 303⁴)

or

u = 259274.957 W

or

u = 259.274 kW

Harnessing tidal power would involve:_______.a) letting in-flowing and/or out-flowing tide flow through turbines in a dam.b) hug
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

a) letting in-flowing and/or out-flowing tide flow through turbines in a dam.

Explanation:

Tidal power makes use of the energy from the tidal force and wave action in order to generate electricity. it is a predictable source of energy.

Tidal Barrages

The system allows tides to enter, seawater flows via the dam and is trapped into the basin when the tides subside and system’s gates close.

When the tides start to move out, the gates in the dam are opened up this consist of turbines and water begins to flow out, hitting the turbines this eventually turn to produce energy.

Power is produced when the tidal range, which is the difference between low and high tide, has to be more than 5 meters.
