Answer:

284.4233 N/m

Explanation:

k = Spring constant

x = Compression of spring = 14.5 cm

U = Potential energy = 2.99 J

The potential energy of a spring is given by

U=\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2

Rearranging to get the value of k

\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{2U}{x^2}\\\Rightarrow k=\dfrac{2\times 2.99}{0.145^2}\\\Rightarrow k=284.4233\ N/m

The spring constant is 284.4233 N/m

Several wires of varying thickness are all made of the same material and all have the same length. If the wires are arranged in
aev [14]

Answer:

Option A is correct.

The wires will be arranged in order of increasing resistance.

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by

r = (ρl)/A

where r = resistance of the wire

ρ = resistivity of the wire

L = length of the wire

A = cross sectional area of the wire

Provided all the other parameters are constant, resistance is inversely proportional to cross sectional area

r ∝ (1/A)

And the the cross sectional Area of the wire increases with increase in thickness & decreases with thickness

So, decreasing thickness ----> Decreasing Cross sectional Area ----> Increasing resistance.

Which of the following is a possible use for nuclear energy?
belka [17]
<span>Nuclear energy can be used to power all of the above choices. Nuclear power plants produce radioactive waste that must be stored properly. It is very impossible for a nuclear power plant to have no waste at all since lots of chemicals are used to create the process as it gives energy to other machines, weapons such as bombs and  powering submarines.  Radioactive waste can not be released into local water supplies since the wastes are very radioactive and may cause mutation to the fishes and bioaccumulation which will affect humans as well. It will also cause air pollution if the chemicals are not stored properly.</span>
