A block slides with no friction and hits a spring with spring constant k=2000 N/m. The block compresses the spring in a straight

line for a distance 0.15m. The block’s kinetic energy, in J, at that point is 0 J. What was its initial kinetic energy, in Joules?

To solve this exercise it is necessary to apply the concepts related to kinetic energy in a spring.

By definition the kinetic energy keeping what is stipulated in the stable Hooke law that

KE_s = \frac{1}{2} kx^2

Where,

K = Spring constant

x = Displacement

Our values are given as,

x = 0.15m

k = 2000N/m

Therefore replacing

KE_s = \frac{1}{2} kx^2

KE_s = \frac{1}{2} (2000)(0.15)^2

KE_s = 22.5J

Therefore the initial kinetic energy is 22.5J

Answer:

a.) The main scale reading is 10.2cm

b.) Division 7 = 0.07

c.) 10.27 cm

d.)  10.31 cm

e.)  10.24 cm  

Explanation:

The figure depicts a vernier caliper readings

a.) The main scale reading is 10.2 cm

The reading before the vernier scale

b.) Division 7 = 0.07

the point where the main scale and vernier scale meet

c.) The observed readings is

10.2 + 0.07 = 10.27 cm

d.) If the instrument has a positive zero error of 4 division

correct reading = 10.27 + 0.04 = 10.31cm

e.)  If the instrument has a negative zero error of 3 division

correct reading = 10.27 - 0.03 = 10.24cm

Answer:

Contemporary light microscopes are able to magnify objects up to about a thousand times. Since most cells are between 1 and 100 μm in diameter, they can be observed by light microscopy, as can some of the larger subcellular organelles, such as nuclei, chloroplasts, and mitochondria.

A cell is the smallest unit of a living thing. A living thing, whether made of one cell (like bacteria) or many cells (like a human), is called an organism. Thus, cells are the basic building blocks of all organisms.

Cells have many structures inside of them called organelles. These organelles are like the organs in a human and they help the cell stay alive. Each organelle has it's own specific function to help the cell survive. The nucleus of a eukaryotic cell directs the cell's activities and stores DNA.

If the cell grows beyond a certain limit, not enough material will be able to cross the membrane fast enough to accommodate the increased cellular volume. When this happens, the cell must divide into smaller cells with favorable surface area/volume ratios, or cease to function.

What is the relation between the direction of electric field and equipotential line at the same point
gavmur [86]

Answer:

The direction of electric field and equipotential line at the same point are always PERPENDICULAR TO THE ELECTRIC FIELD.

Explanation:

Equipotential surface is a three dimensional part of equipotential lines.

Equipotential lines are a type of contour lines that is use to trace lines that have the same altitude on the map and the altitude is the electric potential.

Equipotential lines are always perpendicular to electric potential because the lines creates three dimension equipotential surface.
