Given that:

spring compressed ( x) = 0.2 m

Work (W) = 24 J

determine , spring constant (x)=?

We know hat ,

Work (W) = (1/2). k.x²

24 = 1/2 ( k × 0.2²)

48 = k × 0.2²

Bicyclists in the Tour de France do enormous amounts of work during a race. For example, the average power per kilogram generate

tigry1 [53]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Average power per unit mass generated by Lance, $\dfrac{P}{m}=6.5\ W/kg$

$P=6.5\times 75=487.5\ W$

(a) Distance to cover race, $d = 160\ km =160\times 10^3\ m$

Average speed of the person, v = 11 m/s

If t is the time taken to cover the race.

$t=\dfrac{d}{v}$

$t=\dfrac{160\times 10^3\ m}{11\ m/s}$

t = 14545.46 s

Let W is the work done. The relation between the work done and the power is given by :

$P=\dfrac{W}{t}$

$W=P\times t$

$W=487.5\times 14545.46$

W = 7090911.75 J

(b) Since, $1\ J=2.389\times 10^{-4}\ calories$

So, in 7090911.75 J, $W=7090911.75 \times 2.389\times 10^{-4}$

W = 1694.01 J

Hence, this is the required solution.

The wavelength of light is 5000 angstrom. Express it in nm and m.

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

1 angstrom = 0.1nm

5000 angstrom = 5000/1 × 0.1nm

$1 \: angstrom = 1 \times {10}^{ - 10} m$

5000 angstrom = 5000 × 1 × 10^-10

Hope this helps you

When a neutrally charged atom loses an electron to another atom, the result is the creation of

Ostrovityanka [42]

That would make a cation. If it gained one instead, then it would make an anion.
