The law applied here is Hooke's Law which describes the force exerted by the spring with a given distance. The equation for this is F = kΔx, where F is the force in Newtons, k is the spring constant in N/m while Δx is the displacement in meters.

If you want to find work done by a spring, this can be solved by using differential equations. However, derived equations are already ready for use. The equation is

W = k[{x₂-x₁)² - (x₁-xn)²],

where 
xn is the natural length
x₁ is the stretched length 
x₂ is also the stretched length when stretched even further than x₁

In this case xn =x₁. So, that means that (x₁-xn) = 0 and (x₂-x₁) = 11 cm or 0.11 m.

Then, substituting the values,

2 J = k (0.11² -0²)
k = 165.29 N/m

Finally, we use the value of k to the Hooke's Law to determine the Force.

F = kΔx = (165.29 N/m)(0.11 m)
F = 18.18 Newtons

What can you infer about the density of two objects if they object remains suspended in the liquid?
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Equal Densities

Explanation:

if the density of the object was greater than that of the liquid, it would sink to the bottom. if the density od the object was lesser than the liquid, it would float :)

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

Ice and water vapor.

Explanation:

Ice is a solid state and water vapor is gas. Gas comes from water being heated. Plasma is also a fourth, less known, state of matter. I hope this helps. :)

wo parallel-plate capacitors C1 and C2 are connected in parallel to a 12.0 V battery. Both capacitors have the same plate area o
tresset_1 [31]

Complete Question

Two parallel-plate capacitors C1 and C2 are connected in parallel to a 12.0 V battery. Both capacitors have the same plate area of 5.30 cm2 and plate separation of 2.65 mm. However, the first capacitor C1 is filled with air, while the second capacitor C2 is filled with a dielectric that has a dielectric constant of 2.10.

(a) What is the charge stored on each capacitor

 (b)  What is the total charge stored in the parallel combination?

Answer:

a

   i    Q_1 =  2.124 *10^{-11} \  C

   ii    Q_2 =  4.4604 *10^{-11} \ C

b

  Q_{eq} = 6.5844 *10^{-11} \ C

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  voltage of the battery is  V  = 12.0  \ V

    The  plate area of each capacitor is  A  =  5.30 \ cm^2  =  5.30 *10^{-4} \ m^2

    The  separation between the plates is  d =  2.65 \ mm =  2.65 *10^{-3} \ m

     The permittivity of free space  has a value  \epsilon_o  =  8.85 *10^{-12} \  F/m

     The  dielectric constant of the other material is  z =  2.10

The  capacitance of the  first capacitor is mathematically represented as

       C_1  =  \frac{\epsilon  *  A }{d }

substituting values

        C_1  =  \frac{8.85 *10^{-12 } *   5.30 *10^{-4} }{2.65 *10^{-3} }

       C_1  =  1.77 *10^{-12} \  F

The  charge stored in the first capacitor is  

       Q_1 =  C_1 *  V

substituting values

        Q_1 =  1.77 *10^{-12} * 12

       Q_1 =  2.124 *10^{-11} \  C

The capacitance of the second  capacitor is mathematically represented as

       C_2  =  \frac{ z * \epsilon  *  A }{d }

substituting values

       C_1  =  \frac{  2.10 *8.85 *10^{-12 } *   5.30 *10^{-4} }{2.65 *10^{-3} }

       C_1  =  3.717 *10^{-12}  \ F

The  charge stored in the second capacitor is  

      Q_2 =  C_2 *  V

substituting values

     Q_2 = 3.717*10^{-12} *  12

     Q_2 =  4.4604 *10^{-11} \ C

Now  the total charge stored in the parallel combination is mathematically represented as

     Q_{eq} =  Q_1 + Q_2

substituting values

    Q_{eq} =  4.4604 *10^{-11} + 2.124*10^{-11}

     Q_{eq} = 6.5844 *10^{-11} \ C
