Answer:

12.0N

Explanation:

This problem is solved using Hooke's law which states that the extension or compression experienced by an elastic material is proportional the the force or load applied provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded.

$F=ke..................(1)$

where F is the force applied, k is the elastic constant and e is the extension of the material.

$e=l_1-l_o..................(2)$

were $l_o$ is the original length of the material and $l_1$ is its total length after extension.

Given;

F = 8.0N

$l_o=3cm\\l_1=5cm\\k=?$

therefore,

$e=5-3\\e=2cm$

substituting all necessary values into equation (1), we get;

$8=k*2\\k=\frac{8}{2}\\k=4N/cm$

The force required to give the spring a total length of 6cm is thus calculated;

in this case,

$l_1=6cm\\therefore\\e=6-3\\e=3cm$

hence F is given as follows;

$F=(4N/cm) *3cm\\F=12.0N$

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

B. By adding the number of protons and the number of neutrons

Explanation:

The atomic mass is determined by adding the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. An atom is made up of three fundamental particles: Electrons, Protons and Neutrons.

The protons and neutrons occupy a central region in an atom known as the nucleus. The nucleus is positively charged and mass concentrated.

If we compare the relative masses of the subatomic particles, the masses of protons and neutrons would be 1 and that of an electron would be 1/1840. This shows that the mass of electrons are negligible.

In order to ascertain atomic mass, we therefore add the number of protons and neutrons together. This is how we arrive at 12.011 as the value of the atomic mass of C and for other elements.

The atomic mass is also known as the mass number.

A cat with a mass of 5.00 kg pushes on a 25.0 kg desk with a force of 50.0N to jump off. What is the force on the desk?

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

First of all the formula is F= uR,( force= static friction× reaction)

mass= 5+25=30

F= 50

R= mg(30×10)=300

u= ?

F=UR

u= F/R

u= 50/300=0.17N

Which of the following is NOT one of the four elements of emotion?

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Attention

Explanation:

Hello there, fellow peer! The answer to question is attention. Let's say someone is the control. The behavioral expression is an element of expression, so the control will feel emotions. Subjective Experience is when someone felt the way you feel and they are trying to help you. That is a type of emotion which can lead to empathy for you. This is also not the answer. Physiological Arousal is also not the answer because this is when you can feel what someone else is feeling and you try to give them therapy.

Using the process of elimination, our answer is therefore attention.
