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

Blocks A and B are identical metal blocks. Initially block A is neutral, and block B has a net charge of 7.0 nC. Using insulatin
maxonik [38]

Answer:

Block A will have a final charge of 3.5nC.

Explanation:

This is because at the point of contact with Block B, which is electrically positive, the electrons in Block A will be attracted to the excess 'unpaired' protons in block B. Hence, the electrons will flow into Block B causing unpaired protons to remain in Block A.

This process is called Charging by Conduction.

This charging process will continue until the charges are evenly distributed between both objects.

In case you're wondering, "<em>how's all this possible within a few seconds</em>?", remember that electrons travel very fast and so, this process is a rather rapid one.

A racecar accelerates from rest at 6.5 m/s2 for 4.1 s. How fast will it be going at the end of that time?
Pie

Answer:

The final velocity of the car is 26.65 m/s.

Explanation:

Given;

acceleration of the racecar, a = 6.5 m/s²

initial velocity of the car, u = 0

time of motion, t = 4.1 s

The final velocity of the car is given by;

v = u + at

where;

v is the final velocity of the car

suvstitute the givens

v = 0 + (6.5)(4.1)

v = 26.65 m/s.

Therefore, the final velocity of the car is 26.65 m/s.

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

\frac{F}{W} = 9.37 \times 10^{-4}

Explanation:

Radius of the pollen is given as

r = 12.0 \mu m

Volume of the pollen is given as

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

V = \frac{4}{3}\pi (12\mu m)^3

V = 7.24 \times 10^{-15} m^3

mass of the pollen is given as

m = \rho V

m = 7.24 \times 10^{-12}

so weight of the pollen is given as

W = mg

W = (7.24 \times 10^{-12})(9.81)

W = 7.1 \times 10^{-11}

Now electric force on the pollen is given

F = qE

F = (-0.700\times 10^{-15})(95)

F = 6.65 \times 10^{-14} N

now ratio of electric force and weight is given as

\frac{F}{W} = \frac{6.65 \times 10^{-14}}{7.1 \times 10^{-11}}

\frac{F}{W} = 9.37 \times 10^{-4}
