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

A 1.0 C charged object and a 2.0 C charged object are separated by 100 m. Where should a -1.0x10-3 C charged object be placed on
horsena [70]

Answer:

x = 41.2 m

Explanation:

The electric force is a vector magnitude, so it must be added as vectors, remember that the force for charges of the same sign is repulsive and for charges of different sign it is negative.

In this case the fixed charges (q₁ and q₂) are positive and separated by a distance (d = 100m), the charge (q₃ = -1.0 10⁻³ C)) is negative so the forces are attractive, such as loads q₃ must be placed between the other two forces subtract

             F = F₁₃ - F₂₃

let's write the expression for each force, let's set a reference frame on the charge q1

           F₁₃ = k \frac{q_1 q_3}{x^2}

           F₂₃ = k \frac{q_2 q_3}{(d-x)^2}

they ask us that the net force be zero

           F = 0

           0 = F₁₃ - F₂₃

           F₁₃ = F₂₃

          k \frac{q_1 q_3}{x^2} =k \frac{q_2 q_3}{(d-x)^2}

          \frac{q_1}{x^2} = \frac{q_2}{(d-x)^2 }q1 / x2 = q2 / (d-x) 2

       

           (d-x)² = \frac{q_2}{q_1} x²

we substitute

           (100 - x)² = 2/1  x²

           100- x = √2  x

           100 = 2.41 x

           x = 41.2 m

A bird is flying with a speed of 18.0 m/s over water when it accidentally drops a 2.00 kg fish. If the altitude of the bird is 5
Alina [70]
Here we go.
My abbreviations; KE = Kinetic Energy; GPE = Gravitational Potential Energy.

So first off, we know the fish has KE right when the bird releases it. Why? Because it has horizontal velocity after released! So let’s calculate it:
KE = 1/2(m)(V)^2
KE = 1/2(2)(18)^2
KE = 324 J

Nice!
We also know that the fish has GPE at its maximum height before release:
GPE = mgh
GPE = (2)(9.81)(5.40)
GPE = 105.95 J

Now, based on the *queue dramatic voice* LAW OF CONSERVATION OF ENERGY, we know all of the initial energy of the fish will be equal to the amount of final energy. And since the only form of energy when it hits the water is KE, we can write:
KEi + GPEi = KEf
(Remember - we found the initial energies before!)
(324) + (105.95) = KEf
KEf = 429.95J
And that’s you’re final answer! Notice how this value is MORE than the initial KE from before (324 J) - this is because all of the initial GPE from before was transformed into more KE as the fish fell (h decreased) and sped up (V increased).

If this helped please like it and comment!

A 4.0-kilogram ball moving at 8.0 m/s to the right collides with a 1.0-kilogram ball at rest. After the collision, the 4.0-kilog
Illusion [34]
Its about momentum. Momentum (p)=mass(m)xvelocity(v)
So for the first ball P=4x8=32kgm/s
For the second the momentum is zero as it is still.
So overall momentum its 32kgm/s
Momentum has to be conserved
After the collision the momentum of the 4kg ball is 4x4.8=19.2kgm/s
As momentum is conserved 32-19.2=12.8kgm/s remaining
So rearrange for velocity so v=p/m=12.8/1=12.8m/s for the 1kg ball

How many cubic objects of volume 2cm cube can be started in a room of dimension 2m by 3m by 4m​
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

12,000,000 boxes

Explanation:

the volume of the room can be found by using the equation for volume of a rectangular box:V=LxWxH

where:

L=2m

W=3m

H=4m

(it doesn't really matter which is which since it is multiplication)

when we multiply our values (2m*3m*4m) we get 24cubic meters

now we need to convert cubic meters to cubic centimeters

each cubic meter is 1,000,000 cubic centimeter we multiply 24 by 1,000,000 and we get: 24,000,000 cubic centimeters (cc)

dividing 24,000,000 by 2 (since each box is 2cc) we get 12,000,000

so, we know we can fit 12,000,000, 2 cubic centimeter boxes in this room
