<u>Answer</u>

9 m


<u>Explanation</u>

The energy stored in a spring is given by:

Energy = 1/2 k²e

Where e is the compression and k is the spring constant.

 Energy = 1/2 × 176,400 × 0.2²

              = 3,528 N

The same energy will then be converted to potential energy given by:

Energy = mgh

Where m is the mass, g is the gravity and h is the height above the ground.

Energy = mgh

3,528 = 40 × 9.8 × h

3,528 = 392h

h = 9 m

Possible reasons why seascorpions went extinct
BabaBlast [244]
Sea scorpions or Eurypterids lived about 251.9 million years ago. They were formidable predators and hunters, but they were wiped out in the Great Permian Mass Extinction, which is also known as the Great Dying (96% of all species on Earth went extinct).The largest species like Jaekelopterus was over 7 feet long! They were mainly thought to go extinct because of a slew of natural disasters that occurred when a comet hit the Earth, as well as increased volcanic activity polluting the seas that Sea scorpions lived in, as well as rising sea temperatures. The Silurian, when these Sea scorpions proliferated was when the water was cooler, holding in more nutrients, allowing both Sea Scorpions and other animals to spread all over the world. But as the oceans became polluted from the volcanoes (and the ash they produced) and the global ocean temperatures began to rise, many animals may not have been able to cope or adapt to the extreme change, becoming helpless in their nutrient deficient water (compared to what they were used to).

I hope this helps!

Explain numericals of electricity chapter of class 10 and also diagrams.What is ammeter?What is voltmeter?potential difference?O
SVEN [57.7K]

Let's explain the following electrical terms.

• Electric current, can be said to be the flow of electric charge. These charges are through a conductor by moving electrons.

• Ammeter, is an instrument used to measure the amount of electric current in a circuit.

The name ammeter was derived from the unit of electric current (Amperes).

• Voltmeter, can be said to be an instrument used to measure the voltage(potential difference) in a circuit. It measures the electric potential between two points in an electrical circuit. It can also be called voltage meter.

• Electric circuit, can be defined as the conductive path for the flow of electric current.

It allows electric charge carriers to flow continuously.

• Resistance ,can be said to be the property of an electrical conductor which resists the flow of electric current. It is measured in ohms.

• Ohms law, states that the potential difference (V) between two points is directly proportional to the electric current across two points.

It is deonted as: V = I x R

Voltage = Current x Resistance

• Electric potential ,can be said to be the amount of electric potential energy at a point.
