By definition we have that the force of the spring is given by:
 F = -k * deltax
 Where,
 k: spring constant
 deltax = elongation
 Let's clear k:
 k = -F / delta x
 k = mg / delta x
 delta x = 0.119 -0.1 = 0.019m
 Substituting the values:
 k = (1) * (9.81) / (. 019)
 k = 516 N / m
 Answer:
<span> the spring constant of this spring is
</span> k = 516 N / m

When atoms of an element are excited, they emit specific wavelengths of light. How is this similar to a fingerprint when Fraunho
Anika [276]

Answer:

As you may know, each element has a "fixed" number of protons and electrons.

These electrons live in elliptical orbits around the nucleus, called valence levels or energy levels.

We know that as further away are the orbits from the nucleus, the more energy has the electrons in it. (And those energies are fixed)

Now, when an electron jumps from a level to another, there is also a jump in energy, and that jump depends only on the levels, then the jump in energy is fixed.

Particularly, when an electron jumps from a more energetic level to a less energetic one, that change in energy must be compensated in some way, and that way is by radiating a photon whose energy is exactly the same as the energy of the jump.

And the energy of a photon is related to the wavelength of the photon, then we can conclude that for a given element, the possible jumps of energy levels are known, meaning that the possible "jumps in energy" are known, which means that the wavelengths of the radiated photons also are known. Then by looking at the colors of the bands (whose depend on the wavelength of the radiated photons) we can know almost exactly what elements are radiating them.

if you are in Birmingham AL, and you want to use your cell phone to talk to your cousin in Houston, TX, what must occur in order
lesantik [10]

Answer:

For communication to be communicated between you and your cousin who is in Houston,Texas, when a call is made by you, a request is made to the specific phone, and the telephone tower will get the request from the mobile phone. Then a signal is sent via a transmitter underground, by this the satellite communicates with the local receiver in Houston, that is linked to the local tower over there, the tower would request for your cousin's number and connects the two of you, once a link is set.

Explanation:

From the example stated, what is required for such for a far distance, is a communication satellite link.

When a call is made by you, the a connection request is sent to the specified phone.The telephone tower receives the request from The mobile phone. The local tower(Birmingham,Al) is linked to a ground transmitter by the means of a Fiber optical cable.

A signal is sent to satellite via the ground transmitter.The satellite then set's off the local receiver in (Houston,Texas) which on it's end is connected to the local tower there. This tower then ask for your cousin's mobile for a call that will be incoming, a link is set, once he/she receives the call, from there a conversation can be done.

Which transition represents a time when water molecules are moving closer together?
slava [35]
A. Is very attractive. If it's sublimation directly from water vapor in the air to ice on the glass, then yes. But from liquid water mist to water ice, no. Ice is less dense than water. That's why cubes float in your soda. Better leave 'A' alone. . . . D. Ice pellets turn to liquid. That one's good.

Can someone help me with this Physics question please?
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The formula for this, the easy one, is

N=N_0(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{t}{H} where No is the initial amount of the element, t is the time in years, and H is the half life. Filling in:

N=48.0(\frac{1}{2})^{\frac{49.2}{12.3} and simplifying a bit:

N=48.0(.5)^4 and

N = 48.0(.0625) so

N = 3 mg left after 12.3 years
