<h2>
Answer:</h2>
0.126m
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
According to Hooke's law, the force (F) acting on a spring to cause an extension or compression (e) is given by;
F = k x e -------------------(i)
Where;
k = the spring's constant.
From the question, the force acting on the spring is the weight(W) of the mass. i.e
F = W -----------------------(ii)
<em>But;</em>
W = m x g;
where;
m = mass of the object
g = acceleration due to gravity [usually taken as 10m/s²]
<em>From equation (ii), it implies that;</em>
F = W = m x g
<em>Now substitute F = m x g into equation(i) as follows;</em>
F = k x e
m x g = k x e ------------------(iii)
<em>From the question;</em>
m = m1 = 3.5kg
k = 278N/m
<em>Substitute these values into equation (iii) as follows;</em>
3.5 x 10 = 278 x e
35 = 278e
<em>Now solve for e;</em>
e = 35/278
e = 0.126m
Therefore, the distance the spring is stretched from its unstretched length (which is the same as the extension of the spring) is 0.126m
Answer
given,
discharge rate from pipe = 1000 gallons/minutes
now,
flow rate in cubic meters per second
1 gallon = 0.00378541 m³
1 min = 60 s
Q = 
Q = 0.063 m³/s
flow rate in liters per minute
1 gallon = 3.78541 L
Q = 
Q = 3785.41 m³/min
flow rate in cubic feet per second
1 gallon = 0.133681 ft³
1 min = 60 s
Q = 
Q = 2.23 ft³/s
Answer:
medium
Explanation:
<em>A sound </em><em>medium</em><em> is defined as channel through which sound can travel or be transmitted. </em>
Sound medium could be in the form gases, liquids, solids or plasmas. Space is made up of vacuum and therefore, has no medium within it. Hence, space cannot transmit sound in any form or allows sound to travel through it.
From Boyle's law, the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant absolute temperature.
Therefore; P1V1 =P2V2; where PV is a constant
hence; 12 × 6 = 3× p2
p2 = 72/3
= 24 atm
Therefore; the new pressure will be 24 atm
Answer:
<h2>12 m/s²</h2>
Explanation:
The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

f is the force
m is the mass
From the question
f = 6000 N
m = 500 kg
We have

We have the final answer as
<h3>12 m/s²</h3>
Hope this helps you
