Answer:
a)1815Joules b) 185Joules
Explanation:
Hooke's law states that the extension of a material is directly proportional to the applied force provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded. Mathematically;
F = ke where;
F is the applied force
k is the elastic constant
e is the extension of the material
From the formula, k = F/e
F1/e1 = F2/e2
If a force of 60N causes an extension of 0.5m of the string from its equilibrium position, the elastic constant of the spring will be ;
k = 60/0.5
k = 120N/m
a) To get the work done in stretching the spring 5.5m from its position,
Work done by the spring = 1/2ke²
Given k = 120N/m, e = 5.5m
Work done = 1/2×120×5.5²
Work done = 60× 5.5²
Work done = 1815Joules
b) work done in compressing the spring 1.5m from its equilibrium position will be gotten using the same formula;
Work done = 1/2ke²
Work done =1/2× 120×1.5²
Works done = 60×1.5²
Work done = 135Joules
Answer:
527 Hz
Solution:
As per the question:
Beat frequency of the player, 
Frequency of the tuning fork, f = 523 Hz
Now,
The initial frequency can be calculated as:


when

when

But we know that as the length of the flute increases the frequency decreases
Hence, the initial frequency must be 527 Hz
Answer:
Force, |F| = 2100 N
Explanation:
It is given that,
Water from a fire hose is directed horizontally against at a rate of 50.0 kg/s, 
Initial speed, v = 42 m/s
The momentum is reduced to zero, final speed, v = 0
The relation between the force and the momentum is given by :



|F| = 2100 N
So, the magnitude of the force exerted on the wall is 2100 N. Hence, this is the required solution.
The gravitational force between the Earth and the satellite (its "weight") is inversely proportional to the distance between the centers of both objects.
On the surface, their centers are separated by 1 Earth radius.
12,000 miles above the surface, they're separated by 4 Earth radiii.
(4/1) = 4
So after the move, the satellite's weight is (1/4²) = 1/16 of its surface weight.
(321 lb) / (16) = (20 and a hair) lb
The correct choice from the given list is " <em>>20 lb "</em> .
