Answer: <em>2 N/cm  (B)</em>

Given that:

Spring stretches = 2 cm ,

Force  = 4 N,

<em>determine </em>

            the spring constant/elastic constant ( k)= ?

            We know that from hook's law, <em>F = k.x</em>  N

                                                                 4 = k × 2

                                                                => k  =4/2

                                                                         = 2 N/cm

The elastic constant is 2 N/cm

An astronaut floating in space throws a wrench forward with the force of 10 N.
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

10N

Explanation:

1. Every Action has an equal and opposite reAction.

2. If 10N of force is acted upon an wrench, then the wrench will react with an equal amount of force, but in the opposite direction.

Applying the Law of Conservation of Energy. If a car was released down the track from a height what happens to the potential ene
erastova [34]

Answer:

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created or destroyed,  although it can be changed from one form to another.    KE + PE = constant. A simple example involves a stationary car at the top of a hill.  As the car coasts down the hill, it moves faster and so it’s kinetic energy increases and it’s potential energy decreases.  On the way back up the hill, the car converts kinetic energy to potential energy.  In the absence of friction, the car should end up at the same height as it started.

This law had to be combined with the law of conservation of mass when it was determined that mass can be inter-converted with energy.

One can also imagine the energy transformation in a pendulum.  When the ball is at the top of its swing, all of the pendulum’s energy is potential energy.   When the ball is at the bottom of its swing, all of the pendulum’s energy is kinetic energy.   The total energy of the ball stays the same but is continuously exchanged between kinetic and potential forms

How are electrical signals transmitted over long distances?
forsale [732]

Answer:

Over such small distances, digital data may be transmitted as direct, two-level electrical signals over simple copper conductors. This results from the electrical distortion of signals traveling through long conductors, and from noise added to the signal as it propagates through a transmission medium.
