The ideal spring equation is

                               Stretch  =  K  times  Force  .

This says that the stretch is directly proportional to the force.
In simple English, that means that if you double the force, then
you double the stretch, and if you multiply the force by  π  or
any other number, you multiply the stretch by the same number.

So you can always write a proportion for a spring:

                 Stretch₁ / Force₁  =  Stretch₂ / Force₂ .

Part A:

In Part-A of this question, the force is increased to  (2.5 / 2.0) =  1.25 times .

So the stretch is also increased to  1.25 times .

                 (1.25) x (6.1 cm)  =  7.625 cm  .

Water at room temperature is discharged from a pipe at a rate of 1000 gallons per minute (gpm). Express this flow rate in cubic
marshall27 [118]

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 = 1000\times \dfrac{0.00378541\ m^3}{1\ gallon}\times \dfrac{1\ min}{60\ s}

Q = 0.063 m³/s

flow rate in  liters per minute

1 gallon = 3.78541 L

 Q = 1000\times \dfrac{3.78541\ m^3}{1\ gallon}

 Q = 3785.41 m³/min

flow rate in cubic feet per second

 1 gallon = 0.133681 ft³

 1 min = 60 s

Q = 1000\times \dfrac{0.133681\ ft^3}{1\ gallon}\times \dfrac{1\ min}{60\ s}

Q = 2.23 ft³/s

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

915 Hz

Explanation:

The observed frequency from a sound source is given as

f₀ = f [(v + v₀)/(v+vₛ)]

where

f₀ = observed frequency of the sound by the observer = ?

f = actual frequency of the sound wave = 983 Hz

v = actual velocity of the sound waves = 343 m/s

vₛ = velocity of the source of the sound waves = 55.9 m/s

v₀ = velocity of the observer = 28.4 m/s

f₀ = 983 [(343+28.4)/(343+55.9)]

f₀ = 915.2 Hz = 915 Hz
