Answer: 3.75 m

Explanation:

5 squirts in 1 second

So, 1 squirt in 1/5 second which is 0.2 second.

The difference in timing of two consecutive squirt is 0.2 second, so

time (t) = 0.2 s.

speed (s) = 15 m/s

Distance of separation (d) = ?

Now, formula for distance is

d = s × t

d = 15 × 0.2

d = 3.75 m

What is the length a rubberband was stretched if it has a spring constant of 5700N/m and is currently holding 8600J OF POTENTIAL

lozanna [386]

Answer:

$\displaystyle \Delta x=1.74\ m$

Explanation:

<u>Elastic Potential Energy </u>

Is the energy stored in an elastic material like a spring of constant k, in which case the energy is proportional to the square of the change of length Δx and the constant k.

$\displaystyle PE = \frac{1}{2}k(\Delta x)^2$

Given a rubber band of a spring constant of k=5700 N/m that is holding potential energy of PE=8600 J, it's required to find the change of length under these conditions.

Solving for Δx:

$\displaystyle \Delta x=\swrt{\frac{2PE}{k}}$

Substituting:

$\displaystyle \Delta x=\sqrt{\frac{2*8600}{5700}}$

Calculating:

$\displaystyle \Delta x=\sqrt{3.0175}$

$\boxed{\displaystyle \Delta x=1.74\ m}$

The step of this scientific method is "draw conclusion".

<h3>What is scientific method?</h3>

The scientific method is the process of objectively establishing facts through testing and experimentation.

The basic scientific process or scientific method involves the following;

making an observation
forming a hypothesis
making a prediction
conducting an experiment
analyzing the results and
drawing conclusion.

Thus, if Kim’s experiment showed that chicken eggshells were stronger when she gave the hen feed, to which extra calcium had been added. The step of this scientific method is "draw conclusion".
