Answer:

240.1 N/m

Explanation:

Applying the formula for the potential energy stored in a stretched spring,

E = 1/2ke².................... Equation 1

Where E = potential energy, k = spring constant, e = extension.

make k the subject of the equation,

k = 2E/e².................. Equation 2

Given: E = 35 J, e = 0.54 m

Substitute into equation 2

k = 2(35)/0.54²

k = 70/0.2916

k = 240.1 N/m.

Hence the spring constant of the spring is 240.1 N/m

How is newtons third law of motion demonstrated on a roller coaster?

butalik [34]

<span>Newton's Third Law of Action-Reaction is that for each and every action that happens, there is an equal and opposite reaction to it. In the scenario of a roller coaster, this is when you push down on the seat of the roller coaster as it flies along and the seat pushes back against you.</span>

A particular car engine operates between temperatures of 440°C (inside the cylinders of the engine) and 20°C (the temperature of

Step2247 [10]

One of the concepts to be used to solve this problem is that of thermal efficiency, that is, that coefficient or dimensionless ratio calculated as the ratio of the energy produced and the energy supplied to the machine.

From the temperature the value is given as

$\eta = 1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}$

Where,

T_L = Cold focus temperature

T_H = Hot spot temperature

Our values are given as,

T_L = 20\° C = (20+273) K = 293 K

T_H = 440\° C = (440+273) K = 713 K

Replacing we have,

$\eta = 1-\frac{T_L}{T_H}$

$\eta = 1-\frac{293}{713}$

$\eta = 0.589$

Therefore the maximum possible efficiency the car can have is 58.9%

two masses are separated by 1 m. suppose the masses are moved so they are 2 m apart how will the gravitational force change

Verdich [7]

The gravitational force would get stronger because the farther the two masses are separated the more gravitational force will be used to pull them together the closer they are the less gravitational pull is used to pull them together
