The restoring force in the spring will be 3F if it is stretched to a length of \boxed{13\,{\text{cm}}}.

Further Explanation:

When a spring is we compressed or stretched, there is a force which develops in the spring restoring force of the spring which tends to bring the spring back to normal length.

The restoring force of the spring is expressed as:

F= k\cdot\Delta x                            ......(1)

Here, F is the force developed in the spring due to stretching,   is the spring constant and 11\,{\text{cm}} is the change in length of the spring.

\begin{aligned}\Deltax&= {x_f} - {x_i}\\&= 0.10 - 0.11\\&= 0.01\,{\text{m}}\\\end{aligned}

Substitute the values of F and \Delta x in equation (1).

\begin{aligned}F &= k\cdot 0.01\hfill\\k&=\frac{F}{{0.01}} \hfill\\\end{aligned}

The restoring force of 3F is experienced by the spring when the stretched length of the spring should be:

3F = k.\Delta x

Substitute \dfrac{F}{{0.01}} for k in above expression.

\begin{aligned}3F&=\frac{F}{{0.01}} \cdot\Delta x'\\\Delta x' &= 3 \times 0.01\,{\text{m}}\\&=3\,{\text{cm}}\\\end{aligned}

Therefore, the new length of the spring will be:

\begin{aligned}L&={x_o} + \Delta x' \\&= 10\,{\text{cm}} + 3\,{\text{cm}}\\&= 13\,{\text{cm}}\\\end{aligned}

Thus, the restoring force in the spring will be 3F if it is stretched to a length of \boxed{13\,{\text{cm}}}.

A secret agent is locked in a room. He pushes against the door but cannot open it. Finally, he falls to the floor exhausted. Has
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer: There is not work done at the door because the door did not move.

Explanation:  Work is defined as the movement done by a force.

So if you move to apply a force F in an object and you move it a distance D, the work applied on the object is  

W = F*D

In this case, the secret agent pushes against the door, so there is a force, but the agent does not move the door, so D = 0, so there is no motion of the door, which implies that there is no work done at the door.

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

31.404 seconds

Explanation:

To answer this equation, SUVAT is your best option utilizing and rearranging the known values to solve for the unknown.

here we have the values for

s=895

u=22

v=35

t= the unknown value

in this instant the equation s=0.5 x (u+v)t is the best equation to use

so we sub in the known values

895=0.5 x (22+35)t

rearrange to solve for t

895=28.5t

895/28.5=t

t=31.404 seconds (rounded to 3 decimal places)

There is a 3-kg toy cart moving at 4 m/s. Calculate the kinetic<br> energy of the cart.
m_a_m_a [10]

The kinetic energy of the cart is 24 J.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The acceleration of a given mass from rest to the velocity is known as kinetic energy. It gains energy from acceleration and remains in this state until the speed of the object changes.  

The kinetic energy is the given by,

                           K.E = 1/2 mv^2

Given the mass m = 3 kg,        v = 4 m / s.

                            K.E = 1/2 \times 3 \times (4)^2          

                          K.E  = 24 J.
