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}}}.

While driving fast around a sharp right turn, you find yourself pressing against the car door. What is happening?
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

option C

Explanation:

The correct answer is option C

When the driver takes the sharp right turn the door will exert rightward pressure on the driver.

When the driver takes the sudden right turn the tendency of the body is to be in the straight line by the vehicle moves in the circular path so, as the vehicle turns it applies a rightward force on you.

The pushing of the door to you because of the centripetal force acting on the car due to sudden sharp turn.

Crazy boy [7]

Answer:

The smallest integer is n = 4

Explanation:

Using the equation V= Sqrt(F/Linear density)

V= Sqrt(341/0.0120)

V= Sqrt(28416.7)

V= 168.57m/s

Path distance =[ (n +1)/2]lambda

But V= f(Lambda)

n lambda/2 =L

n = f2L/V

n = (20 × 2 × 16.86) / 168.57

n = 4.0007

The smallest integer is n= 4

How do you explain this arrangement of fossils? What might have happened?
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

The question lacks a photo to fully answer correctly

If the fossil has its neck bent backwards towards its back, that is the common way to which dinosaurs died.

If the fossil is scattered a bit from its other linking fossil pieces, than it is most likely that the dinosaur was a meal to a predator.

Fossils that are in array but are divided clearly at a section suggests that land moved. Possibly earthquake or Pangea took place.

A frame hanging on a wall is held by two cables. The tension in each cable is 30 N, and the cables make an angle of 45° with the
Vesna [10]

Answer:

(D) 42.4N

Explanation:

Since the frame is at rest, the net force acting on it must be 0. There are three forces acting on it: the gravity and the opposing forces of the two cables.

Since the gravity is a vertical force, we are only interested in the vertical components of the remaining forces. The net force equation is

F_net = 0 = F_g -2 * F_y

The vertical force of one cable (using the information in the drawing) is:

F_y = 30N * sin 45 deg = 21.21N

Now the weight can be determined:

0 = F_g - 2 * F_y

F_g= 2 * F_y = 2 * 21.21N = 42.4N

The weight of the frame is about 42.4N.
