<span>To begin, the mouse walks from 5 to 12 cm, for a displacement of 7 cm. Next, it walks 8 cm in the opposite direction, for a total displacement of (7 + [-8]) or (-1) cm. This leaves the mouse on 4 cm, and then it walks from there to the 7cm location, for a displacement of 7-4 or +3 cm. Adding 3cm to -1cm gives a final displacement of +2cm.</span>

A(n) 60.3 g ball is dropped from a height of 53.7 cm above a spring of negligible mass. The ball compresses the spring to a maxi
Feliz [49]

Answer:

271.862 N/m

Explanation:

From Hook's Law,

mgh = 1/2ke²............... Equation 1

Where

m = mass of the ball, g = acceleration due to gravity, k = spring constant, e = extension, h = height fro which the ball was dropped.

Making k the subject of the equation,

k =2mgh/k²....................... Equation 2

Note: The potential energy of the ball is equal to the elastic potential energy of the spring.

Given: m = 60.3 g = 0.0603 kg, g = 9.8 m/s², e = 4.68317 cm = 0.0468317 m, h = 53.7 cm = 0.537 m

Substitute into equation 2

k = 2(0.0603)(9.8)(0.537)/0.048317²

k = 0.6346696/0.0023345

k = 271.862 N/m

An unbalanced force gives a 2.00 kg mass an acceleration of 5.00 m/s? What is the force applied to the object?​
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

10N

Explanation:

Equation: ΣF = ma

Fapp = ma

Fapp = (2kg)(5m/s^2)    (im guessing you mean 5.00 m/s^2 not m/s)

Fapp = 10*kg*m/s^2

Fapp = 10N
