Answer:
a)1815Joules b) 185Joules
Explanation:
Hooke's law states that the extension of a material is directly proportional to the applied force provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded. Mathematically;
F = ke where;
F is the applied force
k is the elastic constant
e is the extension of the material
From the formula, k = F/e
F1/e1 = F2/e2
If a force of 60N causes an extension of 0.5m of the string from its equilibrium position, the elastic constant of the spring will be ;
k = 60/0.5
k = 120N/m
a) To get the work done in stretching the spring 5.5m from its position,
Work done by the spring = 1/2ke²
Given k = 120N/m, e = 5.5m
Work done = 1/2×120×5.5²
Work done = 60× 5.5²
Work done = 1815Joules
b) work done in compressing the spring 1.5m from its equilibrium position will be gotten using the same formula;
Work done = 1/2ke²
Work done =1/2× 120×1.5²
Works done = 60×1.5²
Work done = 135Joules
Answer:
B. Marginal cost equals long-run average total cost.
Explanation:
The zero profit condition implies that entry continues until all firms are producing at minimum long run average total cost. Since the marginal cost curve cuts the long run average total cost curve at its minimum point, marginal cost and long run average total cost must be equal in long run equilibrium.
Answer:
3335400 N/m² or 483.75889 lb/in²
Explanation:
g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²
A = Area = 1.5 cm²
m = Mass of woman = 51 kg
F = Force = mg
When we divide force by area we get pressure
The pressure exerted on the floor is 3335400 N/m² or 483.75889 lb/in²
The tangent looks good.
The curve is a bit crooked, at the 0.9 and 1.
But overall, cool graph.
