In a room that is 2.41 m high, a spring (unstrained length = 0.30 m) hangs from the ceiling. A board whose length is 1.86 m is a

ttached to the free end of the spring. The board hangs straight down, so that its 1.86-m length is perpendicular to the floor. The weight of the board (104 N) stretches the spring so that the lower end of the board just extends to, but does not touch, the floor. What is the spring constant of the spring?

Answer:

416 N\m

Explanation:

Weight of board

W=ma\\\Rightarrow W=104\ N

Length the spring can stretch = Total height of room - (unstrained length of spring + Length of Board)

2.41-(0.3+1.86)\\\Rightarrow 2.41-2.16=0.25\ m

From Hooke's law

W=kx\\\Rightarrow k=\frac{W}{x}\\\Rightarrow k=\frac{104}{0.25}\\\Rightarrow k=416\ N\m

The spring constant is 416 N/m

Four resistors (67 ohm, 83 ohm, 433 ohm, and 309 ohm in that order) are connected in series to a 7.92 V battery of negligible in
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

.737 v

Explanation:

Since they are in series....they all have the same current running through them.....find the total resistance to calculate the current:

R = 67 + 83 + 433 + 309 = 892 ohm

V/R = current = 7.92 / 892 = 8.87 mAmps

Now the voltage across ecah resistor is   I R

 for the second one   8.87 ma * 83 ohm = V = .737 V
