The work required to strecth the spring is about 2.0 Joules

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Let's recall Elastic Potential Energy formula as follows:

\boxed{E_p = \frac{1}{2}k x^2}

<em>where:</em>

<em>Ep = elastic potential energy ( J )</em>

<em>k = spring constant ( N/m )</em>

<em>x = spring extension ( compression ) ( m )</em>

Let us now tackle the problem!

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

spring constant = k = 2500 N/m

extension = x = 4.00 cm = 4.00 × 10⁻² m

<u>Asked:</u>

work required = W = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<em>We will calculate the </em><em>work</em><em> required to stretch the spring as follows:</em>

W = E_p

W = \frac{1}{2} k x^2

W = \frac{1}{2} \times 2500 \times ( 4.00 \times 10^{-2} )^2

W = 1250 \times ( 16.00 \times 10^{-4} )

W = 20000 \times 10^{-4}

W = 2.0 \times 10^4 \times 10^{-4}

W = 2.0 \texttt{ J}

\texttt{ }

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

The work required to strecth the spring is about 2.0 Joules

W = 1/2k*x^2.

k = spring constant = 2500 n/m.
x = distance = 4 cm = 0.04m (convert to same units).

W = 1/2(2500)(0.04)^2 = 2J.

Plates move apart at ____ boundaries.
Keith_Richards [23]
<span>The correct answer is C. divergent. Divergent boundaries are something like lines found between two tectonic plates. These constructive boundaries, or extensional boundaries, are formed and exist between two tectonic plates that move away from each other. Convergent would thus be where they meet. This is all according to the tectonic theory.</span>

Find the velocity (in m/s) of a proton that has a momentum of 4.96 X 10^-19 kg.m/s.
kramer

Answer:

The velocity of the proton is 2.965*10^{8} \frac{m}{s}

Explanation:

The momentum of a particle is defined as the product of its mass by its velocity and we can calculate it using the following formula:

p=m*v Equation (1)

Where:

p: Is the momentum in kg*m/s

m: Is mass of the particle in kg

v: Is the velocity of the particle in m/s

Data known:

m= 1,6726 × 10^–27 kg : mass of the proton

p= 4.96 X 10^-19 kg.m/s.

We replace this data in the Equation (1):

4,96*10^{-19} =1.6726*10^{-27} *vv=\frac{4.9*10^{-19} }{1.6726*10^{-27} }

v=(\frac{4.96}{1.6726} )*(10^{27-19} )

v=2,965*10^{8} m/s

Answer: The velocity of the proton is 2.965*10^{8} \frac{m}{s}
