Answer:The time interval is always positive quantity because time always moves forward. Time can not be reversed.

Explanation:

Velocity is defined as rate of change of position nothing but the displacement. Displacement can be positive or negative.

In case of time interval, time is always a positive quantity. it is impossible to reverse the time. To obtain any displacement we need to measure the time taken. which has to be positive. It always moves forward.

You have a spring-loaded air rifle. When it is loaded, the spring is compressed 0.3 m and has a spring constant of 150 N/m. In j
Feliz [49]

The potential energy of the spring is 6.75 J

The elastic potential energy stored in the spring is given by the equation:

E= \frac{1}{2} kx^2

where;

k is the spring constant

x is the compression/stretching of the string

In this problem, we have the spring as follows:

k = 150 N/m is the spring constant

x = 0.3 m is the compression

Substituting in the equation, we get

E=\frac{1}{2} (150) (0.3)^2

E=6.75J

Therefore. the elastic potential energy stored in the spring is 6.75J .

Meg walks with a velocity of 0.9 m/s west. She does so while riding on a train that is traveling with a velocity of 2.7 m/s east
Shkiper50 [21]
<span>Velocities are vectors so we can add them!

Let's let +x be East and -x be West.

 -0.9 + 2.7 = 1.8
 
Since our answer is positive that means East so the answer is C.</span>

A worker drives a 0.562 kg spike into a rail tie with a 2.26 kg sledgehammer. The hammer hits the spike with a speed of 64.4 m/s
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of sledge hammer;

Mh =2.26 kg

Hammer speed;

Vh = 64.4 m/s

The expression fot the kinetic energy of the hammer is,

K.E(hammer) = ½Mh•Vh²

K.E(hammer) = ½ × 2.26 × 64.4²

K.E ( hammer) = 4686.52 J

If one forth of the kinetic energy is converted into internal energy, then

ΔU = ¼ × K.E(hammer)

∆U = ¼ × 4686.52

∆U = 1171.63 J

Thus, the increase in total internal energy will be 1171.63 J.

A 2.00-gram air inflated balloon is given an excess negative charge, q1 = -3.25 × 10-8 C, by rubbing it with a blanket. It is fo
Llana [10]

Answer:

The rod`s charge must be positive,  because the gravity force is pointing downwards and the electrostatic force must be pointing upwards (in order to balance the gravity force)

The charge is q_2 = 1.667 times 10^(-7) C

Explanation:

F_e = F_g

where F_g = m g and F_e= (1/4 pi e_0)*(q_1*q_2)/d^2,
