If you are driving at a constant velocity of 5 m/s what is your<br> acceleration?
Paraphin [41]

"Acceleration" means the rate at which velocity is changing.

If velocity is constant, then it isn't changing.

If velocity isn't changing, then acceleration is <em>zero</em>.

4000 J of heat energy is applied to a 70 g sample of water initially at 35oC. What is the final temperature of the sample?
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

48.7°C

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

Quantity of heat = 4000J

mass of sample= 70g= 0.07kg

initial temperature T1=35°C

Water has a specific heat capacity of 4182 J/kg°C

Required

The final temperature T2

Step two:

Q= mcΔT

4000= 0.07*4182(T2-35)

4000=292.74(T2-35)

4000=292.74T2-10245.9

collect like terms

4000+10245.9=292.74T2

14245.9= 292.74T2

divide both sides by 292.74

T2= 14245.9/ 292.74

T2=48.7°C

A 10cm spring is hung from a clamp stand. With 1N of force it measures 12.2cm long and with 3N of force it measures 16.4cm long.
solmaris [256]

Answer:

0.48 N/cm

Explanation:

The original length is 10cm so with a force of 10cm, the extension will be 12.2-10=2.2 cm when force of 1N is exerted. Similarly, with a force of 3N, the extension is 16.4-10=6.4cm

The slope will be given by change in force/ change in extension and this is equivalent to the stiffness.

Change in force is 3-1=2 N

Change in exgension is 6.4-2.2=4.2 cm

The slope will be 2/4.2=0.4761904761904 N/cm

Rounded off, the slope is 0.48 N/cm and this is the stiffness of the spring.
