Answer:
8 N
Explanation:
Using the equation F=ma (F: force/ m: mass in kg/ a: acceleration),
F = (800/1000)(10)
F = 8 N
Answer:
100 Watts
Explanation:
<u>These equations are needed to work out the answer:</u>
- power= work done/ time taken
- work done= force* distance
- force= mass* acceleration
force: 10 kg* 2m/s= 20
work done: 20* 10m=200
power: 200/2=100
Answer: The spring constant is K=392.4N/m
Explanation:
According to hook's law the applied force F will be directly proportional to the extension e produced provided the spring is not distorted
The force F=ke
Where k=spring constant
e= Extention produced
h=2m
Given that
e=20cm to meter 20/100= 0.2m
m=100g to kg m=100/1000= 0.1kg
But F=mg
Ignoring air resistance
assuming g=9.81m/s²
Since the compression causes the plastic ball to poses potential energy hence energy stored in the spring
E=1/2ke²=mgh
Substituting our values to find k
First we make k subject of formula
k=2mgh/e²
k=2*0.1*9.81*2/0.1²
K=3.921/0.01
K=392.4N/m
