Additional Work done to stretch the spring 0.4m is 6.4J

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u></u>

Given -

Work done to stretch a spring, W1 = 8J

Distance , d = 0.5m

Distance2, x = 0.4m

Work done 2, W2 = ?

Using Hooke's law,

Work done = k x

where k is spring constant

For distance 0.5m :

8 J = k X 0.5m

k = 8/0.5 = 16 J/m

For distance 0.4m:

W2 = 16 X 0.4 J

W2 = 6.4J

Additional Work done to stretch the spring 0.4m is 6.4J

A car travels 8km in 7 minutes. Find the speed of the car.
AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

42.6083 mi/h

Explanation:

Given: A car travels 8km in 7 minutes.

To find: Find the speed of the car.

Formula: Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}

Solution: Since the formula for the speed of an object (which is the car) is speed = distance ÷ time, divide the distance (8km) by the time (7min)

Speed = 42.6083 miles per hour

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

133.62 kmh.

Explanation:

Time provided = 3.25 hours.

Distance to be covered 300 km

Times spent in first  100 km = 1 hour

Time spent in next 43 km

= 43 / 40 = 1.075 hours

Total time spent = 2.075 hours

Total distance covered = 143 km

Distance remaining = 300 - 143

=157 km .

Time remaining = 3.25 - 2.075

= 1.175

Speed required = Distance remaining / time remaining

= 157 / 1.175

= 133.62 kmh.

An electroscope is a simple device consisting of a metal ball that is attached by a conductor to two thin leaves of metal foil p
baherus [9]

Answer:

the electroscope separate  by the presence of charge carriers

Explanation:

Metal bodies are characterized by having free (mobile) electrons. In the electroscope the plates are in balance; when the external metal ball is touched, a charge is introduced into the device, when the body that touched the ball is separated, an excess charge remains. This charge, being a metal, is distributed over the entire surface, giving a uniform density and an electric force of repulsion is created between the two charged sheets, which tends to separate the sheets. This force is counteracted by the tension component as the sheets are separated at a given angle, the separation reaches the point where

                  Fe - Tx = 0

                  Fe = Tx

In summary, the electroscope separate its leaves by the presence of charge carriers
