We know that force <span>for a linear spring is equal to F=kx. Since energy is the potential to do work, and the spring is assumed to be perfectly elastic. Work can be written as:

W = F (integral sign) d</span>x

Therefore, 

<span>W=k(Δx<span>)^2 / 2
W = F </span></span>Δx / 2
<span>W = 120 (2.0) / 2
W = 120

How does the water cycle affect weather and climate?
Drupady [299]
The water cycle has to do with precipitation, evaporation, condensation, transpiration, runoff, and many other processes which is the form of weather like storms, tornadoes, hurricanes, etc. There's many different kinds of precipitation and every one is different and that will affect the climate. Moisture and condensation will also affect the climate and the weather.

Hope this helps you!

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

(a) a = 56.4 m/s², his acceleration a, in multiples of gravity g, is 5.76 g

(b) a = -201.43 m/s², his deceleration -a, in multiples of gravity g, is -20.56 g

Explanation:

(a)

When moving upwards, the initial velocity, u = 0 (he accelerated from rest)

When moving upwards, the final velocity, v = 282 m/s

time of  motion during this acceleration, t = 5 s

His acceleration is calculated as;

v = u + at

282 = 0 + 5a

a = 282 / 5

a = 56.4 m/s²

Ratio of his acceleration, a to gravity, g = a/g = 56.4 / 9.8 = 5.76

a = 5.76 g

(b)

When moving downwards, the initial velocity, u = 282 m/s

When moving downwards, the final velocity, v = 0 (he was brought to rest)

time of  motion during this deceleration, t = 1.4 s

His deceleration is calculated as;

v = u + at

0 = 282 + 1.4a

1.4a = -282

a = -282 / 1.4

a = -201.43 m/s²

Ratio of his deceleration, -a to gravity, g = -a/g = 201.43 / 9.8 = 20.56

a = -20.56 g

A uniform crate with a mass of 22 kg must be moved up along the 15° incline without tipping. The force P is horizontal. Determin
Paul [167]

Answer:

F_x=208.25\ N

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a crate is 22 kg

It moved up along the 15 degrees incline without tipping.

We need to find the corresponding magnitude of force P. The force P is acting in horizontal direction.

It means that the horizontal component of force is given by :

F_x=F\cos\theta\\\\F_x=mg\cos\theta\\\\F_x=22\times 9.8\times \cos(15)\\\\F_x=208.25\ N

So, the horizontal component of force is 208.25 N.

What is the average velocity of a train moving along a straight track if its displacement is 192 m was during a time period of 8
Alex

Answer:

The average velocity of a train moving along a straight track if its displacement is 192 m was during a time period of 8.0 s is 24 \frac{m}{s}.

Explanation:

Velocity ​​is a physical quantity that expresses the relationship between the space traveled by an object and the time used for it. Then, the average velocity relates the change in position to the time taken to effect that change.

velocity=\frac{displacement}{time}

Velocity considers the direction in which an object moves, so it is considered a vector magnitude.

In this case, the displacement is 192 m and the time period is 8 s. Replacing:

velocity=\frac{192 m}{8 s}

Solving:

velocity= 24 \frac{m}{s}

<em><u>The average velocity of a train moving along a straight track if its displacement is 192 m was during a time period of 8.0 s is 24 </u></em>\frac{m}{s}<em><u>.</u></em>
