If the springs are connected together from end to end, they are arranged in series. For springs in series, the forces are additive. 

Spring 1: F1 = k1(Δx1)
Spring 2: F2 = k2(Δx2)
Spring 1: F3 = k3(Δx3)

Total Force = k1(Δx1)+k2(Δx2)+k3(Δx3)
Total Force = (k1+k2+k3)(Δx,total)

The spring constants are added together and multiplied with the total length of elongation to find the total force acting on it.

<u>Point of correction</u>

Density of water is 1000 Kg/m^{3} not 100 as provided, it may be typo

Answer:

0.0066 m^{3}

Explanation:

Buoyant force of water (Weight difference) is 96-30=66 N

Buoyancy force=\rho_w g v where \rho_w is the density of water, g is acceleration due to gravity whose value is provided as 10 m/s^{2} and v is the volume of the body

hence substituting 66 for buoyancy force, 1000 Kg/m^{3} for density of water and finding the unknown value of volume, v

66=1000*10*v

v=0.0066 m^{3}

A cyclist travels at an average rate of 10 m/s. How long will it take him to travel a distance of 10 km at this rate?
marin [14]
V = 10 m/s
S=10km = 10000m
t = ?
v = S/t
t = S/v
t = 10000 m / 10 m/s
t ≈ 1000s = 16,67 min

Three. Grams of the same substance in different phases are stored in three different containers. Each container is barely large
zzz [600]

Complete question is;

Three grams of the same substance in different phases are stored in three different containers. Each container is barely large enough to hold the substance. Which statement can be known about the behavior of the atoms in each container?

A) The atoms in the solid would be moving vigorously around the container.

B) The atoms in the liquid would be vibrating in position.

C) The atoms in the solid would be vibrating in position.

D) The atoms in the gas would be moving slowly around the container.

Answer:

Option C - The atoms in the solid would be vibrating in position

Explanation:

Option A is wrong because the molecules in solids are held together by strong inter molecular forces and therefore can't move about freely but instead will vibrate in their position.

Option B is wrong because the atoms in liquid are more free than those in solids. Thus they will not have room to vibrate.

Option C is correct from the explanation from option A.

Option D is wrong because the atom of the gas would be very loose and free and would therefore be moving very fast around the container

What is the total current for the circuit? (must include unit - A) I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:2 amperes

Explanation:

Voltage=120v

Total resistance=15+15+30

Total resistance=60 ohms

Current=voltage ➗ resistance

Current=120 ➗ 60

Current=2 amperes
