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.

A racecar is equipped with a computer that records the reading on its speedometer every second during a race. If you graph this
Westkost [7]
Since the device is a speedometer, the data it read is the speed of the racecar. Data recording involving time usually uses time as the independent variable. It was also said in the problem that it records the speed every second which shows that the time interval is constant. This means that only other data, the car's speed, is the dependent variable.

If a person (weighs 70kg) jumped of a moving car (at 100km/h) and fell on asphalt what is the amount of force applyied to his bo
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

The amount of force applied to his body is 1944.44 N

<em>The chances of the person dying is very high owing to the high impact force with which the person would experience when he or she lands on the asphalt road due to the jump out of the moving car.</em>

Explanation:

We all know that,

F = Ma where,

F = Force

M = weight of the person

a = acceleration or velocity of the moving car

Therefore;

F = { 70 x (100 x 1000) } / [3600]

= [7 000 000] / 3600

= <u>1944.44 N</u>

What does the force of gravity between two objects depend on?
lawyer [7]

-- The equal, mutual forces of gravity between two objects depend on the product
of the two masses ... it doesn't matter whether the masses are equal or there's
one huge mass and one minuscule mass. It's the product that counts.

-- The force also depends on the distance between the centers of the two objects.
