Your average speed was

(100 m) / (13.8 s) = 7.25 m/s .

If you finished 0.001s ahead of him, then at your average speed, that corresponds to

(7.25 m/s) x (0.001 s) = 0.00725 m

That's 7.25 millimeters ... about 0.28 of an inch !

NOTE:. I think this is only valid if your speed was a constant ~7.25 m/s all the way.

Use Hooke's Law, which states that the distance a spring stretches (or compresses) from its natural, or equilibrium, length vari
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

706.68 N

Explanation:

By Hooke's law,

F = ke

k=\dfrac{F}{e}

Using the values in the question,

k=\dfrac{265\text{ N}}{0.15 \text{ m}}=1766.7\text{ N/m}

When e = 0.4 m,

F = 1766.7\text{ N/m}\times0.4\text{ m}=706.68\text{ N}

Consider two massless springs connected in parallel. Springs 1 and 2 have spring constants k1 and k2 and are connected via a thi
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

k1 + k2

Explanation:

Spring 1 has spring constant k1

Spring 2 has spring constant k2

After being applied by the same force, it is clearly mentioned that spring are extended by the same amount i.e. extension of spring 1 is equal to extension of spring 2.

x1 = x2

Since the force exerted to each spring might be different, let's assume F1 for spring 1 and F2 for spring 2. Hence the equations of spring constant for both springs are

k1 = F1/x -> F1 =k1*x

k2 = F2/x -> F2 =k2*x

While F = F1 + F2

Substitute equation of F1 and F2 into the equation of sum of forces

F = F1 + F2

F = k1*x + k2*x

= x(k1 + k2)

Note that this is applicable because both spring have the same extension of x (I repeat, EXTENTION, not length of the spring)

Considering the general equation of spring forces (Hooke's Law) F = kx,

The effective spring constant for the system is k1 + k2

For an atom to be neutral the amount of ? and? must be equal
maks197457 [2]

Answer: Well first of all, for an Atom to be neutral, it shall have an equal number of the protons and the neutrons. So given that, the protons are able to be positively charged and since the electrons are negatively charged (Protons and Electrons are completely different from each other) then that means the Algebric are aggregated of charges because it equal to zero. So overall, the 'neutral atom' has to be neutral, and how? Protons must equal the number of electrons or else it wouldn't be considered neutral.

Hopefully this helps you very much!! :-) Have a great daayy!

choose the correct anwer 9: the range of the gravitional force is given by A: 10_2m B:10_15m C: infinite D: 10_10m​
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The answer is C

Explanation:

The magnitude of the gravitational force depends inversely on the square of the radial distance between the centers of the two masses. Thus, essentially, the force can only fall to zero, when the denominator that is r becomes infinite.

Driving Zone 7 corresponds with
stepan [7]
Your driving zone refers to the areas of space around your car, it refers to all the area around your car as far as your eyes can see. 
Each car has seven zones numbered from 1 to 7. Driving zone 7 corresponds with THE SPACE YOUR VEHICLE IS OCCUPYING. The other zones are as follows:
zone 1 = area directly infront of your car
zone 2 = your left lane
zone 3 = your right lane
zone 4 = left rear of your car
zone 5 = right rear of your car 
zone 6 = area directly behind your car.
