A person wants to determine the spring constant of an exercise stretch cord. He pulls the cord with a force probe that exerts a

70-N force on the cord, causing it to stretch 20cm. Using the Hooke's law find the spring constant of the cord. Assume that the stretch does not exceed the elastic range of the material.

Answer:

350 N/M

Explanation:

  • According to Hook's law Force is directly proportional to  extended length in a substance behind elastic region.

Here for a force of 70 N a elongation of 20 cm is observed

⇒

  • Force ∝ extension

force = k × extension

k =\frac{force}{extension}

extension = 20 cm = 0.2 m.

k = \frac{70}{0.2} = 350 N/M

Answer:

350 N/m

Explanation:

If we are assuming the stretch does not exceed the elastic range of the material, then by Hooke's law the spring constant of the cord is simply the ratio between the force 70N acting on the cord to stretch 20cm or 0.2m

k = 70 / 0.2 = 350 N/m

The spring constant is 350 N/m

The average radial velocity of galaxies in the Hercules cluster is 10,800 km/s. (a) using H0 = 73 km/s/Mpc, find the distance to
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a) 147.95 Mpc

Explanation:

Using Hubble's formula

v = H_od

where;

v = radical velocity

H_o = Hubble's constant

d = distance

Given that:

The average radial velocity of galaxies in the Hercules cluster v =  10,800 km/s

Also using H_o = 73 km/s/ Mpc ; we  make distance d the subject of the formula:

Then distance d can be written as:

d = \frac{v}{H_o}

d = \frac{10,800  \ km/s}{73 \ km/s/Mpc}

d = 147.95 Mpc

b)

Now, if the Hubble constant had a smaller value, then for a  given velocity the distance to the galaxy will increase because distance d is inversely proportional to H_o

i.e  

d  ∝ \frac{1}{H_0}

What is the mirror formula for curved mirrors
Reika [66]
The mirror formula for curved mirrors is:
\frac{1}{f}= \frac{1}{d_o}+ \frac{1}{d_i}
where
f is the focal length of the mirror
d_o is the distance of the object from the mirror
d_i is the distance of the image from the mirror

The sign convention that should be used in order to find the correct values is the following:
- f: positive if the mirror is concave, negative if the mirror is convex
- d_i: positive if the image is real (located on the same side of the object), negative if it is virtual (located on the opposite side of the mirror)

PLS I NEED HELP ASAAP​
Lerok [7]

Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The Equation represents the displacement of the object which is represented by x

x=t-t^2

so, x_0  means when time is zero so we replace t with zero in the equation,

x_0=(0)-(0)^2\\x_0=0

now for v which is velocity we need to differentiate the function as the formula for velocity is rate of change of displacement over time so we derivate the equation once and get,

v=1-2t\\

now for  v_0  we insert t = 0 and get

v_0=1-2(0)\\v_0=1

now for a which is acceleration the formula of acceleration is rate of change of velocity over time, so we differentiate the the equation of v(velocity) once or the equation of x(displacement) twice so now we get,

a=-2

so Option A is your answer.

Remember derivative of a constant is always zero because a constant value has no rate of change has its a constant hence the derivative is 0
