Explanation:
Given that,
Weight of the friend, W = 600 N
When the friend sits on the metal frame it bends downward 4 cm, we can say that the compression in the it is 4 cm or 0.04 m
To find,
Spring constant for this chair or k
Solve :
The weight of an object is equal to the force exerted by the gravitational force, F = 600 N
According to Hooke's law, the force exerted by the spring is given by :
F = kx
k is the spring constant


k = 15000 N/m
Therefore, the spring constant of the spring is 15000 N/m.
Answer:
a. 45 N. / b. 0.08 m/s^2. / c. 102 N
F = ma
F = 15(3)
F = 45 newtons
F/m = a
20/250 = a
0.08 m/s^2 = a
R = ma
R =1.5(68)
102 N
Answer:

Explanation:
The two cars are under an uniform linear motion. So, the distance traveled by them is given by:

is the same for both cars when the second one catches up with the first. If we take as reference point the initial position of the second car, we have:

We have
. Thus, solving for t:

Explanation:
Whenever an object is at its highest point, the velocity and acceleration of the object is zero.
If each side is 0.1 feet extra,
The volume will be 5.1*2.1*1.1= about 11.781.
