A dart is loaded into a spring-loaded toy dart gun by pushing the spring in by a distance d. For the next loading, the spring is

compressed a distance 8d. How much work is required to load the second dart compared to that required to load the first?

Answer:

the work required for the loading of second dart is 64 times greater as work required for loading the first dart.

Explanation:

k = spring constant of the spring loaded toy dart gun

x₁ = compression of spring to load the first dart = d

x₂ = compression of spring to load the second dart = 8 d

E₁ = Work required to load the first dart

E₂ = Work required to load the second dart

Work required to load the first dart is given as

E₁ = (0.5) k x₁² = (0.5) k d²

Work required to load the second dart is given as

E₂ = (0.5) k x₂² = (0.5) k (8d)² = (64) (0.5) k d²

E₂ = 64 E₁

So the work required for the loading of second dart is 64 times greater as work required for loading the first dart

IP The x and y components of a vector r⃗ are rx = 16 m and ry = -8.5 m , respectively
fiasKO [112]

as it is given that

r_x = 16 m

r_y = -8.5 m

now we will have

\vec r = 16 \hat i - 8.5 \hat j

now the magnitude of this vector is given as

|r| = \sqrt{16^2 + 8.5^2}

|r| = 18 m

now to find the direction we can use

tan\theta = \frac{r_y}{r_x}

tan\theta = \frac{-8.5}{16}

\theta = tan^{-1}(-0.53)

\theta = - 28^0

Two metal spheres are hanging from nylon threads. When you bring the spheres close to each other, they tend to attract. Based on
Tamiku [17]

Explanation:

In the given question, the two metal spheres were hanged with the nylon thread.

When these two spheres were brought close together, they attracted each other. The attraction between these spheres is the result of the opposite charges between them.

The possible ways by which these two metal spheres can be charged are by induction that is touching the metal or by rubbing them.

During induction, the same charges are transferred to each sphere. In this case, either both the spheres will be negatively charged or positively charged.

It is not possible that after the sphere touch each other they will cling together because the same charge repels each other and during touching, if one sphere is neutral, then the charged one will transfer the same charge. And as we know that same charge repel each other therefore they will repel each other.

A 10 ohms resistor is powered by a 5-V battery. The current flowing<br> through the source is:
mario62 [17]
  • Resistance=R=10ohm
  • Voltage=V=5V
  • Current=I

Applying ohm's law

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{V}{I}=R

\\ \sf\longmapsto I=\dfrac{V}{R}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I=\dfrac{5}{10}

\\ \sf\longmapsto I=0.5A
