Answer: 4mm

Explanation: From Hooke's law.

Tensile force is directly proportional to the elongation

That's

F= k e , where k is constant

F/e = k

F1/e1 =F2/e2

Where e1 = 2mm

F2 =2F1 (doubled)

F1/2 = 2F1/e2

1/2 =2/e2

e2 = 4mm

Therefore when tension is doubled, the metal bar will be elongated by 4mm

If the frequency of q of a trait is 0.4, what is the frequency of p?
lianna [129]
In genetic traits, p and q represent the relative probabilities of the two alleles manifesting. If these two are the only options (ex. a dominant one and a recessive one), then the probabilities of both must sum up to 1. In this case, since we are given that q = 0.4, then p + q = 1, p + 0.4 = 1, and p = 0.6.

you are driving at 18m/s down Lyndale​ avenue. A car backs out a driveway 25 meters in front of you. You continue at that speed
zimovet [89]

Hello!

For this, first let's calculate time of stop:

t = (V - Vi) / a

Replacing:

t = (0 m/s - 18 m/s) / -5,4 m/s^2

Resolving:

t = -18 m/s / -5,4 m/s^2

t = 3,33 s + 0,25 s = 3,58 s

Now lets calculate distance traveled, with formula:

d = Vi*t + (a*t^2)/2

Replacing:

d = 18 m/s * 3,58 s + (-5,4 m/s^2 * (3,58 s)^2) /2

Resolving:

d = 64,44 m + (-34,604 m)

d = 29,83 m

Then, the vehicle will CRASH

What is the acceleration of a ball rolling down a ramp that starts from rest and travels 0.9 m in 3 s?
cupoosta [38]
Given:
u = 0, initial velocity
s 0.9 m, distance traveled.
t = 3 s, the time taken.

Let a =  the acceleration. Then
s = ut + (1/2)*a*t²
(0.9 m) = 0.5*(a m/s²)*(3 s)²
0.9 = 4.5a
a = 0.2 m/s²

Answer: 0.2 m/s²
