Answer:

0.1 N

Explanation:

Considering the relationship between force,

spring constant and extension as defined by Hook's law

The force F=xk as from Hooke's law where F is the force of the spring, k is spring constant and x is extension or compression. Substituting 2 N/m for k and 5cm which is equivalent to 0.05 m for extention x then the force will be

F=2*0.05=0.1 N

Which statement most accurately describes the second law of thermodynamics?
balandron [24]

Answer:

Energy cannot be changed from one form to another without a loss of usable energy

Explanation:

Second law of thermodynamics states that the total entropy or the randomness of the system remains constant over time.  It also states that the net entropy will remain the same or it will increase.

Entropy of a system is given by heat absorbed divided by temperature. It is given by :

\Delta S=\dfrac{\Delta Q}{T}

So, the correct option is (A) "Energy cannot be changed from one form to another without a loss of usable energy".

One of the foci for the moon's orbit would be the
suter [353]
The question is oversimplified, and pretty sloppy.

Relative to the Earth . . .
The Moon is in an elliptical orbit around us, with a period of
27.32... days, and with the Earth at one focus of the ellipse.

Relative to the Sun . . .
The Moon is in an elliptical orbit around the Sun, with a period
of 365.24... days, and with the Sun at one focus of the ellipse,
and the Moon itself makes little dimples or squiggles in its orbit
on account of the gravitational influence of the nearby Earth.

I'm sorry if that seems complicated.  You know that motion is
always relative to something, and the solar system is not simple.

How are the spiral arms of the milky way detected?
Step2247 [10]
The spiral structure emerges when galactic clusters (open), H II regions and O & B type stars (young stars) are used as tracers. We know this to be true as other pinwheel galaxies exhibit the same patterns across these tracers as in the milky way.
