Answer:

2.96 cm

Explanation:

By Hook's law

Force(F) = Spring constant(k) × Extension(d)

 F = k × d

Force is the weight of the object, F = W = mg

So we get, mg = kd ⇒ m ∝ d

                                   2.5 ∝ 1.68  --------------(1)

                                   4.4 ∝ d'      --------------(2)

From (1) & (2),     4.4/2.5 = d'/1.68

                                   d' = 2.96 cm ⇒ the required extension.

How much work does the electric field do in moving a proton from a point with a potential of +125 v to a point where it is -55 v
777dan777 [17]
The work W done by the electric field in moving the proton is equal to the difference in electric potential energy of the proton between its initial location and its final location, therefore:
W= qV_i - qV_f
where q is the charge of the proton, q=1 e = 1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C, with e being the elementary charge, and V_i = +125 V and V_f = -55 V are the initial and final voltage.

Substituting, we get (in electronvolts):
W=e(125 V-(-55 V))=180 eV
and in Joule:
W=(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19})(125 V-(-55V))=2.88 \cdot 10^{-17}J

What did antoine lavoisier contribute to the atomic theory
gregori [183]

Explanation:

Antoine lavoisier is most famous for his role in  discovering of oxygen. He recognized and name two important element oxygen(1778) and hydrogen(1779).

In a chemical reaction, Lavoisier observed the mass is retained. A chemical reaction's total mass of the products will always be the same as the total mass of the reactant materials used in the reaction. His results led to one of the basic laws of chemical behavior: the law of material preservation, which states that matter is preserved in a chemical reaction.

Describe the process of sexual reproduction in terms of the life cycle of cells.
umka2103 [35]
The first growth phase (G1): During the G1 stage, the cell doubles in size and doubles the number of organelles.

The synthesis phase (S): The DNA is replicated during this phase. In other words, an identical copy of all the cell’s DNA is made. This ensures that each new cell has a set of genetic material identical to that of the parental cell. This process is called DNA replication.

The second growth phase (G2): Proteins are synthesized that will help the cell divide. At the end of interphase, the cell is ready to enter mitosis.
