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.

Which statements describe a situation in which work is being done? Check all that apply.
slava [35]

The work is being done in following cases:

A mover carries a box up a flight of stairs.

A mover carries a box across a room.

Wind blows a pool chair across the yard.

A weightlifter lifts a barbell off the ground.

These are the only cases in which work is being done. The Formula of Work is:

Work= Force applied x Distance moved.

In all of these cases force is being applied and the object on which the force is being applied move in a horizontal or Vertical direction.  Thus Work is done !

The relationship between power, force, and velocity is ______?
Kipish [7]

Answer: P = FV becuase all of them are equal in strength.

Explanation: In the straight forward cases where a constant force moves an object at constant velocity, the power is just P = Fv. In a more general case where the velocity is not in the same direction as the force, then the scalar product offorce and velocity must be used. P = Power, F = Force, V = Velocity.

A ball of mass m is thrown into the air in a 45° direction of the horizon, after 3 seconds the ball is seen in a direction 30° f
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

Velocity (magnitude) is 98.37 m/s

Explanation:

We use the vertical component of the initial velocity, which is:

v_{0y}=v_0*sin(45)=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0

Using kinematics expression of vertical velocity (in y direction) for an accelerated motion (constant acceleration, which is gravity):

v_{y}=v_{0y}+a*t=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0-9.8t

Now we need to find v_y as a function of v_0. We use the horizontal velocity, which is always the same as follow:

v_x=v_0cos(45\º)=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0=v_{t=3}*cos(30\º) \\

We know the angle at 3 seconds:

v_y(t=3)=v_{t=3}*sin(30\º)\\v_{t=3}=\frac{v_y}{sin(30\º)}

Substitute  v_{t=3} in  v_x and then solve for  v_y

\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0=\frac{v_y*cos(30\º) }{sin(30\º)} \\v_y=\frac{\sqrt{6} }{6}v_0

With this expression we go back to the kinematic equation and solve it for initial speed

\frac{\sqrt{6} }{6} v_0 =\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}v_0-29.4\\v_0(\frac{\sqrt{6}-3\sqrt{2}}{6} )=-29.4\\v_0=98.37 m/s

14) What is the velocity of a wave 5.35 x 10 cm long with a frequency of 16kHz
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

wavelength= 5.35×10cm=0.535m

f= 16000hz

v= wavelength × f= 0.535×16000=8560m/sec
