Answer:

The spring constant required = 949.2 N/m

Explanation:

The energy stored in the spring is converted to kinetic energy of the projectiles fired.

Energy stored in spring's = kx²/2

Kinetic energy of bullets = mv²/2

k = spring constant = ?

x = maximum compression of the spring = 8 cm = 0.08 m

m = mass of projectiles fired = 3.0 g = 0.003 kg

v = velocity of projectiles fired = 45.0 m/s

kx² = mv²

k (0.08²) = 0.003 (45²) = 6.075

k = 949.2 N/m

The spring constant required = 949.2 N/m

Two long, straight wires are separated by 0.120 m. The wires carry currents of 11 A in opposite directions, as the drawing indic
rewona [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field is 1.83 x 10^{-5} T.

Explanation:

The flow of an electric current in a straight wire induces magnetic field around the wire. When current is flowing through two wires in the same direction, a force of attraction exists between the wires. But if the current flows in opposite directions, the force of repulsion is felt by the wires.

In the given question, the direction of flow of current through the wires is opposite, thus both wires applies the same field on each other. The result to repulsion between them.

The magnetic field (B) between the given wires can be determined by:

B = \frac{U_{o}I }{2\pi r}

where: I is the current, r is the distance between the wires and U_{0} is the magnetic field constant.

But, I = 11 A, r = 0.12 m and U_{0} = 4\pi x 10^{-7} Tm/A

So that;

B = \frac{4\pi *10^{-7}*11 }{2\pi *0.12}

   = 1.8333 x 10^{-5}

B = 1.83 x 10^{-5} T

What is the medium through which sound travels inside a bird’s body? (HINT: three-letter word)
Korvikt [17]

The medium through which sound travels inside a bird’s body is the air. This is further explained below.

<h3>What is Air?</h3>

Generally, Air is simply defined as the invisible combination of gases, and this gas exists around the Earth.

In conclusion, Sound wave allows birds to communicate.

If the action force is the swimmer pushing water in the leftward direction, what is the reaction force?
Sphinxa [80]
  • According to Newton's Third Law of Motion, to every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction; action and reaction act on different bodies.
  • Here, the action force is in the leftward direction, so the reaction will be in the opposite direction.
  • If the action force is the swimmer pushing water in the leftward direction, then the reaction force is in the rightward direction.
  • And the reaction force will be given by the water on the swimmer.

<u>Answer</u><u>:</u>

<u>The </u><u>reaction </u><u>force </u><u>is </u><u>the </u><u>water </u><u>pushing </u><u>the </u><u>swimmer </u><u>in </u><u>the </u><u>rightward </u><u>direction</u><u>.</u>

Hope you could get an idea from here.
