Answer:
The work done in winding the spring gets stored in the wound up spring in the form of elastic potential energy (i.e potential energy due to change in shape). ... During this process, the potential energy stored in it gets converted to kinetic energy. This turns the wheels of the toy car.
Explanation:
Answer:
Explanation:
Normal length of spring = 28.3 cm
stretched length of spring = 38.2 cm
length of extension = 38.2 - 28.3 = 9.9 cm
= 9.9 x 10⁻² m
force applied to stretch = .55 x 9.8 ( mg )
= 5.39 N
Force constant = force applied / extension
= 5.39 / 9.9 x 10⁻²
= .5444 x 10² N /m
= 54.44 N/m
Answer:
The internet is most useful to them because they use it to communicate.
Explanation:
If I were to send a message to my brother in Florida, through the internet, while I'm in Pennsylvania he would get it in minutes. On the other hand if I were going to meet him and then explain what I wanted to tell him in person it would take a much longer time.
Answer:
T1 = 130N, T2 = 370N
Explanation:
In order for the system to be at rest, the sum of all forces must be zero and the torque around a point on the beam must be zero.
1. forces:
Let tension in rope 1 be T1 and in rope 2 be T2:
ma = T1 + T2 - 100N - 400N = 0
(1) T1 + T2 = 500N
2. torque around the center point of the beam:
τ = r x F = 5*T1 + 3*400N - 5*T2 = 0
(2) T1 - T2 = -240N
Solving both equations:
T1 = 130N
T2 = 370N
<span>The correct option is C. Energy cannot be created or destroyed. This statement is known as law of conservation of energy, and it implies that whenever a certain form of energy does change, the loss of this form of energy must have converted into an another type of energy. A typical example is an object falling to the ground: initially, the object has gravitational potential energy. As the object falls down, it loses potential energy (since its altitude from the grounf decreases), but it acquires kinetic energy (because its velocity increases). In this example, potential energy has converted into kinetic energy, but the total energy of the object has remained constant.</span>
