Answer:

K=6\ N/m

Explanation:

<u>Force Constant of a Spring</u>

The force F applied to a spring produces a stretching distance x. These variables are linearly related as expressed by Hook's law:

F=K.x

If we could measure the distance a spring stretches when applying a known force, we'd be able to find the value of K. The experiment stated in the question places some mass of a known weight of 96 N that produced a stretching distance of 16 m. Knowing both variables, we can solve the above equation for K

\displaystyle K= \frac{F}{x}=\frac{96\ N}{16\ m}=6\ N/m

\boxed{K=6\ N/m}

A moving rope (parallel to the slope) is used to pull skiers up the mountain. If the slope of the hill is 37" and friction is ne
Charra [1.4K]

Since rope is parallel to the inclined plane so here we can say that net force parallel to the person which is pulling upwards must counterbalance the component of weight of the person.

Now here we will do the components of the weight of the person

given that weight of the person = 500 N

now its components are

W_x = 500 cos37

W_y = 500 sin37

now here as we can say that one of the component is balanced here by the normal force perpendicular to plane

while the other component of the weight is balanced by the force applied on the rope

So here the force applied on the rope will be given as

F = W_y = 500 sin37

F = 300 N

so it apply 300 N force along the inclined plane

Determine the maximum theoretical speed that may be achieved over a distance of 66 m by a car starting from rest, knowing that t
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

v=32.49 m/s

Explanation:

Given that

Distance ,d= 66 m

Initial speed of the car ,u = 0 m/s

Coefficient of friction ,μ = 0.8

Lets take the total mass of the car = m

The acceleration of the car is given as

a = μ g                               ( g= 10 m/s² )

Now by putting the values in the above equation we get

a= 0.8 x 10 m/s²

a= 8 m/s²

We know that ,final speed is given as

v²= u ²+ 2 a d

Now putting the value

v²=0² + 2 x 8 x 66

v²= 1056

v=32.49 m/s

Big bang theorists believe that the universe is expanding and will eventually contract.
Zina [86]

The statement ‘Big bang theorists believe that the universe is expanding and will eventually contract’ is false. The answer is letter B. The big bang theory suggests that the origin of the universe began with that exploded and expanded. It also states that the universe began in a single form of high condensed reactive matter and exploded forming the galaxies, planets, stars and other celestial bodies.
