Answer:
114.44 J
Explanation:
From Hook's Law,
F = ke................. Equation 1
Where F = Force required to stretch the spring, k = spring constant, e = extension.
make k the subject of the equation
k = F/e.............. Equation 2
Given: F = 10 lb = (10×4.45) N = 44.5 N, e = 4 in = (4×0.254) = 1.016 m.
Substitute into equation 2
k = 44.5/1.016
k = 43.799 N/m
Work done in stretching the 9 in beyond its natural length
W = 1/2ke²................. Equation 3
Given: e = 9 in = (9×0.254) = 2.286 m, k = 43.799 N/m
Substitute into equation 3
W = 1/2×43.799×2.286²
W = 114.44 J
Hi there!
Question - Which of the following statements is true?
Answer - C. You are exposed to nuclear radiation every day.
Why - "radiation in the form of elementary particles emitted by an atomic nucleus, as alpha rays or gamma rays, produced by decay of radioactive substances or by nuclear fission."
Given: The number = 0.0069 that has to be expressed in scientific notation
Concept: When we express any number in scientific notation then we shall consider two points.
(i) If we shift the decimal point from left to right after first (non-zero) digit then we count the number of shifted place of decimal and write them in terms of the negative power of 10. For example, 0.004789 = 4.789 ×10⁻³
(ii) If we shift the decimal point from right to left after first (non-zero) digit from the left end then we count the number of shifted place and write then in terms of the positive power of 10. For example, 4789.24 = 4.78924 ×10⁺³ = 4.78924 ×10³ Now, we shall convert the given number 0.0069 in scientific notation
0.0069 = 6.9 ×10⁻³ because we have shifted the decimal from left to right for three places that is after digit 6.
Hence, the last option 6.9 ×10⁻³ will be the correct option.
Answer:
Each layer has its own properties, composition, and characteristics that affects many of the key processes of our planet. They are, in order from the exterior to the interior – the crust, the mantle, the outer core, and the inner core.
