Answer:

Option (B)

Explanation:

The new materials are created along the mid-oceanic ridge in a divergent plate boundary.

In a divergent plate motion, the two plates move in the opposite direction. As a result of which the magma rises and comes out to the surface, that immediately cools and forms basaltic rocks and lavas. This adds new materials to the ocean floor along the mid-oceanic ridge. The rocks near the mid-oceanic ridge are the youngest and the rocks that are away from the mid-oceanic ridge are the oldest. This type of plate boundary is also known as the constructive plate boundary.

Hence, the correct answer is option (B).

Spring #1 has a force constant of k, and spring #2 has a force constant of 2k. Both springs are attached to the ceiling. Identic

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

The ratio of the energy stored by spring #1 to that stored by spring #2 is 2:1

Explanation:

Let the weight that is hooked to two springs be w.

Spring#1:

Force constant= k

let x1 be the extension in spring#1

Therefore by balancing the forces, we get

Spring force= weight

⇒k·x1=w

⇒x1=w/k

Energy stored in a spring is given by $\frac{1}{2}kx^{2}$ where k is the force constant and x is the extension in spring.

Therefore Energy stored in spring#1 is, $\frac{1}{2}k(x1)^{2}$

⇒ $\frac{1}{2}k(\frac{w}{k})^{2}$

⇒ $\frac{w^{2}}{2k}$

Spring #2:

Force constant= 2k

let x2 be the extension in spring#2

Therefore by balancing the forces, we get

Spring force= weight

⇒2k·x2=w

⇒x2=w/2k

Therefore Energy stored in spring#2 is, $\frac{1}{2}2k(x2)^{2}$

⇒ $\frac{1}{2}2k(\frac{w}{2k})^{2}$

⇒ $\frac{w^{2}}{4k}$

∴The ratio of the energy stored by spring #1 to that stored by spring #2 is $\frac{\frac{w^{2}}{2k}}{\frac{w^{2}}{4k}}=$ 2:1

A mass is placed at the end of a spring. It has starting velocity of V & allowed to oscillate freely. If the mass has a star

LiRa [457]

Answer:

Equation for SHM can be written

V = w A cos w t where w is the angular frequency and the velocity is a maximum at t = 0

V1 = w1 A cos w1 t

V2 = w2 A cos w2 t

V2 / V1 = w2 / w1 since cos X t = 1 if t = zero

V2 / V1 = 2 pi f2 / (2 pi f1) = f2 / f1 = T1 / T2

If the velocity is twice as large the period will be 1/2 long

andreev551 [17]

$\mathfrak{\huge{\orange{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}$

Actually Welcome to the concept of Efficiency.

Here we can see that, the Input work is given as 2.2 x 10^7 J and the efficiency is given as 22%

The efficiency is => 22% => 22/100.

so we get as,

E = W(output) /W(input)

hence, W(output) = E x W(input)

so we get as,

W(output) = (22/100) x 2.2 x 10^7

=> W(output) = 0.22 x 2.2 x 10^7 => 0.484 x 10^7

hence, W(output) = 4.84 x 10^6 J

The useful work done on the mass is 4.84 x 10^6 J

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

Spring constant, k = 0.3 N/m

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force acting on DNA molecule, $F=1.5\ nN=1.5\times 10^{-9}\ N$

The molecule got stretched by 5 nm, $x=5\times 10^{-9}\ m$

Let k is the spring constant of that DNA molecule. It can be calculated using the Hooke's law. It says that the force acting on the spring is directly proportional to the distance as :

$F=-kx$

$k=\dfrac{F}{x}$

$k=\dfrac{1.5\times 10^{-9}\ N}{5\times 10^{-9}\ m}$

k = 0.3 N/m

So, the spring constant of the DNA molecule is 0.3 N/m. Hence, this is the required solution.
