Answer: 14400 N

Explanation:

Weight of an object is the force acting on an object on the center of the body by gravity.

weight=mass\times acceleratio

Given mass= 1470 kg

acceleration due to gravity = 9.80m/s^2

Putting in the values we get,

weight=1470kg\times 9.80m/s^2=14400kgms^{-2}=14400N

1kgms^{-2}=1Newton(N)

thus weight of the object is 14400 Newton

Weight  = Mass * gravity

             =  1470* 9.8 = 14406 N  ≈ 14,400 N

It took 1700 J of work to stretch a spring from its natural length of 2m to a length of 5m. Find the spring's force constant.
Alenkasestr [34]
The work to stretch a spring from its rest position is

               (1/2) (spring constant) (distance of the stretch)²

           E = 1/2 k x² .

You said it takes 1700 joules to stretch the spring 3 meters from its rest position, so we can write

                 1700 joules  =  1/2 k (3m)²

1 joule = 1 newton-meter

                 1700 N-m =  1/2 k  (3m)²

Multiply each side by 2:   3400 N-m  =  k · 9m²   

Divide each side by  9m²     k  =  3400 N-m / 9m²

                                                   =  (377 and 7/9)   newton per meter

Darya [45]
According to newton's third law of motion, when a hammer strikes and exerts force to push it into a piece of wood, the nail <span>C. exerts an equal or opposite force on the hammer. The third law of motion states that every action has an equal BUT opposite reaction. This means that the nail exerts the same force the hammer exerts on it.</span>
