What statement is true about a spring?

I think B is the most correct, because logically it's harder to bend a stiffer spring than it is to bend a softer one. Also, I don't think length comes into play. So B.

Answer:

B. The stiffer the spring, the greater the force required to restore its position.

Explanation:

The 'restoring force' (the force required to restore the position of a spring) is given by:

F=-kx

where

F is the restoring force

k is the spring constant, which determines its stiffness (the higher the value of k, the stiffer the spring)

x is the displacement of the spring relative to its natural length

From the formula, we see that the higher the value of k (so, the stiffer the spring), the larger the restoring force, so the correct option is

B. The stiffer the spring, the greater the force required to restore its position

The distance between the objective and eyepiece lenses in a microscope is 19 cm . The objective lens has a focal length of 5.5 m
kramer

Answer:

The focal length of eyepiece is 3.68 cm.

Explanation:

Given that,

Distance = 19 cm

Focal length = 5.5 mm

Magnification = 200

Object distance = -25 cm

We need to calculate the focal length

Using formula of magnification

m=\dfrac{d}{f_{o}}+\dfrac{-25}{f_{0}f_{e}}

Put the value into the formula

f_{e}=\dfrac{19\times(-25)}{.55(-200-\dfrac{19}{.55})}

f_{e}=3.68\ cm

Hence, The focal length of eyepiece is 3.68 cm.

I). Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy in an object that is used to do work.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

false statement : b )  For the motion of a cart on an incline plane having a coefficient of kinetic friction of 0.5, the magnitude of the change in kinetic energy equals the magnitude of the change in gravitational potential energy

Explanation:

mechanical energy = potential energy + kinetic energy = constant

differentiating both side

Δ potential energy + Δ kinetic energy = 0

Δ potential energy = -  Δ kinetic energy

first statement is true.

Friction is a non conservative force so inter-conversion of potential and kinetic energy is not possible in that case. In case of second  option,  the correct relation is as follows

change in gravitational potential energy = change in kinetic energy + work done against friction .

So given 2 nd  option is incorrect.

In case of no change in gravitational energy , work done is equal to

change in kinetic energy.

HELP PLS!!!! Light travels approximately 982,080,000 ft/s, and one year has approximately 32,000,000 seconds. A light year is th
maw [93]

You've already told us the speed in ft/s .  It's right there in the question.  You said that light travels about  982,080,000 ft/s.

We don't know how accurate that number is, but for purposes of THIS question, that's the number we're going with.

In scientific notation, it's written . . . <em>9.8208 x 10⁸ ft/s .</em>

We don't know where you were going with the number of seconds in a year.  But to answer the question that you eventually asked, it turned out that we don't even need it.

Which location on the map above is a source of North Atlantic deep water?
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Today there are three major deep ocean masses. North Atlantic Deep Water or NADW is mainly produced where the surface ocean is cooled in the Norwegian Sea in the northern part of the North Atlantic on the north side of a ridge that runs between Greenland, Iceland, and Scotland.
