Answer:14.14 cm

Explanation:

Given

Spring Compression x=12 cm

Potential energy Stored in spring=72 J

Suppose k is the spring constant of spring

Potential Energy of spring is given by =\frac{kx^2}{2}

\frac{k(0.12)^2}{2}=72

k(0.12)^2=144

k=10,000 N/m

k=10 kN/m

for 100 J energy

\frac{k(x_0)^2}{2}=100

10\times 10^3\cdot (x_0)^2=200

(x_0)^2=2\times 10^{-2}

x_0=0.1414

x_0=14.14 cm

Earthquakes that originate beneath the ocean floor produce huge tidal waves called _____.
ololo11 [35]

Answer;

-Tsunami

Explanation;

-Tsunami  is a series of large ocean waves (or "wave train") of extremely long wavelength and period, usually generated when a gigantic body of water, such as an ocean, is suddenly displaced on a massive scale by an underwater disturbance such as an earthquake occurring on or near the sea floor or a volcanic eruption.

-After a sudden displacement of a large water volume by seismic activity (earthquake), the ocean floor is raised or dropped and large tsunami waves can be formed by gravitational forces.

A small logo is embedded in a thick block of crown glass (n = 1.52), 4.70 cm beneath the top surface of the glass. The block is
harkovskaia [24]

The concept required to solve this problem is the optical relationship that exists between the apparent depth and actual or actual depth. This is mathematically expressed under the equations.

d'w = d_w (\frac{n_{air}}{n_w})+d_g (\frac{n_{air}}{n_g})

Where,

d_g = Depth of glass

n_w = Refraction index of water

n_g = Refraction index of glass

n_{air} = Refraction index of air

d_w = Depth of water

I enclose a diagram for a better understanding of the problem, in this way we can determine that the apparent depth in the water of the logo would be subject to

d'w = d_w (\frac{n_{air}}{n_w})+d_g (\frac{n_{air}}{n_g})

d'w = (1.7cm) (\frac{1}{1.33})+(4.2cm)(\frac{1}{1.52})

d'w = 4.041cm

Therefore the distance below the upper surface of the water that appears to be the logo is 4.041cm

Two resistors, R1=3.85 Ω and R2=6.47 Ω , are connected in series to a battery with an EMF of 24.0 V and negligible internal resi
Bond [772]

Answer:

(a) 2.33 A

(b) 15.075 V

Explanation:

From the question,

The total resistance (Rt) = R1+R2 = 3.85+6.47

R(t) = 10.32 ohms.

Applying ohm's law,

V = IR(t)..........equation 1

Where V = Emf of the battery, I = current flowing through the circuit, R(t) = combined resistance of both resistors.

Note: Since both resistors are connected in series, the current flowing through them is the same.

Therefore,

I = V/R(t)............. Equation 2

Given: V = 24 V, R(t) = 10.32 ohms

Substitute these values into equation 2

I = 24/10.32

I = 2.33 A.

Hence the current through R1 = 2.33 A.

V2 = IR2.............. Equation 3

V2 = 2.33(6.47)

V2 = 15.075 V

3. A coil of 100 turns encloses an area of 100 cm2. It is placed at an angle of 700 with a
sasho [114]

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of turns in the coil, N = 100

Area of the coil, A = 100 cm² = 0.01 m²

It is placed at an angle of 70°.

Magnetic field, B = 0.1 Wb/m²

We need to find the magnetic flux through the coil and the emf is induced in the coil after 10⁻³ s.

Magnetic flux is given by :

\phi =BA\cos\theta\\\\\text{For N turns},\\\phi =NBA\cos\theta \\\\\phi=100\times 0.1\times 0.01\times \cos(70)\\\\=0.034\ Wb

So, the magnetic flux through the coil is 0.1 Wb.

Emf induced in the coil is :

\epsilon=\dfrac{-d\phi}{dt}\\\\=\dfrac{0.034}{10^{-3}}\\\\=34\ V

So, 34V of emf is induced in the coil.

a baby carriage is sitting at the top of a hill that is 21 m high. The carriage with the baby weighs 12 Kg. how much energy does
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The carriage has the energy, W = 2469.6 J

Explanation:

Given data,

The height of the hill, h = 21 m

The carriage with the baby weighs, m = 12 kg

The energy possessed by the body due to its position is the potential energy,

                                      <em>W = P.E = mgh joules</em>

Substituting the values,

                                       W = 12 x 9.8 x 21

                                            = 2469.6 J

Hence, the carriage has the energy, W = 2469.6 J
