A single mass m1 = 3.6 kg hangs from a spring in a motionless elevator. The spring is extended x = 15.0 cm from its unstretched

length. . . Now, three masses m1 = 3.6 kg, m2 = 10.8 kg and m3 = 7.2 kg hang from three identical springs in a motionless elevator. The springs all have the same spring constant that you just calculated above. . . What is the distance the lower spring is stretched from its equilibrium length?

The distance the lower spring is stretched from its equilibrium length is 45cm because the weight is 3x as much as the reference spring and the spring constant is the same. 

<span>2) The force the bottom spring exerts on the mass is its weight (=mg) PLUS 10.8kg x 3.8m/s^2 = 133N </span>

<span>3) The distance the upper spring is extended from its unstretched length when not accelerated is 15cm </span>

<span>4) Rank the distances the springs are extended from their unstretched lengths: </span>
<span>c) x1 < x2 < x3 </span>

<span>5) The distance the MIDDLE spring is extended from its unstretched length when not accelerated is 45cm </span>

<span>6) Finally, the elevator is moving downward with a velocity of v = -3.4 m/s and also accelerating downward at an acceleration of a = -2.1 m/s2. </span>
<span>a)speeding up </span>
<span>because the v and a are in the same direction</span>

Why is respiration an exothermic reaction? A. a large amount of energy is released into its surroundings B. the heat content, q,
Rina8888 [55]
A. a large amount of energy released into its surrounding

During the respiration, glucose molecules are converted to other molecules in a series of steps. They finally end up as as carbon-dioxide and water.

The overall reaction is

<span>C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + 2805 kJ
</span>
The reaction is exothermic reaction because <span>C=O and O-H bonds in the products are so much more stable than the bonds in the reactants.
</span>
Bond energy is the average needed to break a bond.

Some bond energies are:
C-C = 347 kJ/mol
C-H = 413kJ/mol;
C-O = 358 kJ/mol;
O-H = 467 kJ/mol;
O=O = 495 kJ/mol;
<span>C=O = 799 kJ/mol</span>

Answer:

The conduction path or simply the wires connected between different components in a circuit.

Explanation:

The wire makes up the path for the electricity to flow and most of the electricity flows through this. It is like a road connecting two house or buildings in a town and the traffic of vehicles is the electricity (current).

LekaFEV [45]

<u>Answer:</u>

The correct answer option is C. buzzer.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We know that Jeff's father needs to get a device from his workshop that converts electrical energy to sound energy.

So from the given options, buzzer is the best option Jeff's father can install in his house's security system.

An electric buzzer converts an electrical oscillating voltage into a sound output. In other words, the electrical pulses are converted into sound vibrations.
