Answer:

A. 130.7 N/m

Explanation:

By Hook's law

Force(F) = Spring constant(k) × Extention (d)

F = k× d ⇒ k = F/d

To find Force(F) you know it is the weight of the object. Considering g = 9.8 ms⁻²

k = 2×9.8/0.15 = 130.7 Nm⁻¹

Hooke’s law,

for small deformations of an object, the displacement is directly proportional to the deforming force or load.

Under these conditions the object returns to its original shape and size upon removal of the load.

The deforming force may be applied to a solid by stretching, compressing,etc. so a spring shows an elastic behavior according to Hooke’s law

Mathematically,

applied force( F) = constant (k)* displacement in length (x)

F = kx.

The value of k depends

on the kind of elastic material
on its dimensions and shape.

A film badge worn by a radiologist indicates that she has received an absorbed dose of 2. 5 x 10-6 gy. the mass of the radiologi

Anestetic [448]

Energy absorbed by the radiologist is 1.775*10^-6J.

To find the answer, we have to know about the radiation.

<h3>How much energy has she absorbed?</h3>

We have the expression for dose of absorption as,

$D=\frac{E}{m}$

where; E is the energy absorbed and m is the mass of the body.

From the above expression, substituting appropriate values given in the question, we get,

$E=D*m=2.5*10^{-6}J/kg*71kg=1.775*10^{-4}J$

Thus, we can conclude that, the Energy absorbed by the radiologist is 1.775*10^-6J.

miv72 [106K]

It can't be less than 250 N or the cart wouldn't move at all. That means there is only 1 answer. It's between not enough info or 250 N. The answer is 250 N. If it was any more, there would be acceleration.

jet is flying at 500 mph east relative to the ground. A Cessna is flying at 150 mph 60° north of west relative to the ground. Wh

Greeley [361]

Answer:

C. 590 mph

$\vert v_{cj}\vert=589.49\ mph$

Explanation:

Given:

velocity of jet, $v_j=500\ mph$
direction of velocity of jet, east relative to the ground
velocity of Cessna, $v_c=150\ mph$
direction of velocity of Cessna, 60° north of west

Taking the x-axis alignment towards east and hence we have the velocity vector of the jet as reference.

Refer the attached schematic.

So,

$\vec v_j=500\ \hat i\ mph$

$\vec v_c=150\times (\cos120\ \hat i+\sin120\ \hat j)$

$\vec v_c=-75\ \hat i+75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j\ mph$

Now the vector of relative velocity of Cessna with respect to jet:

$\vec v_{cj}=\vec v_j-\vec v_c$

$\vec v_{cj}=500\ \hat i-(-75\ \hat i+75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j )$

$\vec v_{cj}=575\ \hat i-75\sqrt{3}\ \hat j\ mph$

Now the magnitude of this velocity:

$\vert v_{cj}\vert=\sqrt{(575)^2+(75\sqrt{3} )^2}$

$\vert v_{cj}\vert=589.49\ mph$ is the relative velocity of Cessna with respect to the jet.
