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.

Is distance traveled by a moving train qualitative discrete continuous or na?
butalik [34]
Continuous. Discrete values are values like 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. - they're values that are <em>distinct</em>, and typically there's some idea of a <em>next </em>and a <em>previous </em>value. When we're counting whole numbers, there's a definitive answer to which number comes after, and which number comes before. With continuous values, there's no real "next" or "last" value.

Motion is measured with <em>continuous </em>values; a train might move 300 yards in 1 minute, but we can look at smaller and smaller chunks of time to keep getting shorter and shorter distances. There is no <em />"next" distance the train moves after those 300 yards - it just doesn't make sense for there to be.

It's also measured <em>quantitatively</em>, not <em>qualitatively</em>. This just means that we can use numerical values to measure it, rather than other descriptors like color, smell, or taste.

The force of attraction between two oppositely charged pith is 5mx 10 to the -6th power newtons. If the charge on the two is 6.7
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

0.28 m

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Force (F) = 5×10¯⁶ N

Charge 1 (q₁) = 6.7×10¯⁹ C

Charge 2 (q₂) = 6.7×10¯⁹ C

Electrical constant (K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²C¯²

Distance apart (r) =?

Thus, the distance between the two charges can be obtained as follow:

F = Kq₁q₂/r²

5×10¯⁶ = 9×10⁹ × 6.7×10¯⁹ × 6.7×10¯⁹/r²

5×10¯⁶ = 4.0401×10¯⁷ / r²

Cross multiply

5×10¯⁶ × r² = 4.0401×10¯⁷

Divide both side by 5×10¯⁶

r² = 4.0401×10¯⁷ / 5×10¯⁶

Take the square root of both side

r = √(4.0401×10¯⁷ / 5×10¯⁶)

r = 0.28 m

Therefore, the distance between the two charges is 0.28 m
