Mercury as in the element, or the planet?
Well, i'll tell you both, just in case.
The planet is a dark grey,
and the element is kind-of a silvery-white color.
Hope this helps!
Stay smart,

P6: An object of mass m sits on a spring of constant k in an elevator that is accelerating upwards with acceleration a. a) In te

tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

(a). The spring compressed is $\dfrac{ma+mg}{k}$ .

(b). The acceleration is 1.5 g.

Explanation:

Given that,

Acceleration = a

mass = m

spring constant = k

(a). We need to calculate the spring compressed

Using balance equation

$kx-mg=ma$

$x=\dfrac{ma+mg}{k}$ ....(I)

The spring compressed is $\dfrac{ma+mg}{k}$ .

(b). If the compression is 2.5 times larger than it is when the mass sits in a still elevator,

The compression is given by

$x=2.5\times x_{0}$

Here, acceleration is zero

So, $x=2.5\times\dfrac{mg}{k}$

We need to calculate the acceleration

Put the value of x in equation (I)

$2.5\times \dfrac{mg}{k}=\dfrac{ma+mg}{k}$

$2.5\times\dfrac{mg}{k}=\dfrac{m}{k}(a+g)$

$a=2.5g-g$

$a=1.5g$

Hence, (a). The spring compressed is $\dfrac{ma+mg}{k}$ .

(b). The acceleration is 1.5 g.

Why echos are undesirable in a big hall

KatRina [158]

Answer:

Helloooo

Sound created in a big hall will persist by repeated reflection from the walls until it is reduced to a value where it is no longer audible. The repeated reflection that results in this persistence of sound is called reverberation. In an auditorium or big hall excessive reverberation is highly undesirable

The law of universal gravitation states that a gravitational force exists between all objects in the universe. This force is dir

Ber [7]

Answer: D. it has been demonstrated to be without exception under certain stated conditions.

Explanation:

A Law is an affirmation (something established) based on repeated long-term observation of a phenomenon that has been studied and verified.

That is: A law is present in all known theories and therefore is considered universal. In addition, a law can not be refuted, nor changed, because its precepts have been proven through various studies.

Unlike theory, which is the set of rules and principles that describe and explain a particular phenomenon and is subject to changes as new evidence emerges that gives meaning to it.

Then, based on what is explained above, the law of universal gravitation is a statement that exists because it was rigorously tested and verified, therefore it can not be refuted.
