The load is the weight of the rock that Jonathan lifts:
The effort instead is the force applied in input to the lever in order to lift the rock:
So, the ratio between load and effort for this exercise is
So, the ratio is 10:1.
Answer:
The value of the spring constant of this spring is 1000 N/m
Explanation:
Given;
equilibrium length of the spring, L = 10.0 cm
new length of the spring, L₀ = 14 cm
applied force on the spring, F = 40 N
extension of the spring due to applied force, e = L₀ - L = 14 cm - 10 cm = 4 cm
From Hook's law
Force applied to a spring is directly proportional to the extension produced, provided the elastic limit is not exceeded.
F ∝ e
F = ke
where;
k is the spring constant
k = F / e
k = 40 / 0.04
k = 1000 N/m
Therefore, the value of the spring constant of this spring is 1000 N/m
The approximate speed of the sound wave traveling through the solid material is 1012m/s.

Wavelength, Frequency and Speed</h3>
Wavelength is simply the distance over which the shapes of waves are repeated. It is the spatial period of a periodic wave.
From the wavelength, frequency and speed relation,
λ = v ÷ f
Where λ is wavelength, v is velocity/speed and f is frequency.
Given the data in the question;
- Frequency of sound wave f = 440Hz = 440s⁻¹
- Wavelength of the wave λ = 2.3m
To determine the approximate speed of the wave, we substitute our given values into the expression above.
λ = v ÷ f
2.3m = v ÷ 440s⁻¹
v = 2.3m × 440s⁻¹
v = 1012ms⁻¹
v = 1012m/s
Therefore, the approximate speed of the sound wave traveling through the solid material is 1012m/s.
