Answer:

C. newtons/meter

Explanation:

The formula for <em>Hooke's law</em> is:

F = k * x

Where F is the force required to compress or extend a spring, x is the distance, and k is the spring constant.

We know that the unit for force is Newton (N), and that the unit for distance x is meter (m). With that information we can find out the units for k, so let's write the equation using values of 1 for each term:

1 N = k * 1 m

k = 1 N/m

So the units for k are newtons/meter

Calculate the density of the football. Use the formula D = m/V where D is the density, m is the mass, and V is the volume. Recor
s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

Detailed explanation:

Density of water=1000kg/m³

Hence mass of water displaced is:

m=d×v

=1000kg/m³×(4.3×10^-3)m³ (volume of water displaced converted to L)

=4.3 kg of water

Hence, mass of football is also 4.3 kg(Archimedes principle)

Thus density of football

=mass÷volume

substitute the mass and volume and solve.

hope this helps

What force does it take to accelerate a 9.2 kg object 7.0 m/s^2?
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

<h2>64.4 N</h2>

Explanation:

The force acting on an object given it's mass and acceleration can be found by using the formula

force = mass × acceleration

From the question

mass = 9.2 kg

acceleration = 7 m/s²

We have

force = 9.2 × 7 = 64.4

We have the final answer as

<h3>64.4 N</h3>

Hope this helps you

The spring of a toy car stores 10 J of potential energy. Only 8 J of energy changes to kinetic energy as the car moves. What hap
son4ous [18]

Answer:

It has been converted into thermal energy due to friction

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy, energy cannot be created nor destroyed, but only transformed from one form into another.

Applied to this problem, it means that the total initial energy of the spring-toy system must be conserved.

Therefore:

- At the beginning, the total energy stored in the spring is 10 J

- After the toy is released, the total energy must still be 10 J.

In reality, we are told that the kinetic energy of the car is only 8 J. The other 2 J have not been destroyed, but they have been converted into thermal energy, due to the presence of frictional forces that act against the motion of the toy car.
