Melissa's favorite exercise equipment at the gym consists of various springs. in one exercise, she pulls a handle grip attached

to the free end of a spring to 0.80 m from its unstrained position. the other end of the spring (spring constant = 45 n/m) is held in place by the equipment frame. what is the magnitude of the force that melissa is applying to the handle grip?

The formula for force exerted on/by a spring is 

F = k*e where k is the spring constant and x is the distance stretched from unstrained position. This should allow you to find what you need.

 

Using F = k x e, 


where k is the spring constant, 


and e is the extension, 


The F is her weight = 45 X 0.80 


= 36 N

Suppose that two objects attract each other with a gravitational force of 16 units. If the mass of both objects was doubled, and
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

  • Distance, such that displacement over time is taken into account doesn't change regardless of the length in x meters or mass in kg
  • So the force will remain constant given 16 units

What is the power output of a pump which can raise 60kg of water height to height of 10m every minute
sattari [20]

Answer:

<h3>Power = Work Done/time</h3>

=> Power = 60×10×10/60

=> Power = 6000/60

=> Power = 100 Watt

Hence the power output of a pump is 100 Watts.

An object is at rest in front of a compressed spring. It travels over a surface that exerts a kinetic frictional force on it and
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

the object will travel 0.66 meters before to stop.

Explanation:

Using the energy conservation theorem:

E_i+K_i+W_f=K_f+U_f

The work done by the friction force is given by:

W_f=F_f*d\\W_f=\µ*m*g*d\\W_f=0.35*4*9.81*d\\W_f=13.7d[J]

so:

\frac{1}{2}1800*(10*10^{-2})+0-13.7d=0+0\\d=0.66m
