Answer:
Spring constant in N / m = 6,000
Explanation:
Given:
Length of spring stretches = 5 cm = 0.05 m
Force = 300 N
Find:
Spring constant in N / m
Computation:
Spring constant in N / m = Force/Distance
Spring constant in N / m = 300 / 0.05
Spring constant in N / m = 6,000
Answer:
Explanation:
The work function of the metal corresponds to the minimum energy needed to extract a photoelectron from the metal. In this case, it is:
So, the energy of the incoming photon hitting on the metal must be at least equal to this value.
The energy of a photon is given by
where
h is the Planck's constant
c is the speed of light
is the wavelength of the photon
Using 
and solving for , we find the maximum wavelength of the radiation that will eject electrons from the metal:
And since
1 angstrom = 
The wavelength in angstroms is
If something is traveling at 20 m/s constant speed AND its direction isn't changing, then its velocity is constant. Another way to say that is: Its acceleration is zero. Zero acceleration means zero NET force acting on the object, or a group of BALANCED forces acting on it, also called EQUILIBRIUM. The required answer is: YES.
If a real projectile is launched, the force of gravity acts on it vertically downward. There's no upward force acting on it to balance gravity. Therefore, the forces on the projectile are NOT balanced, there IS a net vertical force on it, and it's NOT in equilibrium. Too bad.
