the distance a spring will stretch varies directly with how much weight is attached to the spring. If a spring stretches 11 inch

es with 75 pounds attached, how far will it stretch with 65 attached? Round to the nearest tenth of an inch.

Direct variation involves ration and proportions, so 

you need to set up the proportion:

<span>11 / 75 = x / 65
 
Cross multiplying:

75x = 11*65

x = (11*65)/75

Solving, we get x = 9.533, </span>

<span>which rounds off to 9.5

Therefore, the spring will stretch up to 9.5 inches with 65 attached.

I hope my answer has come to your help. Thank you for posting your question here in Brainly.

Which one of the following statements is true concerning the magnitude of the electric field at a point in space? It is a measur
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

It is a measure of the electric force per unit charge on a test charge.

Explanation:

The magnitude of the electric field is defined as the force per charge on the test charge.

Since we define electric field as the force per charge, it will have the units of  force divided by the unit of charge. This implies that the SI unit of electric field is given as Newton/Coulomb (N/C).

In a game of tug of war, team one pulls to the right with a force of 500 newtons and team two pulls to the left with a force of
seraphim [82]

Answer:

Explanation:

There is no set way to do this. All you have to do is define left and right. Left will be minus and right will be the opposite --- plus.

That is completely arbitrary. It could be the other way around. It does not matter.

Left is minus so: - 600 N   is the force going left.

Right plus so: + 500 N

Now just add.

Net Force = +500 - 600

Net Force = - 100 N

So the Net Force is - 100 N going to the left.
