a spring stretches by 0.12 m when some apples weighing 3.2 N are supported from it. What is the Spring Constant?

Explain how machines can be useful if the output is always less than the input work

Anni [7]

Because: Some of the work done by the machine is used to overcome the friction created by the use of the machine. ... Work output can never be greater than work input. Machines allow force to be applied over a greater distance, which means that less force will be needed for the same amount of work.

The knee extensors insert on the tibia at an angle of 30 degrees (from the longitudinal axis of the tibia), at a distance of 3 c

Reika [66]

Answer:

the knee extensors must exert 15.87 N

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

mass m = 4.5 kg

radius of gyration k = 23 cm = 0.23 m

angle ∅ = 30°

∝ = 1 rad/s²

distance of 3 cm from the axis of rotation at the knee r = 3 cm = 0.03 m

using the expression;

ζ = I∝

ζ = mk²∝

we substitute

ζ = 4.5 × (0.23)² × 1

ζ = 0.23805 N-m

so

from; ζ = rFsin∅

F = ζ / rsin∅

we substitute

F = 0.23805 / (0.03 × sin( 30 ° )

F = 0.23805 / (0.03 × 0.5)

F F = 0.23805 / 0.015

F = 15.87 N

Therefore, the knee extensors must exert 15.87 N

Match the following:

joja [24]

Explanation:

1. study of conversion of heat to mechanics → thermodynamics

A branch of physical science which deals with heat and other forms of energy.

2. The Law of Conservation of Energy → first Law of Thermodynamics

Energy cannot be created nor be destroyed. According to first law of thermodynamics total energy of the system is always constant.

3. Result of applied energy → work

Work is the way of system to release its energy.

4. Principle that states that in any energy transformation some energy is dissipated as heat → Second Law of Thermodynamics

5. energy of motion → kinetic energy

Kinetic energy is defined as energy possessed by the body due to its motion.

6. work/displacement → force

Work is product of force and displacement.

$Work=Force \times displacement$

$Force=\frac{Work}{displacement}$

7. power · time → energy

Power is defined energy per unit time.

$Power=\frac{Energy}{Time}$

$Energy=Power\times Time$

8. Device that transforms heat energy into mechanical energy → heat engine

heat engine is a device which converts the heat energy which is released due to combustion of fuel into a useful work that is mechanical energy.

9 . Energy due to position → potential energy

Potential energy is defined as energy possessed by the body due to its position.

10. efficiency of a heat engine unit of heat → calorie

11. Measure of molecular motion → Temperature

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to temperature.

Greater the motion more will be the kinetic energy and with more will be the temperature.

12. Heat given off by a liquid with no change in temperature → latent heat of fusion

Latent heat of fusion is defined as heat released by 1 mole of substance when it under goes phase change that is from solid to liquid.

13. Motion within solids → vibrational motion

Vibrational motion is the motion in which particle oscillates from its mean position.

14. Phase of matter on the sun → plasma

Plasma is hot ionized gas with equal number of positive and negative ions. Due to high temperature of sun most the gas are in the plasma state.

The drawing shows 6 point charges arranged in a rectangle. The value of q is 2.83 uC and the distance d is 0.123 m. Find the tot

vova2212 [387]

the total electric potential at location P, which is at the center of the rectangle is 0V.

The charges placed at the corner of the rectangle are same in magnitude but different in charge. hence the total electric potential will be same in magnitude but different in charge and will be cancelled. Similarly, all the total electric potential will be cancelled and resultant will be zero.

<h3>What is total electric potential?</h3>

The amount of labor required to convey a unit of electric charge from a reference point to a given place in an electric field is known as the electric potential (also known as the electric field potential, potential drop, or the electrostatic potential).
More specifically, it is the energy per unit charge for a test charge that is negligibly disruptive to the field under discussion. In order to prevent the test charge from gaining kinetic energy or radiating, the travel across the field is also meant to occur with very little acceleration.
The electric potential at the reference location is, by definition, zero units. Any point may be used as the reference point, but typically it is earth or a point at infinity.
