Answer:

F = - 2 A x - B

Explanation:

The force and potential energy are related by the expression

      F = - dU / dx i ^ -dU / dy j ^ - dU / dz k ^

Where i ^, j ^, k ^ are the unit vectors on the x and z axis

The potential they give us is

     U (x) = A x² + B x + C

Let's calculate the derivatives

    dU / dx = A 2x + B + 0

The other derivatives are zero because the potential does not depend on these variables.

Let's calculate the strength

      F = - 2 A x - B

An object is swung in a horizontal circle on a length of string that is 0.93 m long. Its acceleration is 26.36 m/s2. What is the
Igoryamba

Answer:

The object takes approximately 1.180 seconds to complete one horizontal circle.  

Explanation:

From statement we know that the object is experimenting an Uniform Circular Motion, in which acceleration (a), measured in meters per square second, is entirely centripetal and is expressed as:

a = \frac{4\pi^{2}\cdot R}{T^{2}} (1)

Where:

T - Period of rotation, measured in seconds.

R - Radius of rotation, measured in meters.

If we know that a = 26.36\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} and R = 0.93\,m, then the time taken by the object to complete one revolution is:

T^{2} = \frac{4\pi^{2}\cdot R}{a}

T = 2\pi\cdot \sqrt{\frac{R}{a} }

T = 2\pi\cdot \sqrt{\frac{0.93\,m}{26.36\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} } }

T \approx 1.180\,s

The object takes approximately 1.180 seconds to complete one horizontal circle.

Insect A moves 5.0 m/min and insect B moves
mezya [45]

Answer:

insect B by 12m

Explanation:

30min = 1800s (times by 60)

5m/min x 30min = 150m

9cm/s x 1800s = 16,200cm = 162m

162m - 150m = 12m

What do simple machines increase?<br> Force<br> Density<br> Work<br> Mechanical advantage
Orlov [11]
The wheel and axle increases your force. You exert your input force over a long distance and the output force is increased over a shorter distance. (Because the wheel is larger than the axle, the axle rotates and exerts a large output force.) A simple machine with a grooved wheel with a rope or cable wrapped around it.

Adding heat to a liquid causes which of the following physical changes?
kow [346]
The density would decrease because the mass of an object deals with the amount of atoms in the object and since none of the object was reduced "a" wouldn't be the answer. Depending on the amount and period of time that the heat is applied the liquid could change into a gas so "d" wouldn't be correct. Density is the mass÷ volume, and when you add heat to an object it could take up different amounts of space because of its particles gaining energy and spreading apart. So the density would decrease because of the volume increasing. So I believe that "c" is the answer.
