Answer:

114.44 J

Explanation:

From Hook's Law,

F = ke................. Equation 1

Where F = Force required to stretch the spring, k = spring constant, e = extension.

make k the subject of the equation

k = F/e.............. Equation 2

Given: F = 10 lb = (10×4.45) N = 44.5 N, e = 4 in = (4×0.254) = 1.016 m.

Substitute into equation 2

k = 44.5/1.016

k = 43.799 N/m

Work done in stretching the 9 in beyond its natural length

W = 1/2ke²................. Equation 3

Given: e = 9 in = (9×0.254) = 2.286 m, k = 43.799 N/m

Substitute into equation 3

W = 1/2×43.799×2.286²

W = 114.44 J

<h2>Answer:</h2>

11.47J

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Hooke's law states that the force or load (F) applied to an elastic material (e.g a spring) is directly proportional to the extension or compression (e) caused by the load. i.e

F ∝ e

F = k e          ---------------(i)

where;

k = proportionality constant called the spring or elastic constant.

<em>From the question,</em>

F = Force = 10 lb

[Remember that 1 lb = 4.45 N]        

=> F = 10 x 4.45 N = 44.5 N            

<em>Also;</em>

e = extension = 4 in

[Remember that 1 in = 0.0254 m]

e = 4 x 0.0254 m = 0.1016 m

<em>Substitute these values into equation (i) to get the spring constant of the spring as follows;</em>

44.5 = k x 0.1016

k = \frac{44.5}{0.1016}

k = 439N/m

<em>Now, lets calculate the work done</em>

The workdone W, in stretching a spring from its natural length to some length beyond the natural length, is given by;

W = \frac{1}{2} x k x e²              --------------------(ii)

Where;

k = the spring's constant = 439N/m                      [as calculated above]

e = extension  = 9 in = 9 x 0.0254m = 0.2286m  [Recall: 1 in  = 0.0254m]

<em>Substitute these values into equation (ii) as follows;</em>

W = \frac{1}{2} x 439 x (0.02286)²

W = 11.47 Nm or 11.47J

Therefore, the work done is 11.47J

Sally goes on a hike. The distance she walks compared to the amount of time she walks is shown on the graph. Which statement is
Neko [114]
According to the task there should be the graph that supports Sally's hike, but after looking on the options it seems that Sally doesn't walks at a constant rate and there is the negative option that coincides with my thoughts. So, I bet the false statement is the third option represented in the scale above.

A 269-turn solenoid is 102 cm long and has a radius of 2.3 cm. It carries a current of 3.9 A. What is the magnetic field inside
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Magnitude of the magnetic field inside the solenoid near its centre is 1.293 x 10⁻³ T

Explanation:

Given;

number of turns of solenoid, N = 269 turn

length of the solenoid, L = 102 cm = 1.02 m

radius of the solenoid, r = 2.3 cm = 0.023 m

current in the solenoid, I = 3.9 A

Magnitude of the magnetic field inside the solenoid near its centre is calculated as;

B = \frac{\mu_o NI}{l} \\\\

Where;

μ₀ is permeability of free space = 4π x 10⁻⁷ m/A

B = \frac{4\pi*10^{-7} *269*3.9}{1.02} \\\\B = 1.293 *10^{-3} \ T

Therefore, magnitude of the magnetic field inside the solenoid near its centre is 1.293 x 10⁻³ T

A car has the velocity of 2.35 after 4.67 it's velocity is 9.89 what is the average acceleration
kiruha [24]
Average acceleration  =  (change in speed) / (time for the change) .
  
Change in speed = (ending speed) - (beginning speed)

                       =  (9.89 miles/hour) - (2.35 yards/second)  = 26,839.2 ft/hr

Acceleration  =  (26,839.2 ft/hr) / (4.67 days)  =  2,873.58 inch/hour²
