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
The question is oversimplified, and pretty sloppy.
Relative to the Earth . . .
The Moon is in an elliptical orbit around us, with a period of
27.32... days, and with the Earth at one focus of the ellipse.
Relative to the Sun . . .
The Moon is in an elliptical orbit around the Sun, with a period
of 365.24... days, and with the Sun at one focus of the ellipse,
and the Moon itself makes little dimples or squiggles in its orbit
on account of the gravitational influence of the nearby Earth.
I'm sorry if that seems complicated. You know that motion is
always relative to something, and the solar system is not simple.
Answer:
the rotation of earth is determining what part of the sun faces what part of earth making time the part thats away from the sun would be night and the one facing the sun itself would be day
Answer:
Precipitation amounts
Explanation:
Meteorologists are scientists whose job is to predict different weather weather conditions. They study the atmosphere of the earth thoroughly so as to make a clear and concise weather forecast.
Meteorologists makes it possible for people to get information on possible rainfall or sunshine, it also enable people to know about a possible hurricance occurrence.
Meteorologists make use of a variety of tools to predict the weather, they include: wind vanes, barometers, anemometers, rain gauges, thermometer, hydrometer, Campbell Stokes Recorder,Transmissometer.
