A student hangs a weight on a newtonmeter. The energy currently stored in the spring in the newton meter is 0.045N. The student

then increases the weight on the newtonmeter by 2N. If the spring constant is 400N/m what is the total extension of the spring?

Answer:

5x10^-3

Explanation:

Hooke's Law states that the force needed to compress or extend a spring is directly proportional to the distance you stretch it.

Hooke's Law can be represented as

<h3> F = kx, </h3>

<em>where F is the force </em>

<em>            k is the spring constant</em>

<em>            x is the extension of the material </em>

<em />

Plug values in the equation

Step 1 find the original extension

0.045 = (400)x

x = 1.125x 10^-4 m d

Step 2 find the new extension

0.045+2 = 400(x)

2.045 = 400x

x = 5.1125x10^-3

Step 3 subtract the new extension with original

Total extension of the spring =  5.1125x10^-3 - 1.125x 10^-4 m = 5x10^-3

To balance a chemical equation we use______. <br> -coefficients <br> -subscripts
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

Coefficients

Explanation:

  • Coefficients are used to balance chemical equations.
  • According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants in a chemical equation should be equivalent to the mass of the products.
  • The conservation of mass is achieved in chemical equations is achieved through balancing chemical equations.
  • <em><u>Balancing chemical equations is a try and error of putting appropriate coefficients to the reactants or products to ensure that the number of atoms of each element are equal on the side of the reactants and that of products. </u></em>

You want to get a Q-taco from stripes so you head 3 miles at 45 degrees S of E. What

Trigonometry allows finding the result for the decomposition of the displacement vector is:  

           x = 2.12 mi

           y = -2.12 mi

Displacement is a vector quantity, which has modulus and direction.

The cardinal points are a reference system with respect to which measurements are made, this system is related to the Cartesian system with the East in the positive direction of the x-axis and the North with the positive direction of the y-axis.

In the attached we can see a diagram of the vector and its components, the indicated direction of 45 S of the E, in the Cartesian system where the angles are measured from the positive side of the x-axis in a counterclockwise direction is:

             θ = 360 - 45

             θ = 315º  

Let's use trigonometry to decompose the vector d = 3 mi  

              cos 315 = \frac{x}{d}  

              sin 315 =  \frac{y}{d}  

               

              x = d cos 315

              y = d sin 315

Let's calculate

              x = 3 cos 315

              y = 3 sin 315

              x = 2.12 mi

              y = -2.12 mi

The negative sign indicates that the displacement is towards the negative side, that is, towards the South.

In conclusion using trigonometry we can find the result for the decomposition of the displacement vector are:  

           x = 2.12 mi

           y = -2.12 mi

A physics professor did daredevil stunts in his spare time. His last stunt was an attempt to jump across a river on a motorcycle
tatiyna

Answer:

a) 17.8 m/s

b) 28.3 m

Explanation:

Given:

angle A = 53.0°

sinA = 0.8

cosA = 0.6

width of the river,d = 40.0 m,

the far bank was 15.0 m lower than the top of the ramp h = 15.0 m,

The river itself was 100 m below the ramp H = 100 m,

(a) find speed v

vertical displacement

-h= vsinA\times t-gt^2/2

putting values h=15 m, v=0.8

-15 = 0.8vt - 4.9t^2  ............. (1)

horizontal displacement d = vcosA×t = 0.6×v ×t

so v×t = d/0.6 = 40/0.6

plug it into (1) and get

-15 = 0.8\times40/0.6 - 4.9t^2

solving for t we get

t = 3.734 s

also, v = (40/0.6)/t = 40/(0.6×3.734) =  17.8 m/s

(b) If his speed was only half the value found in (a), where did he land?

v = 17.8/2 = 8.9 m/s

vertical displacement = -H =v sinA t - gt^2/2

⇒ 4.9t^2 - 8.9\times0.8t - 100 = 0

t = 5.30 s

then

d =v×cosA×t = 8.9×0.6×5.30= 28.3 m
