A mass of 30.0 grams hangs at rest from the lower end of a long vertical spring. You add different amounts of additional mass ΔM

to the end of the spring and measure the increase in length Δl of the spring due to the additional mass. You plot your data in the form Δl (vertical axis) versus ΔM (horizontal axis). Plotted this way, your data lies very close to a straight line that has slope 0.0268 m/kg. What is the force constant k of the spring? Use g = 9.80 m/s2.

Answer:

366N/m

Explanation:

According to Hooke's law:

F=-kx

avoiding the minus symbol and substituting the force to the gravitational force, we have:

m.g=k.x\\k=\frac{m.g}{x}=\frac{m}{x}*g\\k=\frac{1}{s}*g\\k=\frac{1}{0.0268m/kg}*9.80m/s^2\\\\k=366N/m

The spring constant is 366N/m

Answer:

K = 373.13 N/m

Explanation:

The force of the spring is equals to:

Fe - m*g = 0     =>    Fe = m*g

Using Hook's law:

K*X = m*g    Solving for K:

K = m/X * g

In this equation, m/X is the inverse of the given slope. So, using this value we can calculate the spring's constant:

K = 10 / 0.0268 = 373.13N/m

What causes the apparent motions of stars across the sky each night
densk [106]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

for the motion every night, it is because the Earth spins on its axis.

for the changes over a year, this is because the Earth rotates around the sun.

for the changes over hundreds, thousands or millions of years, this is because the whole solar system (including the Earth, of course) rotates with all the other stars in our galaxy around the center of the galaxy. and each star system has its own orbit (similar to the planets in our solar system).

it is very rare to see objects outside of our galaxy without a telescope, but they change too over a long period of time, because our galaxy not only rotates by also moves through the universe, and these other objects move on their own too.

A typical human consumes 2500 Kcal of energy during a day. This is the equivalent to 10,450,000 J! Say you decided to run stairs
defon

Answer:

2940.1 joules  would you burn in climbing stairs all day.

Explanation:

Work = W = F\times d

going up stairs  would be against force of gravity

W = mgh

where h is the  height

the question is not complete because we need speed or distance

h =  v \times t

so assuming 1 step per second

h = 86,400 steps  \times 7inchs/step \times 0.0254 m/inch

h = 15362 m

so from this    

W = 800 N \times 15362

   = 12289600 J  

that means YOU  need 12289600 J to walk 1 step per second all day

divide that by 4180 J /Kcal  

Kcal =  \frac{W}{(J/Kcal)}

       = \frac{12289600}{4180}

       = 2940.1 Kcal

if you ran faster you would use more energy  2 steps per second would mean 5880 Kcal.

A sailboat moves north for a distance of 10.00 km when blown by a wind from the exact south with a force of 5.00 x 10^4 n. how m
Nataliya [291]
Work is defined as the force times the distance which is mathematically expressed W = Fxd. The given force is 5x10^4 and the distance is 10000 m (the distance is converted as meter because Nm = J) the work done by the wind is W = 5x10^4 N (10000) = 500 x 10^6 Joules. I hope it answered your question
