Initially sliding with a speed of 1.9 m/s, a 1.8 kg block collides with a spring and compresses it 0.35 m before coming to rest.

what is the force constant of the spring?

Let k =  the force constant of the spring (N/m).

The strain energy (SE) stored in the spring when it is compressed by a distance x=0.35 m is
SE = (1/2)*k*x²
     = 0.5*(k N/m)*(0.35 m)²
     = 0.06125k J

The KE (kinetic energy) of the sliding block is
KE = (1/2)*mass*velocity²
     = 0.5*(1.8 kg)*(1.9 m/s)²
     = 3.249 J

Assume that negligible energy is lost when KE is converted into SE.
Therefore
0.06125k = 3.249
k = 53.04 N/m

Answer:  53 N/m  (nearest integer)

Schach [20]

Speed is v = d/t

Or speed is distance over time

So...

40min / 60min = 0.6667 or 2/3 --> Finding what proportion 40 minutes is to an hour or 60 minutes as we need the units of hours to match up

45km/h = d/0.6667h

d = (45)(0.667)

d = 30.0015 or 30km

Answer:

Explanation:

1) Hypermetropia (better known as Farsighted- this is why nearby objects seem blurry for him)

2) In such instances, image are typically formed farther from the near point

3) Such defects are quite common so there are common procedures such as using convex lens which can restore the sight to normal.

A toy doll and a toy robot are standing on a frictionless surface facing each other. The doll has a mass of 0.2 kg, and the robo
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

<h3>1.43m/s²</h3>

Explanation:

According to newtons second law.

F = mass * acceleration

If the doll has a mass of 0.2 kg, and the robot has a mass of 0.5 kg, the resulting mass will be 0.7kg

Force applied = 1N

acceleration = Force/mass

Substitute the values and get acceleration

acceleration = 1/0.7

acceleration = 1.43m/s²

Hence the magnitude of the acceleration of the robot is 1.43m/s²

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

a) The plasma membrane is called a selectively permeable membrane as it permits the movement of only certain molecules in and out of the cells. ... It allows hydrophobic molecules and small polar molecules diffuse through the lipid layer, but does not allow ions and large polar molecules cannot diffuse through the membrane

b) Plastids are present in the cells of plants. They are characterised by the presence of pigments. ... Chloroplasts contain chlorophyll and carotenoid pigments responsible for capturing the light energy that is necessary for photosynthesis. The chloroplasts are therefore known as the kitchen of the cell.

c) Lysosomes are known as the suicidal bag of the cell because it is capable of destroying its own cell in which it is present. It contains many hydrolytic enzymes which are responsible for the destruction process. This happens when either the cell is aged or gets infected by foreign agents like any bacteria or virus.

d) Mitochondria are often called the “powerhouses” or “energy factories” of a cell because they are responsible for making adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the cell's main energy-carrying molecule. ... In mitochondria, this process uses oxygen and produces carbon dioxide as a waste product.

e) In Hydra, the cells are arranged in two germinal layers—outer ectoderm and inner endoderm. Between these two layers is a layer of undifferentiated cells called mesoglea. Such kind of pattern of embryonic layers is seen in diploblastic animals. Hence, Hydra is a diploblastic animal.
