Answer:

A. It is always a positive force

Explanation:

Hooke's law describes the relation between an applied force and extension ability of an elastic material. The law states that provided the elastic limit, e, of a material is not exceeded, the force, F, applied is proportional to the extension, x, provided temperature is constant.

i.e F = - kx

where k is the constant of proportionality, and the minus sign implies that the force is a restoring force.

The applied force can either be compressing or stretching force.

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Work done by the machine (W) =  500 × 1.5 = 750 J

Work supplied to the machine (W) = 100 × 10 = 1000 J

              Here, work supplied to the machine is input work = 1000 J

Ballon volume of 3200ml of xenon gas is at a gauge pressure of 122kPa and a temperature of 27c. What is the volume when the ball
N76 [4]

Given:

The initial volume of the gas, V₁=3200 ml=3.2×10⁻³ m³

The initial pressure of the gas, P₁=122 kPa

The initial temperature of the gas, T₁=27 °C=300 K

The final temperature, T₂=65 °C=338 K

The final pressure, P₂=112 kPa

To find:

The final volume of xenon gas.

Explanation:

From the combined gas law,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

Where V₂ is the volume after it is heated.

On rearranging the above equation,

V_2=\frac{T_2P_1V_1}{T_1P_2}

On substituting the known values,

\begin{gathered} V_2=\frac{338\times112\times10^3\times3.2\times10^{-3}}{300\times112\times10^3} \\ =3.61\text{ m}^3 \end{gathered}

Final answer:

The volume of the balloon when it is heated is 3.61 m³

A wave has a wavelength of 8 mm and a frequency of 11 hertz. What is its speed? Your Answer:?
wolverine [178]

To find wave speed, you multiply the wavelength by the frequency. This means it is 8 times 11. This gives you 88. That means the answer is 88mm/s

Arrange the following events in the mantle convection process. Use numbers 1-5.
finlep [7]

Answer:

1) Lithospheric plates move in the asthenosphere due to rising and sinking of materials is 1.

2) The decomposition of radioactive elements causes heat in the interior part of the Earth

3) Heat slowly rises to the mantle and creates convection current.

4). Heat moves to the core

5) The process repeats as cycle.

Explanation:

Mantle convection is the gradual slow creeping of movement of the Earth's mantle which is as a result of convection current which transfer heat from the interior to the surface of the Earth .

The process of mantle convection start with

1. Lithospheric plates move in the asthenosphere due to rising and sinking of materials is and thus form the two component of the mantle.

2) The decomposition of radioactive elements causes heat in the interior part of the Earth. This is as a result of accretion which is associated to sea flooding

3) Heat slowly rises to the mantle and creates convection current.

4). Heat moves to the core, cools down by conduction and convection of heat.

5) The process repeats as cycle.
