Suppose you have three springs with force constants of k1 = k2 = k3 = 3.70 x 10^3 N/m. What is their effective force constant if

one is hung from the other in series? You may assume the springs have negligible mass.
The answer should be in N/m.

Answer:

The effective force constant is 1233.33 N/m.

Explanation:

It is given that,

Force constant 1, k_1=3.7\times 10^3\ N/m

Force constant 2, k_2=3.7\times 10^3\ N/m

Force constant 3, k_3=3.7\times 10^3\ N/m

The effective force constant if one is hung from the other in series is given by :

\dfrac{1}{K_{eff}}=\dfrac{1}{k_1}+\dfrac{1}{k_2}+\dfrac{1}{k_3}

\dfrac{1}{K_{eff}}=\dfrac{1}{3.7\times 10^3}+\dfrac{1}{3.7\times 10^3}+\dfrac{1}{3.7\times 10^3}

K_{eff}=1233.33\ N/m

So, the effective force constant is 1233.33 N/m. Hence, this is the required solution.

Compute the power output (watts) during one minute of treadmill exercise, given the following: Treadmill grade-10% Horizontal sp
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

c. 981 watts

P=981\ W

Explanation:

Given:

  • horizontal speed of treadmill, v=100\ m.min^{-1}=\frac{5}{3} \ m.s^{-1}
  • weight carried, w=588.6\ N
  • grade of the treadmill, G\%=10\%

<u>Now the power can be given by:</u>

P=v.w

P=588.6\times\frac{5}{3} (where grade is the rise of the front edge per 100 m of the horizontal length)

P=981\ W

You are moving a wagon with a friend's help you push on the left side of the wagon with 25 of force while your friend pulls from
Pavel [41]

Answer:

10N to the left side towards you

Explanation:

The net force is the resultant force that acts on a body.

Force is a push or pull on a body.    

 Push to left side  = 25N

 Pull to the right  = 15N

Net force  = Push to left side   -  Pull to the right  = 25N  - 15N

 Net force  = 10N to the left side towards you

The net force is therefore 10N to the left side towards you

Why might it be necessary to ignore some of the data points just before and just after the collision?
krek1111 [17]
We have no idea. We need to examine the experimental set-up. You've given us no information, except that there may have been some sort of collision.
