\textbf{2500 }\dfrac{\textbf{kg}}{\textbf{s}^{\textbf{2}}}

Explanation:

       Natural length of a spring is 0.5\text{ }m. The spring is streched by 0.02\text{ }m. The resultant energy of the spring is 0.5\text{ }J.

       The potential energy of an ideal spring with spring constant k and elongation x is given by \dfrac{1}{2}kx^{2}.

       So, in the current problem, the natural length of the spring is not required to find the spring constant k.

       \text{Potential Energy in the spring = }\dfrac{1}{2}kx^{2}\\0.5\text{ }J\text{ }=\text{ }\dfrac{1}{2}k(0.02\text{ }m)^{2}\\k\times0.0004\text{ }m^{2}\text{ }=\text{ }1\text{ }J\text{ }=\text{ }1\text{ }kg\frac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}\\k\text{ }=\text{ }\dfrac{1\text{ }kg\dfrac{m^{2}}{s^{2}}}{0.0004\text{ }m^{2}}\text{ }=\text{ }2500\text{ }\frac{kg}{s^{2}}

∴ The spring constant of the spring = 2500\text{ }\frac{kg}{s^{2}}

Leftover planetesimals that formed in the region of the solar system now occupied by the jovian planets are called
rewona [7]

Answer:

Comets

Explanation:

Comets are planetary celestial bodies consisting of ice and dust, sometimes rocky particles  formed in the region of the solar system. Long-period comets propagate towards the Sun by gravitational perturbations caused by passing stars. Some comets usually hyberbolic comets, move through the inner Solar System  prior to entering the interstellar region. Short period comet lies beyond the orbit of the Neptune.

The Jovian planets include Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune.

Therefore, leftovers of comets (planetesimal bodies) formed in the region of the solar system that are now occupied by the Jovian planets is due to the dusty particles  associated with the comets.

What is the relation between inertia and mass?
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The tendency of an object to resist changes in its state of motion varies with mass. Mass is that quantity that is solely dependent upon the inertia of an object. The more inertia that an object has, the more mass that it has. A more massive object has a greater tendency to resist changes in its state of motion.
