We can salve the problem by using the formula:

F=kx

where F is the force applied, k is the spring constant and x is the stretching of the spring.


From the first situation we can calculate the spring constant, which is given by the ratio between the force applied and the stretching of the spring:

k=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{15 N}{0.075 m}=200 N/m


By using the value of the spring constant we calculated in the first step, we can calculate the new stretching of the spring when a force of 33 N is applied:

x=\frac{F}{k}=\frac{33 N}{200 N/m}=0.165 m

What is the deceleration of a bicycle that goes from 40m/s to 20m/s in 5 seconds
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

-4 m/s^2

Explanation:

The acceleration of the bycicle is given by:

a=\frac{v-u}{t}

where

v = 20 m/s is the final velocity of the bike

u = 40 m/s is the initial velocity

t = 5 s is the time interval

Substituting numbers, we find

a=\frac{20 m/s-40 m/s}{5s}=-4 m/s^2

and the acceleration is negative, which means that the bycicle is slowing down.

15) Very cold climates occur at Earth's North and South Poles because the polar regions
Gwar [14]

Because the polar regions receive low-angle insolation.

Insolation is the amount of solar radiation received by a given area. The Sun is always low on the horizon. The low Sun angle makes the beam of solar radiation to travel a longer distance from upper troposphere to reach earth's surface as compared to when it is directly overhead. In this case, the radiations are scattered and reflected more by the atmosphere and spread over a larger area. Thus, the intensity of solar radiation is very less at polar regions than near the equatorial region. This is the reason of very cold climates at polar regions.
