You attach a block to the bottom end of a spring hanging vertically. You slowly let the block move down and find that it hangs a

t rest with the spring stretched by 18.0 cm. Next, you lift the block back up and release it from rest with the spring unstretched. What maximum distance does it move down

Answer:36 cm

Explanation:

Given

At Equilibrium extension a is 18 cm

suppose m is the mass of block

thus

ka=mg

k=\frac{mg}{a}

k=\frac{mg}{0.18}

Now if the block is released from un-stretched position

conserving Energy and supposing block moves x units down

\frac{1}{2}kx^2=mgx

x=\frac{2mg}{k}

x=2mg\times \frac{0.18}{mg}

x=0.36 \approx 36 cm

Two children are balanced on a seesaw that has a mass of 18.0 kg. The first child has a mass of 26.0 kg and sits 1.60 m from the
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

1.28 m

Explanation:

As shown in the diagram attached,

According to the principle of moment,

For a body at equilibrium,

Sum of clockwise moment = sum of anticlockwise moment.

Taking moment about the pivot,

W₁(1.6)+W(0.133) = W₂(x)............... Equation 1

Where W₁ = Weight of the first child, Wₓ = Weight of the seesaw, W₂ = weight of the second child, x = distance of the second child from the pivot.

But,

W = mg

Where g = 9.8 m/s², m = mass of the body

Therefore,

W₁ = 26×9.8 = 254.8 N,

Wₓ = 18×9.8 = 176.4 N

W₂ = 34.4×9.8 = 337.12 N

Substitute these values into equation 1

(254.8×1.6)+(176.4×0.133) = 337.12(x)

407.68+23.4612 = 337.12x

337.12x = 431.1412

x = 431.1412/337.12

x = 1.2789

x ≈ 1.28 m

During the experiment if you could double the breakaway magnetic force with all other quantities left unchanged, what is the new
sergiy2304 [10]
There are some missing information in the question.
However, since you are talking about magnetic force, I think you refer to the Lorentz force. When a particle of charge q and velocity v is immersed in a magnetic field of intensity B, the force acting on the particle is:
F=qvBsin\theta
where \theta is the angle between the magnetic field and the direction of the particle.
Therefore, if force F is doubled, then also the velocity v must be double of its initial value:
v=2v_0

What current flows when a 35 v potential difference is imposed across a 1.4 kω resistor?
svetlana [45]

Current  =  (voltage) / (resistance)

              =    (35 volts) / (1,400 ohms)

              =         25 milliamperes
