A force F=0.12N is aplied on spring and spring elongates by 3cm . specific constant of spring ​

Physics

PilotLPTM [1.2K]3 years ago
4 0

The spring constant is 4 N/m

Explanation:

When a spring is stretched/compressed by the application of a force, the relationship between the magnitude of the force applied and the elongation of the spring is given by Hooke's law:

F=kx

where

F is the magnitude of the spring applied

k is the spring constant

x is the elongation of the spring, relative to its equilibrium position

For the spring in this problem, we have:

F = 0.12 N (force applied)

x = 3 cm = 0.03 m (elongation of the spring)

Therefore, we can solve the formula for k to find the spring constant:

k=\frac{F}{x}=\frac{0.12}{0.03}=4 N/m

What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitational equilibrium? What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitation
JulijaS [17]

Question:

What two forces are balanced in what we call gravitational equilibrium?

A) the electromagnetic force and gravity

B) outward pressure and the strong force

C) outward pressure and inward gravity

D) the strong force and gravity

E) the strong force and kinetic energy

Answer:

The correct answer is C) Outward Pressure and Inward gravity                                                        

Explanation:

Gravitational equilibrium is a balance between the inward pull of gravity and the outward push of internal gas pressure. It also refers to the condition of a star in which the weight of overlying layers at each point is balanced by the total pressure at that point.

As the weight increases in the lower layers of the sun, the pressure also increases to maintain this balance.   So you find that the outward push of pressure balances the inward pull of gravity thus creating an equilibrium.

Why is gravitational equilibrium important?

The simple answer is <u>balance. </u> If for instance the sun as a stable star (which has gravitational equilibrium) loses it's balance, it becomes highly unstable and prone to violent outbursts. These outbursts are caused by the very high radiation pressure at the star's upper layers, which blows significant portions of the matter at the "surface" into space during eruptions that may rage for several years. Of course such a condition is adverse to the existence and support of life.

Cheers!

You are riding in the passenger seat of a car as it goes around a tight turn. You slide across the seat to the passenger side do
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

1. b. The door is exerting a centripetal force on you that balances the centrifugal force of the turn.

2. b. There is no net force acting on the object.

Explanation:

1. This is because as you move to the right due to the centrifugal force of the turn, a corresponding centripetal force acts on you due to the door which does not allow you fall out of the car since,<u> the door is exerting a centripetal force on you that balances the centrifugal force of the turn. </u>

So, the answer is b

2. This is because, since the object moves at a constant speed and thus does not accelerate, no net force can act on it since, a net force would imply that the object accelerates. Note that a constant speed does not imply that no force acts on it. It only shows that the resultant or net force is zero since the object does not accelerate.

So, <u>there is no net force acting on the object. </u>

So, b is the answer.

A rubber ball that sits motionless near the edge of a tall bookshelf has no kinetic energy. However, it does have mechanical
klio [65]

It is possible because the rubber ball has mechanical energy which is equal to potential energy.

<h3>What is mechanical energy?</h3>

Mechanical energy of an object is the total energy possessed by the object, including the potential energy and the kinetic energy.

M.A = K.E + P.E

<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion.

<h3>What is potential energy?</h3>

Potential energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its position.

When kinetic energy (K.E) = 0

M.A = P.E

Thus, it is possible because the rubber ball has mechanical energy which is equal to potential energy.
