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

Answer:
Explanation:
Ok, the average speed can be calculate with the next equation:
(1)
Basically the car cover the same distance "d" two times, but at different speeds, so:
and the total time would be the time t1 required to go from A to B plus the time t2 required to go back from B to A:
From basic physics we know:
so:
Using the previous information in equation (1)
Factoring:
(2)
Finally, replacing the data in (2)
