If a spring has a spring constant of 2 N/m and it is stretched 5 cm, what is the force of the spring?

Physics
1 answer:
Lerok [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

0.1 N

Explanation:

Considering that Hooke's law, F=xk where k is the spring constant in N/m, x is extension in meters, F is spring force in N.

Converting the given extension from cm to m, we divide by 100 hence 5/100=0.05 m

Substituting 0.05 m for x and 2 N/m for k then the spring force will be

F=2*0.05=0.1 N

A car from the beginning was traveling at 27.8m/s when he stepped on the brakes and stopped. According to the DMV, this would le
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

-6.44 m/s²

Explanation:

Given:

Δx = 60 m

v₀ = 27.8 m/s

v = 0 m/s

Find: a

v² = v₀² + 2aΔx

(0 m/s)² = (27.8 m/s)² + 2a (60 m)

a = -6.44 m/s²

A researcher measures the thickness of a layer of benzene (n = 1.50) floating on water by shining monochromatic light onto the f
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

This problem relates to interference of light in thin films .

The condition of bright fringe in thin films which is sandwitched by two layers of medium having lesser refractive index  is as follows.

2nt = (2n+1) λ / 2  , n is refractive index of thin layer , t is its thickness ,  λ is wavelength of light .

2 x 1.5 t = λ / 2 , if n = 0 for minimum thickness.

2 x 1.5 t = 600 / 2 nm

t = 100 nm .

If the tension in the rope is 160 n, how much work does the rope do on the skier during a forward displacement of 270 m?
Lunna [17]

If the tension in the rope is 160 n, - 43200 J work doen by the rope on the skier during a forward displacement of 270 m.

Given,

Tension force in the rope is (T) = 160 N

Displacement of the skier (S) = 270 m

The displacement takes place in forward direction while the direction of the tension in the rope is opposite to it.

Therefore, work done by the rope on  the skier is,

   W=T.S

⇒W=270*160*cos\pi \\W=-43200 J

Hence work done by the rope is - 43200 J.

An archer puts a 0.30-kg arrow to the bowstring. An average force of 201 N is exerted to draw the string back 1.3 m. Assuming th
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

41.74 m/s

Explanation:

The energy used to draw the bowstring = the kinetic energy of the arrow.

Fd = 1/2mv²................................ Equation 1

Where F = force, d = distance move string, m = mass of the arrow, v = speed of the arrow.

make v the subject of the equation

v = √(2Fd/m)...................... Equation 2

Given: F = 201 N, m = 0.3 kg, d = 1.3 m.

Substitute into equation 2

v = √(2×201×1.3/0.3)

v = √(1742)

v = 41.74 m/s.

Hence the arrow leave the bow with a speed of 41.74 m/s
