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

You are tossing a ball directly up into the air. Before the ball leaves your hand, you are exerting a force directed against the

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

F n = 0.2 N

Explanation:

given,

you are exerting force of 10 N on the ball.

mass of the ball = 1 kg

acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

normal force on the ball = ?

normal force is force exerted by the object to counteract the force from other object.

normal force acting on the ball will be

F n = F - mg

F n = 10 - 1 × 9.8

F n = 10 -9.8

F n = 0.2 N

Hence, normal force acting on the ball is equal to 0.2 N

Jessica has a mass of 55kg she sleds down a hill that has a slope of 32 degrees. what is the component of her weight that is alo

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

W = 285.62 N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of Jessica is 55 kg

Slope of the hill is 32 degrees

We need to find the component of her weight that is along her direction of motion.

The component along her direction of motion is shown in attached figure. It means

$W_y=mg\sin\theta\\\\W_y=55\times 9.8\times \sin(32)\\\\W_y=285.62\ N$

So, the component of her weight that is along her direction of motion is 285.62 N.
