Answer:
The sun heats the earth through radiation. Since there is no medium (like the gas in our atmosphere) in space, radiation is the primary way that heat travels in space. When the heat reaches the earth it warms the molecules of the atmosphere, and they warm other molecules and so on.
Answer:
Imp = 25 [kg*m/s]
v₂= 20 [m/s]
Explanation:
In order to solve these problems, we must use the principle of conservation of linear momentum or momentum.
1)
where:
m₁ = mass of the object = 5 [kg]
v₁ = initial velocity = 0 (initially at rest)
F = force = 5 [N]
t = time = 5 [s]
v₂ = velocity after the momentum [m/s]
![(5*0) +(5*5) = (m_{1}*v_{2}) = Imp\\Imp = 25 [kg*m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%285%2A0%29%20%2B%285%2A5%29%20%3D%20%28m_%7B1%7D%2Av_%7B2%7D%29%20%3D%20Imp%5C%5CImp%20%3D%2025%20%5Bkg%2Am%2Fs%5D)
2)
![(m_{1}*v_{1})+(F*t)=(m_{1}*v_{2})\\(0.075*0)+(30*0.05)=(0.075*v_{2})\\v_{2}=20 [m/s]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%28m_%7B1%7D%2Av_%7B1%7D%29%2B%28F%2At%29%3D%28m_%7B1%7D%2Av_%7B2%7D%29%5C%5C%280.075%2A0%29%2B%2830%2A0.05%29%3D%280.075%2Av_%7B2%7D%29%5C%5Cv_%7B2%7D%3D20%20%5Bm%2Fs%5D)
Answer:
k1 + k2
Explanation:
Spring 1 has spring constant k1
Spring 2 has spring constant k2
After being applied by the same force, it is clearly mentioned that spring are extended by the same amount i.e. extension of spring 1 is equal to extension of spring 2.
x1 = x2
Since the force exerted to each spring might be different, let's assume F1 for spring 1 and F2 for spring 2. Hence the equations of spring constant for both springs are
k1 = F1/x -> F1 =k1*x
k2 = F2/x -> F2 =k2*x
While F = F1 + F2
Substitute equation of F1 and F2 into the equation of sum of forces
F = F1 + F2
F = k1*x + k2*x
= x(k1 + k2)
Note that this is applicable because both spring have the same extension of x (I repeat, EXTENTION, not length of the spring)
Considering the general equation of spring forces (Hooke's Law) F = kx,
The effective spring constant for the system is k1 + k2
