Answer:

(a) The equivalent spring constant is 598.485 N/m

(b) The work done is 46.926 J

Explanation:

From Hooke's law of elasticity

K (spring constant) = F/e

F is the range of force exerted = 237 - 0 = 237 N

e is the extension of bowstring = 0.396 m

K = F/e = 237/0.396 = 598.485 N/m

Work done = 1/2 Fe = 1/2 × 237 × 0.396 = 46.926 J

levacccp [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given the simultaneous equation,

3C+4D=5  .............. 1

2C+5D=2 ............... 2

Solving for the value of C and D using substitution method.

From equation 1;

3C = 5-4D

Divide both sides by 3

3C/3 =  (5-4D)/3

C = (5-4D)/3 .... 3

From equation 2:

2C+5D=2

5D = 2-2C

Divide both sides by 5;

5D/5 = 2-2C/5

D = (2-2C)/5 ..... 4

Substitute equation 4 into 3;

C = 5-4{(2-2C)/5}/3

C = [5 - (8-8C/5)]/3

C = [25-(8-8C)/5]/3

C = (17+8C)/15

15C = 17+8C

15C-8C = 17

7C = 17

C = 17/7

Substitute C = 17/7 into equation 4 to get the value of D

D = (2-2(17/7))/5

D = (2-34/7)/5

D = 14-34/35

D = -20/35

D = -4/7

<em>Hence the value of C = 17/7, D = -4/7</em>

How are the sun and Earth's moon different?(2 points)
katovenus [111]

Answer: The Sun measures 1.4 million km across, while the Moon is a mere 3,474 km across. In other words, the Sun is roughly 400 times larger than the Moon. But the Sun also happens to be 400 times further away than the Moon, and this has created an amazing coincidence.

There is a 247–m–high cliff at Half Dome in Yosemite National Park in California. Suppose a boulder breaks loose from the top of
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Vf = 69.61 m/s

Explanation:

We will use the third equation of motion to solve this problem:

2gh = V_{f}^2 - V_{i}^2\\

where,

g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

h = height of cliff = 247 m

Vf = final velocity = ?

Vi = initial velocity = 0 m/s (boulder breaks loose from rest)

Therefore,

(2)(9.81\ m/s^2)(247\ m) = V_{f}^2 - (0\ m/s)^2\\V_{f} = \sqrt{4846.14\ m^2/s^2}\\

<u>Vf = 69.61 m/s</u>

Do we have free will or is everything predestined?
S_A_V [24]
Predestination, in theology, is the doctrine that all events have been willed by God, usually with reference to the eventual fate of the individual soul. Explanations of predestination often seek to address the "paradox of free will", whereby God's omniscience seems incompatible with human free will.

Vesnalui [34]



assuming north-south along the Y-axis and east-west along the X-axis

X = total X-displacement

from the graph , total displacement along X-direction is given as

X = 0 - 20 + 60 Cos45 + 0

X = 42.42 - 20

X = 22.42 m


Y = total Y- displacement

from the graph , total displacement along Y-direction is given as

Y = 40 + 0  + 60 Sin45 + 50

Y = 90 + 42.42

Y = 132.42 m

magnitude of the net displacement vector using Pythagorean theorem is given as

magnitude : Sqrt(X² + Y²) = Sqrt(22.42² + 132.42²) = 134.31 m

Direction : tan⁻¹(Y/X) = tan⁻¹(132.42/22.42) = 80.4 deg north of east
