Answer:

-0.4454 Joules

Explanation:

m = Mass of block = 2 kg

h = Height of extension = 17 cm = x

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Potential energy of the spring

P=mgh\\\Rightarrow P=2\times 9.81\times 0.17\\\Rightarrow P=3.3354\ J

The kinetic energy of the spring

K=\frac{1}{2}mx^2\\\Rightarrow K=\frac{1}{2}\times 200\times 0.17^2\\\Rightarrow K=2.89\ J

In this system as the potential and kinetic energy is conserved from work energy equivalence we get

W=P-K\\\Rightarrow W=2.89-3.3354\\\Rightarrow W=-0.4454\ J

The work done by friction is -0.4454 Joules

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Aluminium

Explanation:

Aluminium has the least resistance since It has 3 free electrons per atom. Its resistivity is low compared to other metals provided in the choices (gold, nichrome, tungsten). Low resistivity of metals means a high conductance of the metal referred to.

Which term is undefined?
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

The term which is considered as being undefined is referred to as a point and is therefore denoted as option A in this context.

<h3>What is a Point?</h3>

This is defined as as small round mark written on a plane which signifies the position or location of a substance. This can also be seen as a dot and is also used to separate a group of numbers such as in the case of decimals etc.

It is referred to as being undefined alongside a plane, line etc as a result of it only being explained using specific examples and descriptions unlike a segment which can be viewed and understood easily when working on the parameter.

This is therefore the reason why a point is undefined and the most appropriate choice.
