To solve this problem, we need to use Hooke's Law. 

Hooke's Law: 

F = -kx

where F = mg
m = mass of the object
g = gravitational force
k = spring constant
x = length of stretch of the spring

Solve for the spring constant, k:

2.0 kg * 9.81 m/s^2 = -k*(6.1cm/100cm/m)

k = 321.64 

The stretch of the spring with mass of 2.5 kg is then determined: 

2.5 kg * 9.81 m/s^2 = -321.64 *(x)
x = 7.62 cm

8. A car initially has 100 J of total energy. After driving down the road, the car's
sveta [45]

The work done on the car is -20 J.

Work done on the car is negative, meaning that the car actually does work on the external system.

<h3>Energy and law of conservation of energy</h3>
  • Energy is the ability to do work
  • the law of conservation of energy states that the total energy in a system is conserved

From the law of conservation of energy, the initial energy of the car before it moves down the road remains constant or unchanged.

  • Initial energy = 100 J
  • Initial energy = Final energy - work done on car
  • Final Energy = Work done on car + initial energy

80J = Work done on car + 100 J

Work done on car = 80 - 100J

Work done on car = -20 J

Hence, the work done on the car is -20 J

Work done on car is negative.

Since work done on the car is negative, it means that the car actually does work on the external system. Hence, the decrease in the energy of the car.

A flat surface is in a uniform magnetic field. Given only the area of the surface and the magnetic flux through the surface, it
Tasya [4]

Answer:

Given the area A of a flat surface and the magnetic flux through the surface \Phi it is possible to calculate the magnitude \frac{\Phi}{A}=B\ cos \theta.

Explanation:

The magnetic flux gives an idea of how many magnetic field lines are passing through a surface. The SI unit of the magnetic flux \Phi is the weber (Wb), of the magnetic field B is the tesla (T) and of the area A is (m^{2}). So 1 Wb=1 T.m².

For a flat surface S of area A in a uniform magnetic field B, with \theta being the angle between the vector normal to the surface S and the direction of the magnetic field B, we define the magnetic flux through the surface as:

                                                     \Phi=B\ A\ cos\theta

We are told the values of \Phi and B, then we can calculate the magnitude

                                                      \frac{\Phi}{A}=B\ cos\theta
