As part of your daily workout, you lie on your back and push with your feet against a platform attached to two stiff springs arr

anged side by side so that they are parallel to each other. When you push the platform, you compress the springs. You do an amount of work of 85.0 J when you compress the springs a distance of 0.250 m from their uncompressed length. What magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform in this position? How much additional work must you do to move the platform a distance 0.220 m farther? What maximum force must you apply to move the platform a distance 0.220 m farther?

Answer:

a) F = 680 N, b)  W = 215 .4 J , c)  F = 1278.4 N

Explanation:

a) Hooke's law is

              F = k x

To find the displacement (x) let's use the elastic energy equation

            K_{e} = ½ k x²

             k = 2 K_{e}  / x²

             k = 2 85.0 / 0.250²

             k = 2720 N / m

We replace and look for elastic force

            F = 2720  0.250

            F = 680 N

b) The definition of work is

          W = ΔEm

          W = K_{ef} - K_{eo}

          W = ½ k ( x_{f}² - x₀²)

The final distance

         x_{f} = 0.250 +0.220

        x_{f} = 0.4750 m

We calculate the work

          W = ½ 2720 (0.47² - 0.25²)

          W = 215 .4 J

We calculate the strength

          F = k x_{f}

          F = 2720 0.470

          F = 1278.4 N

17. In which layer does mantle convection occur?
Anarel [89]

Answer:

D. Asthenosphere

Explanation:

The asthenosphere is relatively plastic part of the mantle which underlies the brittle lithosphere. In the asthenosphere, it is generally believed that the rocks are in ductile state and easily moves. It is the site of convection within the earth. In mantle convection, hot and light materials rises and keeps moving into upper crustal levels till they solidify. Here also, cold and denser materials sinks deeper till they turn to melt. This differences in temperature and density sets up a convective cell within the mantle. Several convective cells are in the mantle.

What is the amount of work done when JoAnne throws a baseball 2 meters at a force of 40
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Amount of work done by Joanne = 80 joule

Explanation:

Given:

Displacement of ball = 2 meters

Force applied = 40 newtons

Find:

Amount of work done by Joanne

Computation;

Work done = Force applied x Displacement

Amount of work done by Joanne = Force applied x Displacement of ball

Amount of work done by Joanne = 40 x 2

Amount of work done by Joanne = 80 joule

Which of the following is true of greenhouse gases?
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

A. They trap energy in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Greenhouse gases are defined as gases that absorb and emit radiation within the infrared range. These gases allow the sun’s rays to pass through the ozone layer and warm the earth, but prevent this warmth from escaping atmosphere.

Greenhouse gases cause the greenhouse effect on planets. Examples of greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, ozone etc.

The sampling rate of an ADC is 8.1 kHz. What will be an appropriate cut-off frequency (break frequency) for the anti-aliasing fi
KiRa [710]

Answer:

4000 Hz

Explanation:

An anti-alias filter is usually added in front of the ADC to limit a certain range of input frequencies in order to avoid aliasing. This filter is usually a low pass filter that passes low frequencies but attenuates the high frequencies.

The Nyquist sampling criteria states that the sampling rate should be at least twice the maximum frequency component of the desired signal.

Sampling rate = 2(max input frequency)

From the relation we can find out the cut-off frequency for the anti-aliasing filter.

max input frequency = sampling rate/2

max input frequency = 8100/2 = 4050 Hz

Therefore, 4000 Hz would be an appropriate cut-off frequency for the anti-aliasing filter.
