Answer:

W = 55.12 J

Explanation:

Given,

Natural length = 6 in

Force = 4 lb,  stretched length = 8.4 in

We know,

F = k x

k is spring constant

4 = k (8.4-6)

k = 1.67 lb/in

Work done to stretch the spring to 10.1 in.

W =k\int_{6}^{10.1} x

W = \dfrac{k}{2}[x^2]_6^{10.1}

W = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.67\times (10.1^2-6.0^2)

W = 55.12 J

Work done in stretching spring from 6 in to 10.1 in is equal to 55.12 J.

Can someone help me ASAP!!!!
madam [21]
The US English System of measurement grew out of the manner in which people secured measurements using body parts and familiar objects. For example, shorter ground distances were measured with the human foot and longer distances were measured by paces, with one mile being 1,000 paces. Capacities were measured with household items such as cups, pails (formerly called gallons) and baskets.

The key idea of the transformation called translation is the gliding or sliding of every point in the plane the same direction.
Mrrafil [7]
That statement is true.

There are several definitions about transformation called translation, but the key idea is the gliding or sliding of every point in the plane the same direction.

Hope this helps

Assign a positive velocity to the red box and negative velocity to the blue box. Are they moving in opposite direction?
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

<em>Yes, they are moving in opposite direction one to the other.</em>

Explanation:

Velocity is a vector quantity, which means that it has both magnitude and direction. The magnitude shows the size of the velocity, and the direction shows which way it is moving in reference to a chosen reference direction. If the red box is assigned a positive velocity, and the blue box is assigned a negative velocity, as indicated in the question, then it means that the red box, and the blue box, both move in opposite direction to the other.

How much energy is required to raise the temperature of 50.0 grams of water 10.0 degree C? (Explain yourself answer in joules!)
maria [59]

The amount of energy needed is 2093 J

Explanation:

The amount of energy needed to increase the temperature of a substance by \Delta T is given by the equation

Q=mC\Delta T

where

m is the mass of the substance

C is its specific heat capacity

\Delta T is the increase in temperature

For the water in this problem, we have

m = 50.0 g = 0.050 kg

C=4186 J/g^{\circ}C (specific heat capacity of water)

\Delta T=10.0^{\circ}C

Therefore, the amount of energy needed is

Q=(0.050)(4186)(10)=2093 J
