Why do we say that a spring is elastic? Why do we say that a spring is elastic? It does not obey Hooke's law. When deformed, it

returns to its original shape. It is made of rubber. When deformed, it does not return to its original shape.

Answer:

When deformed, it returns to its original shape

Explanation:

  • A spring is elastic.  
  • Elasticity is the property of a material to regain its shape after having been deformed.
  • It means that when the force is doubled, the amount of deformation in it gets doubled.
  • Hence, the correct option is (b) " When deformed, it returns to its original shape".

A balloon of mass M is floating motionless in the air. A person of mass less than M is on a rope ladder hanging from the balloon
Tasya [4]

Let the mass of the person be m. Total momentum is conserved (because the exterior forces on the system are balanced), especially the component in the vertical direction.

Given that,

Mass of gallon is M

Let man mass be m

Velocity of man is v

Let velocity if ballot be Vb

When the person begin to move we have

Conservation of momentum

mv + MVb=0

MVb=-mv

Vb= -(m/M) v

Given that the mass of man is less than mass of balloon. i.e. m<M

So, if m<M, then, m/M <1

Therefore, .

Vb= -(m/M) v

Vb< -v

This implies that the velocity of balloon is less than the velocity of man and if is also moving in opposite direction

So the man is moving upward, then the balloon is moving downward and it's velocity is less than the velocity of man,

The answer is C

Down with a speed less than v

Which would melt first, germanium with a melting point of 1210 k or gold with a melting point of 1064oc?
iren2701 [21]
<span>Germanium To determine which melts first, convert their melting temperatures so they're both expressed on same scale. It doesn't matter what scale you use, Kelvin, Celsius, of Fahrenheit. Just as long as it's the same scale for everything. Since we already have one substance expressed in Kelvin and since it's easy to convert from Celsius to Kelvin, I'll use Kelvin. So convert the melting point from Celsius to Kelvin for Gold by adding 273.15 1064 + 273.15 = 1337.15 K So Germanium melts at 1210K and Gold melts at 1337.15K. Germanium has the lower melting point, so it melts first.</span>

ou are out stargazing with your 13.4-cm telescope. You point your telescope at an interesting formation in the sky, which you th
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

θ = 4.716 10⁻⁶ rad

Explanation:

In order for the releases to be considered separate, they must meet the Rayleigh criterion that establishes that the maximum diffraction of one star must coincide with the first minimum of the diffraction pattern of the second star.

We use the diffraction equation for a slit

            a sin θ = m λ

The minimum occurs at m = 1

             sin θ = λ / a

Since the angles in these systems are very small, we can approximate the sine to its angle in radians

             θ = λ / a

The telescope has a circular aperture whereby polar cords should be used, which introduces a constant number

           θ = 1.22 λ / a

Let's calculate

          θ = 1.22 518 10⁻⁹ / 13.4 10⁻²

          θ = 4.716 10⁻⁶ rad
