Answer:

It can put out more force than the input force by decreasing the distance through which force is applied.
It can apply a force to an object in a different direction than the force applied to the machine.

Explanation:

Assuming the machine is a simple machine, such as a lever or pulley, the machine will not do any more work than is put into it. However, it can change the magnitude or direction (or both) of the input force required to achieve a particular output force.

Because the machine does not increase the work done, if the output force is greater, the output distance must be less.

The applicable observations are ...

It can put out more force than the input force by decreasing the distance through which force is applied.
It can apply a force to an object in a different direction than the force applied to the machine.

If a 4N weight is hung on a spring, and it extends by 0.2m, what is the spring constant (k)?

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer: 200 N/m

Explanation:

The Gravitational spring energy(Us) is equal to 1/2kx^2. So we have x as .2 m and Us as 4 N. So 4 N = 1/2 * k * .2^2. So now we solve for K and get 200 N/m.

Chi walked 100 meters in 5 minutes. She took another 15 minutes to walk another 400 meters to reach her house. What is her avera

Law Incorporation [45]

Average speed is the ratio of total distance moved by Chi in total time interval

So here we will have

Total distance = 100 m + 400 m

$d = 500 m = 0.5 km$

Total time taken = 5 min + 15 min = 20 min

$T = \frac{20}{60} = \frac{1}{3} hour$

now by the formula of average speed we know that

$v_{avg} = \frac{d}{T}$

$v_{avg} = \frac{0.5 km}{1/3 h}$

$v_{avg} = 1.5 km/h$

so average speed will be 1.5 km/h

Answer:

a)water is turning into ice it is changing it's state from liquid to solid

b)B to C ice is melting and it is changing it's state from solid to liquid

C to D water is boiling and it is changing it's state from liquid to vapours(steam)

c) temperature

At A 0

At B 0

At C 100

At D 100

Explanation: The temperature will remain 0 degrees Celsius until all the ice becomes water and the temperature will remain 100 degrees Celsius until all the water changes into steam.
