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

gs arranged side by side so that they are parallel to each other. When you push the platform, you compress the springs. You do 80.0 J of work when you compress the springs 0.180 m from their uncompressed length.
What magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform in this position?

Answer:

The magnitude of force must you apply to hold the platform in this position = 888.89 N

Explanation:

Given that :

Workdone (W) = 80.0 J

length x = 0.180 m

The equation  for this  work done by the spring is expressed as:

W = \frac{1}{2}k_{eq}x^2

Making the spring constant k_{eq} the subject of the formula; we have:

k_{eq} = \frac{2W}{x^2}

Substituting our given values, we have:

k_{eq} = \frac{2*80}{0.180^2}

k_{eq} = 4938.27 \ N.m^{-1}

The magnitude of the force that must be apply  to the hold platform in this position is given by the formula :

F = k_{eq}x

F = 4938.27*0.180

F = 888.89 N

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

a.) The electric and magnetic fields are in phase with each other as they propagate through space.

Explanation:

Electromagnetic wave is a transverse wave in which magnetic field and electric field both induces each other as both changes with time

Here magnetic field induces electric field and similarly magnetic field induces electric field.

As we know that this is a transverse wave so here magnetic field and electric field lies in perpendicular planes. but they both propagate in same direction in such a wave that both fields reaches their maximum position and minimum positions simultaneously

So the correct answer is

a.) The electric and magnetic fields are in phase with each other as they propagate through space.

How does Kepler's first law refine the Copernican model?
AnnZ [28]
Copernicus's model states that the sun is in the center, and that the planets move around it in a circle. Kepler's first law of planetary motion says that they move around the sun in an ellipse.

A 5.31 kg object is swung in a vertical circular path on a string 2.99 m long. The acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 . If the

Answer:

T = 120.3 N

Explanation:

Since, the tension in the rope is acting against both the centripetal force and the weight of the stone. As both act downward towards center of the circle and tension acts towards point of support that is upward. So, tension will be equal to the sum of centripetal force and weight of the stone:

Tension = Centripetal Force + Weight of Stone

T = mv²/r + mg

where,

m = mass of stone = 5.31 kg

r = radius of circle = length of string = 2.99 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

Therefore,

T = (5.31 kg)(6.2 m/s)²/(2.99 m) + (5.31 kg)(9.8 m/s²)

T = 68.27 N + 52.03 N

<u>T = 120.3 N</u>
