(a) 392 N/m
Hook's law states that:
(1)
where
F is the force exerted on the spring
k is the spring constant
is the stretching/compression of the spring
In this problem:
- The force exerted on the spring is equal to the weight of the block attached to the spring:

- The stretching of the spring is

Solving eq.(1) for k, we find the spring constant:

(b) 17.5 cm
If a block of m = 3.0 kg is attached to the spring, the new force applied is

And so, the stretch of the spring is

And since the initial lenght of the spring is

The final length will be

Using the principle of floatation.
u = w............(a)
Upthrust of fluid is equal to the weight of the object.
Let the volume of the wood be V.
The upthrust u, is related to the volume submerged in water, and that is 1/5 of it volume, that is (1/5)V = 0.2V
Formula for upthrust, u = vdg
where v = volume of fluid displaced
d = density of fluid
g = acceleration due to gravity
weight, w = mg
where m = mass
g = acceleration due to gravity
From (a)
u = w
vdg = mg Cancel out g
vd = m
The v is equal to 0.2V, which is the submerged volume. Notice that the small letter v is volume of fluid displaced, and capital V is the volume of the solid.
d is density of fluid which is water in this case, 1000 kg/m³
0.2V * 1000 = m
200V = m
Hence the mass of the object is 200V kg.
But Density of solid = Mass of solid / Volume of solid
= 200V / V
= 200 kg/m³
Density of solid = 200 kg/m³
Answer:
A + B = C Ax = 2 Ay = 0 Bx = 0 By = 6
Ax + Bx = Cx = 2
Ay + By = Cy = 6
C = (2^2 + 6^2)^1/2 = 6.32
Tan Cy / Cx = 6 / 2 = 3
Cy at 71.6 deg
Answer:
The workdone is 
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The height of the cylinder is 
The face Area is 
The density of the cylinder is 
Where
is the density of freshwater which has a constant value

Now
Let the final height of the device under the water be 
Let the initial volume underwater be 
Let the initial height under water be 
Let the final volume under water be 
According to the rule of floatation
The weight of the cylinder = Upward thrust
This is mathematically represented as


So 
=> 
Now the work done is mathematically represented as
