Answer:

Spring constant of the spring will be 68.6 N/m

Explanation:

It is given mass which is vertically hung m = 6.80 kg

Spring is stretched by length of 0.1 m , so x = 0.210 m

Acceleration due to gravity will be equal to g=9.8m/sec^2

Force on the mass which is vertically hung will be equal to mg

This force will be balanced by spring force acting on the mass

And spring force is equal to F = Kx

So kx = mg

k\times 0.1=0.7\times 9.8

k = 68.6 N /m

So spring constant of the spring will be equal to 68.6 N/m

A battery is replaced with one of lower emf. State and explain how the resistance of the lamps would have to change in order to
kow [346]

The brightness of the lamp is proportional to the current flowing through the lamp: the larger the current, the brighter the lamp.

The current flowing through the lamp is given by Ohm's law:

I=\frac{V}{R}

where

V is the potential difference across the lamp, which is equal to the emf of the battery, and R is the resistance of the lamp.

The problem says that the battery is replaced with one with lower emf. Looking at the formula, this means that V decreases: if we want to keep the same brightness, we need to keep I constant, therefore we need to decrease R, the resistance of the lamp.

If the volume is held constant, what happens to the pressure of a gas as temperature is decreased? Explain.
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:Decreases

Explanation:

Given

Volume is held constant that is it is a isochoric process.

We know that

PV=nRT

as n,V& R are constant therefore only variables are

P & T

so \frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

\frac{P_1}{P_2}=\frac{T_1}{T_2}

As T_1 is decreasing therefore Pressure must also decrease so that ratio remains constant.

A spring stretches 5 cm when a 300-N mass is suspended from it. Calculate the spring constant in N / m .
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Spring constant in N / m = 6,000

Explanation:

Given:

Length of spring stretches = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Force = 300 N

Find:

Spring constant in N / m

Computation:

Spring constant in N / m = Force/Distance

Spring constant in N / m = 300 / 0.05

Spring constant in N / m = 6,000
