The work to stretch a spring from its rest position is

               (1/2) (spring constant) (distance of the stretch)²

           E = 1/2 k x² .

You said it takes 1700 joules to stretch the spring 3 meters from its rest position, so we can write

                 1700 joules  =  1/2 k (3m)²

1 joule = 1 newton-meter

                 1700 N-m =  1/2 k  (3m)²

Multiply each side by 2:   3400 N-m  =  k · 9m²   

Divide each side by  9m²     k  =  3400 N-m / 9m²

                                                   =  (377 and 7/9)   newton per meter

 <span>W = (1/2)kx^2, where W=work required to stretch the spring from its equilibrium position
k = spring constant
x = displacement = 5 - 2 = 3m 
</span><span>1800 J = (1/2)(k)(3)^2
by solving it we get
</span><span>k = 400 answer.</span>

What type of power plant burns material to make electricity?
Alecsey [184]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: D. Coal

<h2>Why?</h2>

Coal power plants burn coal in to get steam, the steam flows into a turbine which is coupled to an electrical generator.

Coal power plants work burning high amounts of coal into a boiler, generation a lot of steam under extreme pressures. The steam is obtained when the water is heated by the burning coal, then the steam is cooled, being transformed in liquid water again (due the condensation process) and it's sent back on a cyclical process.

Have a nice day!

Eva makes a graphic organizer to compare electromagnets with solenoids. A venn diagram with 2 intersecting circles. The circle o
Eva8 [605]

The metalcore is the central component of any metal that is covered by wires. Metalcore is found in the X denoted area.

<h3>What is a solenoid?</h3>

A solenoid is a coil of wire that conducts an electric current. A solenoid is an electromagnet made out of a wire or helical coil.

When an electric current is sent through the coil, it produces a magnetic field. A solenoid is a coil that generates a magnetic field when an electric current passes through it.

When a conductive wire is used to build a loop, a solenoid is formed.

Hence the metalcore is found in the given X area.

To learn more about the solenoid refer to the link ;

In the equation for centripetal force, which expression represents the centripetal acceleration of the object? mv2 StartFraction
Sphinxa [80]

Answer: \frac{V^{2}}{r}

Explanation:

According to Newton's 2nd Law of motion the force F is proportional to the mass Fm and acceleration a:

F=m.a (1)

On the other hand, the equation for the Centripetal force is:

F=\frac{mV^{2}}{r} (2)

Where:

V is the velocity

r is the radius of the circular motion

Making (1) and (2) equal:

m.a=\frac{mV^{2}}{r} (3)

Hence:

a=\frac{V^{2}}{r} This is the expression for the centripetal acceleration

It should be noted, this acceleration is directed toward the center of the circumference of the circular motion (that's why it's called centripetal acceleration).

an auditorium measures 30.0 m ✕ 15.0 m ✕ 5.0 m. the density of air is 1.20 kg/m3. (a) what is the volume of the room in cubic fe
Fynjy0 [20]

dimension = 30.0 m ✕ 15.0 m ✕ 5.0 m.

density = 1.20 kg/m3

(a)volume = lenght * breadth * height

      = 30 * 15 * 5

      = 2250 metre cube = 2.25 cubic meter

(b)   mass of air = density * volume

        mass of air = 1.2 * 2250

mass of air = 2700kg

weight  = mass * 9.8

             = 2700 * 9.8

             = 26,460 N

  • The definition of Density is the amount of matter in a given space, or volume
  • Density = mass/volume
  • units for density kg/m^3
  • Density of water 1g/ml
  • Salt water is denser that is why  don't sink as easily.

Describe how the kidney and bladder work together to remove waste from the body. (2 points)
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

The kidneys make urine by filtering wastes and extra water from blood. Urine travels from the kidneys through two thin tubes called ureters and fills the bladder. When the bladder is full, a person urinates through the urethra to eliminate the waste.

Explanation:

Good luckkk
