If the same fish is attached to the end of the unstretched spring and then allowed to fall from rest, through what maximum dista

nce does it stretch the spring? (Hint: Calculate the force constant of the spring in terms of the distance d and the mass m of the fish.)

Answer:

x=2d

Explanation:

initial stretch in the spring is d

so using Hook's law

at equilibrium position

k×d=mg

where k= spring constant

m= mass of fish

g= acceleration due to gravity.

d=mg/k ................ (1)

in second case  by energy conservation

1/2 kx^2=mgx

x=2mg/k

using equation 1

x=2d

Science If you want to find the energy quantum of light, you multiply the frequency of the radiation (v) by "h". What is "h"?
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

"h" signifies Planck's constant

Explanation:

In the equation energy E = h X v

The "h" there signifies Planck's constant

Planck's constant is a value, that shows the rate at which the energy of a photon increases/decreases, as the frequency of its electromagnetic wave changes.

It was named after Max Planck who discovered this unique relationship between the energy of a light wave and its frequency.

Planck's constant, "h" is usually expressed in Joules second

Planck's constant = 6.62607015 \times 10^{-34}  J.s

What is the formula of finding displacement​
xenn [34]
Displacement is the final position of the object minus the initial position of the object.
Xf - Xi. Displacement is not the distance of the object. If you go to the right 10m and to the left another 10m, your displacement is 0m. But your distance is 20m

A runner starts from rest and in 3 s reaches a speed of 8 m/s. If we assume that the speed changed at a constant rate (constant
Stells [14]

Answer:

The average speed of the runner is 4 m/s.

Explanation:

Hi there!

The average speed (a.s) is calculated by dividing the traveled distance (d) over the time needed to travel that distance (t):

a.s = d / t

So, let´s find the distance traveled in those 3 s. For that, we can use the equation of position of an object moving in a straight line with constant acceleration:

x = x0 + v0 · t + 1/2 · a · t²

Where:

x = position of the object at time t.

x0 = initial position.

v0 = initial velocity.

t = time.

a = acceleration.

If we place the origin of the frame of reference at the point where the runner starts, then, x0 = 0. Since the runner starts from rest, v0 = 0. So, the equation gets reduced to this:

x = 1/2 · a · t²

We have the time (3 s), so let´s find the acceleration. For that, we can use the equation of velocity of an object moving in a straight line with constant acceleration:

v = v0 + a · t

Where "v" is the velocity at a time "t". Since v0 = 0, then:

v = a · t

At t = 3 s, v = 8 m/s

8 m/s = a · 3 s

8/3 m/s² = a

So let´s find the position of the runner at t = 3 s (In this case, the position of the runner will be equal to the traveled distance):

x = 1/2 · a · t²

x = 1/2 · 8/3 m/s² · (3 s)²

x = 12 m

Now, we can calcualte the average speed:

a.s = d/t

a.s = 12 m / 3 s

a.s = 4 m/s

The average speed of the runner is 4 m/s.

A car is traveling at the bottom of a 9.00-meter-radius circular hill with a constant speed v. The moment the car is at the bott
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Explanation:

reading of scale = reaction force of surface R

centripetal force = R - mg = m v² / R , m is mass , v is velocity and R is radius of the circular path .

R = mg + m v² / R

given ,

m v² / R = .80 mg

v² = .80 x g x R

= .8 x 9.8 x 9 = 70.56

v = 8.4 m /s
