A spring hangs from the ceiling with an unstretched length of x 0 = 0.35 m . A m 1 = 6.3 kg block is hung from the spring, causi

ng the spring to stretch to a length x 1 = 0.50 m . Find the length x 2 of the spring when a m 2 = 3.7 kg block is hung from the spring. For both cases, all vibrations of the spring are allowed to settle down before any measurements are made.

Answer:

x₂=0.44m

Explanation:

First, we calculate the length the spring is stretch when the first block is hung from it:

\Delta x_1=0.50m-0.35m=0.15m

Now, since the stretched spring is in equilibrium, we have that the spring restoring force must be equal to the weight of the block:

k\Delta x_1=m_1g

Solving for the spring constant k, we get:

k=\frac{m_1g}{\Delta x_1}\\\\k=\frac{(6.3kg)(9.8m/s^{2})}{0.15m}=410\frac{N}{m}

Next, we use the same relationship, but for the second block, to find the value of the stretched length:

k\Delta x_2=m_2g\\\\\Delta x_2=\frac{m_2g}{k}\\\\\implies \Delta x_2=\frac{(3.7kg)(9.8m/s^{2})}{410N/m}=0.088m

Finally, we sum this to the unstretched length to obtain the length of the spring:

x_2=0.35m+0.088m=0.44m

In words, the length of the spring when the second block is hung from it, is 0.44m.

Mean is the same thing as average, so to find this you would add all of the numbers together and divide them by the amount of numbers you added. For example, (6+9+11)/3

Median is the middle number of the list of numbers, but you have to put them in numerical order first. If there is not an exact middle, you would add the middle two together and divide by two.

Mode is the number that occurs most often within the list of numbers.

Which statement is not correct for lamps connected in parallel
ycow [4]

Answer:

This question is not complete but the completed question is below

Which statement is not correct for lamps connected in parallel?

A They can be switched on and off separately.

B They will remain bright if another lamp is connected in parallel.

C They share the supply voltage equally between them.

D They still operate if one lamp is removed.

The correct option is A

Explanation:

Lamps connected in series have the same voltage running across each lamp in the connection and will thus have the same brightness if any lamp is added or removed. This property also means they can only be switched on and off by a single switch, hence option A is not correct about lamps connected in parallel.
