A spring with a mass attached is initially at rest. It is then stretched 2 cm by a physics student. Another physics student with

a similar mass and spring system then stretches their spring to 4 cm. Compare and contrast the potential energies of the springs after they are stretched by the students. *

The student who displaced the spring by 2 cm has less potential energy than the student who displaced the spring by 4 cm, this is because potential energy (elastic) is directly proportionate to extension (displaced amount), so as the amount of displacement of the spring is higher, then the potential energy of the springs is higher and vice versa.

A science teacher tells her class that their final project requires students to measure a specific variable and determine the ve
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The velocity measured by Jennifer and Johnny is

v_m = 34.87 m/s

The actual velocity is

v=34.15 m/s

We can calculate the % error of the students measurement as follows:

Err = \frac{v_m - v}{v}\cdot 100 = \frac{34.87 m/s-34.15 m/s}{34.15 m/s}\cdot 100 =0.021 \cdot 100 = 2.1 \%

Which is lower than the 2.5% maximum error required, so the two students will pass the test.

Pavel [41]

Answer:

125 in^3

Explanation:

Volumen de un cubo = lado ^ 3

Lado = 5

Volumen = 5 ^ 3

5^3 = 5\times 5\times 5\\\\= 125 in^3

What could damage the eardrum and bones of the middle ear?
klio [65]

Answer:

B or D

Explanation:

I wanna say B but I don't really know if it's a trick question

my explanation for D is that anvils are usually 110 decibles and ear drums usually are damaged when exposed to 82dbs or higher at a consistant rate so I'd imagine that'd be the answer I hoped this helped

0.500 kg of ethyl alcohol at 33.0°C
Bingel [31]

Answer:

26.06

Explanation:

One thing to note first is that, after the ethyl alcohol and water is mixed, the heat energy (Q) is equal for both of them. So:    

<h3>m c ΔT (water) = m c ΔT (ethyl) </h3>

Second thing to note is that ΔT is just the absolute value of the final temperature of the solution minus the initial temperature of the ethyl, or water. So the previous equation becomes:

<h3>m c (Tfin - Tinit) (water) = m c (Tfin - Tinit) (ethyl) </h3>

And since we know the mass and specific heat of the water and ethyl alcohol, we can substitute those in:

<h3>2093(Tfin - 22) = 1225(33 - Tfin) </h3>

(I wrote 33 - Tfin for ethyl because ΔT should be a positive number in this case)

Now finally we can expand out the parenthesis and use a little algebra to solve:

<h3>2093Tfin - 46046 = 40425 - 1225Tfin</h3>

Now use algebra to separate the Tfin coefficients onto one side and everything else on the other, and we get:

<h3>3318Tfin = 86471</h3>

And when you divide both sides be 3318, you get your answer of:

<h3>Tfin = 26.06118 or 26.1 for significant figures</h3>

Hope that helps!

What is 1113.28 in a sig fig?
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

6 significant figure

Explanation:

The digits 111328 all are 6 figures with no figure being zero, neither zero after the other digits. In this case, all the numbers are significant and since they are only six numbers, then this is a six significant figure. In case we add another zero after digit 8, the zero is not significant but if added either infront of 8 or 2, the zero becomes significant.
