Answer:

K = 40N/m

Explanation:

According to Hooke’s law

Energy = 1/2 kx^2

K is the spring constant

x = displacement

From the question

Energy =5J

x = 0.5m

K = ?

Using the above formula,

We have

5 = 1/2 x k x (0.5)^2

5 = 1/2 x k x (0.5 x 0.5)

5 = 1/2 x k x 0.25

5 = 0.25k/ 2

Cross multiply

5 x 2 = 0.25k

10 = 0.25k

Divide both sides by 0.25 to get k

10/0.25 = 0.25k/ 0.25

40 = k

K = 40N/m

Ede4ka [16]

Explanation:

mass(m)=20kg

velocity(v)=d/t=2.67

k.e=?

now,

k.e=1/2mv^2

=1/2*20*(2.67)^2

=71J

Does wind have atoms and molecules in it?
Likurg_2 [28]
<span>
Of course.  Wind is air in motion, and the gases in air are composed of
all the usual familiar stuff ... atoms, molecules, mass, etc.  That's how
the wind moves things ... it has momentum and kinetic energy, which
get transferred to the things that move in the wind.</span>

A trunk rotation is a common dyamic flexibility assessment ture or false
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

True. It would be false if the statement was "trunk rotation is the most common <em>static</em> flexibility assessment."


So, you're answer should be "true". Hope that helped!

A line of dominos is knocked down. Which explanation is true?
Llana [10]

B: an increase in acceleration caused an increase in force.

This is based on the concept of force on an object.

Now, formula for force is commonly known as;

Force = mass × acceleration

Now, mass and acceleration are the input values that make the output which is the Force to either increase or decrease.

  • Now, for the line of dominoes to fall, it means that the force was so overwhelming that the dominoes couldn't resist it.

Now, this output which is the force became so much as a result of the increase in acceleration of the motion that triggered its movement.

Moreover, the force is directly proportional to the acceleration!

Thus, we can say that an increase in acceleration caused an increase in force.
