Answer:
B. 6 cm
Explanation:
First, we calculate the spring constant of a single spring:
where,
k = spring constant of single spring = ?
F = Force Applied = 10 N
Δx = extension = 4 cm = 0.04 m
Therefore,
Now, the equivalent resistance of two springs connected in parallel, as shown in the diagram, will be:
For a load of 30 N, applying Hooke's Law:
Hence, the correct option is:
<u>B. 6 cm</u>
Answer:
I think it is D but don't count on it
Density is defined as [mass] / [volume] .
The only choice listed with those physical dimensions is 'd' .
Answer:
the average force exerted by seatbelts on the passenger is 5625 N.
Explanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the car, u = 50 m/s
distance traveled by the car, s = 20 m
final velocity of the after coming to rest, v = 0
mass of the passenger, m = 90 kg
Determine the acceleration of the car as it hit the pile of dirt;
v² = u² + 2as
0 = 50² + (2 x 20)a
0 = 2500 + 40a
40a = -2500
a = -2500/40
a = -62.5 m/s²
The deceleration of the car is 62.5 m/s²
The force exerted on the passenger by the backward action of the car is calculated as follows;
F = ma
F = 90 x 62.5
F = 5625 N
Therefore, the average force exerted by seatbelts on the passenger is 5625 N.
