Hello!

Using Hooke's law, F spring=k delta x, find the distance a spring with an elastic constant of 4 N/cm will stretch if a 2 newton force is applied to it.

Data:

Hooke represented mathematically his theory with the equation:

F = K * Δx  

On what:

F (elastic force) = 2 N

K (elastic constant) = 4 N/cm

Δx (deformation or elongation of the elastic medium or distance from a spring) = ?

Solving:


F = K * \Delta{x}

2\:N = 4\:N/cm*\Delta{x}

4\:N/cm*\Delta{x} = 2\:N

\Delta{x} = \dfrac{2\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!N}{4\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!N/cm}

simplify by 2

\Delta{x} = \dfrac{2}{4}\frac{\div2}{\div2}

\boxed{\boxed{\Delta{x} = \dfrac{1}{2}\:cm}}\Longleftarrow(distance)\end{array}}\qquad\checkmark

Answer:

B.) 1/2 cm

calculate the electric field strength between two parallel plates separated by 0.50 cm, across which is a potential of 12 volts.
Alexxandr [17]
Formula for Electric Field strength , E =  V/d

where V = Voltage in volts, and d = distance of separation in meters.

d = 0.5 cm = 0.005 m,    V = 12 V

E = V/d =  12 / 0.005

E = 2400

Electric Field Strength = 2400 Volts/meter

Si un cuerpo adquiere una carga de -0,02 C, ha ganado o ha perdido electrones? Cuantos?
sammy [17]

Question :

If a body acquires a charge of -0.02 C, has it gained or lost electrons? Many?

Solution :

We know, charge gained is shown by negative sign.

Since, charged acquired is given as -0.02 C .

Therefore, it is body has gained electrons.

Now, number of electrons is given by :

n = \dfrac{net\ charge}{charge \  on \ one \  electron}\\\\n = \dfrac{-0.02}{-1.60 \times 10^{-19}}\\\\n = 1.25\times 10^{17}

Hence, this is the required solution.
