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

Why is the same side of the Moon always visible from Earth?
son4ous [18]

Answer:

Explanation:

Answer

The true fact is that C is what happens in outer space.  Both rotations take 27.3 days.  

A: The exact opposite is true. It does rotate about it's axis.

B: Again this is just plain false. Given the way we observe it, the moon must be rotating around the earth.

D. they don't. 27.3 hours and 24 hours are not the same.

Higher mass protostars enter the main sequence: at the same rate, but at a higher luminosity and temperature. slower and at a lo
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

<em>faster and at a higher luminosity and temperature.</em>

Explanation:

A protostar looks like a star but its core is not yet hot enough for fusion to take place. The luminosity comes exclusively from the heating of the protostar as it contracts. Protostars are usually surrounded by dust, which blocks the light that they emit, so they are difficult to observe in the visible spectrum.

A protostar becomes a main sequence star when its core temperature exceeds 10 million K. This is the temperature needed for hydrogen fusion to operate efficiently.

Stars above about 200 solar masses (Higher mass) generate power so furiously that gravity cannot contain their internal pressure. These stars blow themselves apart and do not exist for long if at all. A protostar with less than 0.08 solar masses never reaches the 10 million K temperature needed for efficient hydrogen fusion. These result in “failed stars” called brown dwarfs which radiate mainly in the infrared and look deep red in color. They are very dim and difficult to detect, but there might be many of them, and in fact they might outnumber other stars in the universe.

That is why higher mass protostars enter the main sequence at a <em>faster and at a higher luminosity and temperature.</em>

An ant crawls along a sidewalk with a velocity of 0.1 m/s in a direction that is 45 degrees relative to the edge of the sidewalk
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

C) 1.0 m

Explanation:

The component of the velocity parallel to the sidewalk is:

vₓ = v cos θ

vₓ = 0.1 m/s cos 45°

vₓ = 0.0707 m/s

The distance traveled after 14 seconds is:

d = vₓ t

d = (0.0707 m/s) (14 s)

d = 0.99 m

Closest answer is C) 1.0 m.
