You place the spring vertically with one end on the floor. You then lay a 1.60 kg book on top of the spring and release the book

malfutka [58]

Answer:

Compression in the spring, x = 3.7 cm

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the book, m = 1.6 kg

It can be assumed the spring constant of the spring is, k = 840 N/m

As the book moves down, the change in potential energy of the book is converted to spring potential energy of compression. The mathematical expression is as follows :

$\dfrac{1}{2}kx^2=mgx$

$x=\dfrac{2mg}{k}$

$x=\dfrac{2\times 1.6\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2}{840\ N/m}$

x = 0.037 meters

x = 3.7 cm

So, the spring is compressed to a distance of 3.7 cm. Hence, this is the required solution.

The British gold sovereign coin is an alloy of gold and copper having a total mass of 7.988 g, and is 22-karat gold 24 x (mass o

matrenka [14]

Answers:

(a) $0.0073kg$

(b) Volume gold: $3.79(10)^{-7}m^{3}$ , Volume cupper: $7.6(10)^{-8}m^{3}$

(c) $17633.554kg/m^{3}$

Explanation:

We are told the total mass $M$ of the coin, which is an alloy of gold and copper is:

$M=m_{gold}+m_{copper}=7.988g=0.007988kg$ (1)

Where $m_{gold}$ is the mass of gold and $m_{copper}$ is the mass of copper.

In addition we know it is a 22-karat gold and the relation between the number of karats $K$ and mass is:

$K=24\frac{m_{gold}}{M}$ (2)

Finding ${m_{gold}$ :

$m_{gold}=\frac{22}{24}M$ (3)

$m_{gold}=\frac{22}{24}(0.007988kg)$ (4)

$m_{gold}=0.0073kg$ (5) This is the mass of gold in the coin

<h2>(b) Volume of gold and cupper</h2><h2 />

The density $\rho$ of an object is given by:

$\rho=\frac{mass}{volume}$

If we want to find the volume, this expression changes to: $volume=\frac{mass}{\rho}$

For gold, its volume $V_{gold}$ will be a relation between its mass $m_{gold}$ (found in (5)) and its density $\rho_{gold}=19.30g/cm^{3}=19300kg/m^{3}$ :

$V_{gold}=\frac{m_{gold}}{\rho_{gold}}$ (6)

$V_{gold}=\frac{0.0073kg}{19300kg/m^{3}}$ (7)

$V_{gold}=3.79(10)^{-7}m^{3}$ (8) Volume of gold in the coin

For copper, its volume $V_{copper}$ will be a relation between its mass $m_{copper}$ and its density $\rho_{copper}=8.96g/cm^{3}=8960kg/m^{3}$ :

$V_{copper}=\frac{m_{copper}}{\rho_{copper}}$ (9)

The mass of copper can be found by isolating $m_{copper}$ from (1):

$M=m_{gold}+m_{copper}$

$m_{copper}=M-m_{gold}$ (10)

Knowing the mass of gold found in (5):

$m_{copper}=0.007988kg-0.0073kg=0.000688kg$ (11)

Now we can find the volume of copper:

$V_{copper}=\frac{0.000688kg}{8960kg/m^{3}}$ (12)

$V_{copper}=7.6(10)^{-8}m^{3}$ (13) Volume of copper in the coin

<h2>(c) Density of the sovereign coin</h2><h2 />

Remembering density is a relation between mass and volume, in the case of the coin the density $\rho_{coin$ will be a relation between its total mass $M$ and its total volume $V$ :

$\rho_{coin}=\frac{M}{V}$ (14)

Knowing the total volume of the coin is:

$V=V_{gold}+V_{copper}=3.79(10)^{-7}m^{3}+7.6(10)^{-8}m^{3}=4.53(10)^{-7}m^{3}$ (15)

$\rho_{coin}=\frac{0.007988kg}{4.53(10)^{-7}m^{3}}$ (16)

Finally:

$\rho_{coin}=17633.554kg/m^{3}}$ (17) This is the total density of the British sovereign coin

Which of the following occurs when the fight-or-flight response is triggered?

kiruha [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system has two components, the sympathetic nervous system and the parasympathetic nervous system. The sympathetic nervous system functions like a gas pedal in a car. It triggers the fight-or-flight response, providing the body with a burst of energy so that it can respond to perceived dangers.
