Answer:

L_{o}=0.1224m

Explanation:

Given data

Force F=2 N

Length L=17 cm = 0.17 m

Spring Constant k=42 N/m

To find

Relaxed length of the spring

Solution

From Hooke's Law we know that

F_{spring}=k_{s}|s|\\F_{spring}=k_{s}(L-L_{o})\\ 2N=(42N/m)(0.17m-L_{o})\\2=7.14-42L_{o}\\-42L_{o}=2-7.14\\42L_{o}=5.14\\L_{o}=(5.14/42)\\L_{o}=0.1224m

What are 2 ways electromagnets are used
lisabon 2012 [21]
Electromagnets are used for various purposes but I fathom in this instance, the questioner is asking about how electromagnetics can be used to attraction or repulsion.
Example, electromagnets are used for attraction in cranes which attach them to containers in order to lift them.
Meanwhile, Maglev trains use electromagnets repulsive properties.

In a circuit, energy is transferred to a charge.<br> Where is this energy transferred from?
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

Electric current.

Explanation:

The energy result from electric current resulting from potential differences between terminals which form an Electric circuit. This energy could come from different sources like chemical, wind, light

An electric circuit is one where there is movement of electrons;this electrons acquire charge which is energy. The electrons flow due to a potential difference; you have heard water flows from a higher position to a lower one freely. The highest height is said to be at higher potential and the lower point low potential.

So it's the same with electrons.

The formular for energy on charge is Q= I × t where I is electric current and t is time.
