Answer:

The amount of work done required to stretch spring by additional 4 cm is 64 J.

Explanation:

The energy used for stretching spring is given by the relation :

E = \frac{1}{2}kx^{2}           .......(1)

Here k is spring constant and x is the displacement of spring from its equilibrium position.

For stretch spring by 2.0 cm or 0.02 m, we need 8.0 J of energy. Hence, substitute the suitable values in equation (1).

8 = \frac{1}{2}\timesk\times k \times(0.02)^{2}

k = 4 x 10⁴ N/m

Energy needed to stretch a spring by 6.0 cm can be determine by the equation (1).

Substitute 0.06 m for x and 4 x 10⁴ N/m for k in equation (1).

E = \frac{1}{2}\times4\times10^{4}\times (0.06)^{2}

E = 72 J

But we already have 8.0 J. So, the extra energy needed to stretch spring by additional 4 cm is :

E = ( 72 - 8 ) J = 64 J

A 49 kg person is being dragged in their sleeping bag to the lake by a 593 N
crimeas [40]

Answer:

f = 485.62 N

Explanation:

Since, the bag is moving with some acceleration. Hence, the unbalanced force will be given as:

Unbalanced Force = Horizontal Component Applied Force - Frictional Force

Unbalanced Force = Fx - f

But, from Newtons Second Law of Motion:

Unbalanced Force = ma

comparing the equations:

ma = Fx - f

f = F Cos θ - ma

where,

f = frictional force  = ?

F = Applied force  = 593 N

m = mass of person = 49 kg

a = acceleration = 0.57 m/s²

θ = Angle with horizontal = 30°

Therefore,

f = (593 N)(Cos 30°) - (49 kg)(0.57 m/s²)

f = 513.55 N - 27.93 N

<u>f = 485.62 N</u>

How is the direction of a vector affected when it is multiplied by a scalar?
pantera1 [17]
The direction of a vector multiplied by a scalar is only affected if the scalar is negative, in which case the vector will now be in the opposite direction. If the scalar is positive, the vector will only change in magnitude

Which energy output objects work with the turbine
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The energy output object that works with the turbine is the alternator (generator)

Explanation:

In energy generation the turbine receives input energy from high pressured steam, high energy water etc. Which impinges and turn the blades of the turbine, this turbine is connected by means of a shaft to the alternator that converts the rotational motion of the shaft to electrical energy through Electro magnetic induction principles and also outputs the energy for consumption.
