Answer:

0.25 m.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the spring constant of the spring.

From the diagram, we shall used any of the weight with the corresponding extention to determine the spring constant. This is illustrated below:

Force (F) = 0.1 N

Extention (e) = 0.125 m

Spring constant (K) =?

F = Ke

0.1 = K x 0.125

Divide both side by 0.125

K = 0.1/0.125

K = 0.8 N/m

Therefore, the force constant, K of spring is 0.8 N/m

Now, we can obtain the number in gap 1 in the diagram above as follow:

Force (F) = 0.2 N

Spring constant (K) = 0.8 N/m

Extention (e) =..?

F = Ke

0.2 = 0.8 x e

Divide both side by 0.8

e = 0.2/0.8

e = 0.25 m

Therefore, the number that will complete gap 1is 0.25 m.

A sled of mass m is being pulled horizontally by a constant horizontal force of magnitude F. The coefficient of kinetic friction
rusak2 [61]

I'll bite:

-- Since the sled's mass is 'm', its weight is 'mg'.

-- Since the coefficient of kinetic friction is μk, the force acting opposite to the direction it's sliding is    (μk) times (mg) .

-- If the pulling force is constant 'F', then the horizontal forces on the sled
are 'F' forward and (μk · mg) backwards.

-- The net force on the sled is  (F - μk·mg).
(I regret the visual appearance that's beginning to emerge,
but let's forge onward.)

-- The sled's horizontal acceleration is  (net force) / (mass) = (F - μk·mg) / m.
This could be simplified, but let's not just yet.

-- Starting from rest, the sled moves a distance 's' during time 't'.
We know that  s = 1/2 a t² , and we know what 'a' is.  So we can write

           s = (1/2 t²)  (F - μk·mg) / m    .

Now we have the distance, and the constant force.
The total work is (Force x distance), and the power is (Work / time).
Let's put it together and see how ugly it becomes.  Maybe THEN
it can be simplified.

Work = (Force x distance) =  F x  (1/2 t²)  (F - μk·mg) / m
 
Power = (Work / time) =    <em>F (t/2) (F - μk·mg) / m </em>

Unless I can come up with something a lot simpler, that's the answer.


To simplify and beautify, make the partial fractions out of the
2nd parentheses:
                                   <em> F (t/2) (F/m - μk·m)</em>

I think that's about as far as you can go.  I tried some other presentations,
and didn't find anything that's much simpler.

Five points,ehhh ?
