Initially, the spring stretches by 3 cm under a force of 15 N. From these data, we can find the value of the spring constant, given by Hook's law:
where F is the force applied, and
is the stretch of the spring with respect to its equilibrium position. Using the data, we find
Now a force of 30 N is applied to the same spring, with constant k=5.0 N/cm. Using again Hook's law, we can find the new stretch of the spring:
Answer:
Explanation:
Bimetallic strips are used in thermostats for measuring and controlling temperature. The strip is connected to a switch and as the temperature changes, the strip flexes and opens or closes a contact. They are also used in ovens for measuring temperature. An electromechanical thermostat typically contains either a bi-metal coil or a metal strip. When the temperature changes, this coil or strip will move, causing a vial containing mercury to tip to one side. The mercury flows to one end of the vial, signaling that the heating or cooling needs to be turned on.
Answer:2.67kgm/s cube
Explanation: density = mass ÷ volume = 400 ÷ 150
1.49 MPH (Miles Per Hour)
No, a body can not have its velocity constant, while its speed varies. Rather, it can have its speed constant and its velocity varying. For example in a uniform circular motion.
