Answer:
(a). The spring compressed is
.
(b). The acceleration is 1.5 g.
Explanation:
Given that,
Acceleration = a
mass = m
spring constant = k
(a). We need to calculate the spring compressed
Using balance equation

....(I)
The spring compressed is
.
(b). If the compression is 2.5 times larger than it is when the mass sits in a still elevator,
The compression is given by

Here, acceleration is zero
So, 
We need to calculate the acceleration
Put the value of x in equation (I)




Hence, (a). The spring compressed is
.
(b). The acceleration is 1.5 g.

Answer:
Deductive
Explanation:
Deductive reasoning or logic is the form of logic where the reasoning process from which the conclusion is reached is based on one or more premises. Deductive logic, is a top down logic, where premises are linked with conclusion, such that true premises give a true conclusion which is reached by a process of narrowing the focus based on certainty
The question bases the conclusion on the premise that the Big Bang theory which is based on scientific evidence is several billions of years old and if the theory is correct the universe <em>(as it is today)</em> was not created six days
Answer:
30 miles
Explanation:
<u>Step 1:</u>
Divide -> 45/60= .75 miles/minute
<u>Step 2:</u>
Multiply -> .75 x 40= 30
