0.126m
<h2>
Explanation:</h2>
According to Hooke's law, the force (F) acting on a spring to cause an extension or compression (e) is given by;
F = k x e -------------------(i)
Where;
k = the spring's constant.
From the question, the force acting on the spring is the weight(W) of the mass. i.e
F = W -----------------------(ii)
<em>But;</em>
W = m x g;
where;
m = mass of the object
g = acceleration due to gravity [usually taken as 10m/s²]
<em>From equation (ii), it implies that;</em>
F = W = m x g
<em>Now substitute F = m x g into equation(i) as follows;</em>
F = k x e
m x g = k x e ------------------(iii)
<em>From the question;</em>
m = m1 = 3.5kg
k = 278N/m
<em>Substitute these values into equation (iii) as follows;</em>
3.5 x 10 = 278 x e
35 = 278e
<em>Now solve for e;</em>
e = 35/278
e = 0.126m
Therefore, the distance the spring is stretched from its unstretched length (which is the same as the extension of the spring) is 0.126m
The expression of the electric flux is
Here,
Q = Total charge enclosed in the closed surface
= Permittivity due to free space
Rearranging to find the charge,
Replacing with our values we have finally
The charge enclosed by the box is 0.1684nC
The sign of the charge can be decided by using the direction of the flux. The charge enclosed by the cube can be calculated by using the electric flux and the permitivity of free space.
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that,
The initial speed of a car, u = 0
Time, t = 18 s
Distance, d = 390 m
We need to find the acceleration of the car. Let it is a. Using the second equation of motion to find it.
or
So, the acceleration of the car is 
.
F=mg
if m doubled, F would double as well
