If the work done to stretch an ideal spring by 4.0 cm is 6.0 j, what is the spring constant (force constant) of this spring?

Physics
1 answer:
Alisiya [41]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The spring constant is 3750 N/m  

Explanation:

Use the following two relationships:

(Work) = (Force) x (Displacement)

(Force) = (Spring constant) x (Displacement)

=>

(Spring constant) = (Force) / (Displacement) = (Work) / (Displacement)^2

(Spring constant) = 6.0 kg.(m^2/s^2) / 0.0016 m^2 = 3750 N/m

The spring constant is 3750 N/m

A 9.5 V battery supplies a 3.5 mA current to a circuit for 7.0 h. Part A How much charge has been transferred from the negative
pychu [463]

Answer:

88.2 C

Explanation:

The current can be defined as the rate of flow of charge in a conductor.

The relation between charge current and time is given as

I = Q/T

I = current, Q= charge and T = time

that is ampere = coulomb / second

The amount of charge passed is from the negative to the positive terminal

shall be given by:

Q = I * t = 3.5mA * 7h * 3600s/h = 88.2 C

Note: take care of the units.

For the circuit shown in (Figure 1), find the potential difference between points a and b. Each resistor has
Lynna [10]

The potential difference between points a and b is zero.

<h3>Total emf of the series circuit</h3>

The total emf in the circuit is the sum of all the emf in the circuit.

emf(total) = 1.5 + 1.5 = 3.0 V

<h3>Potential difference</h3>

The potential difference between two points, a and b is calculated as follows;

V(ab) = Va - Vb

V(ab) = 1.5 - 1.5

V(ab) = 0

Thus, the potential difference between points a and b is zero.

A father fashions a swing for his children out of a long rope that he fastens to the limb of a tall tree. As one of the children
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

The centripetal acceleration of the child at the bottom of the swing is 15.04 m/s².

                     

Explanation:

The centripetal acceleration is given by:

a_{c} = \frac{v^{2}}{r}

Where:

v^{2}: is the tangential speed = 9.50 m/s

r: is the distance = 6.00 m

Hence, the centripetal acceleration is:

a_{c} = \frac{v^{2}}{r} = \frac{(9.50 m/s)^{2}}{6.00 m} = 15.04 m/s^{2}

Therefore, the centripetal acceleration of the child at the bottom of the swing is 15.04 m/s².

I hope it helps you!

As Aubrey watches this merry-go-round for a total of 2 minutes, she notices the black horse pass by 15 times. What is the period
Hunter-Best [27]
Periodic time is the time taken for one complete oscillation by a body in circular motion. In this case the merry-go round takes 2 minutes to cover 15 complete oscillations. 2 Minutes = 120 seconds
Hence, 15 oscillations takes 120 secs
         thus 1 oscillation takes 120/15 = 8 seconds
therefore the period of the merry-go-round = 8 seconds
