Answer:

Explanation:

350 N force stretches the spring by 30 cm

spring constant K = 350 / 0.30 = (350 / 0.3) N / m

To calculate work done by a spring force we proceed as follows

spring force when the spring is stretched by x = Kx

This force is variable so work done by it can be calculated by integration

Work done by it in stretching from x₁ to x₂

W = ∫ F dx

= ∫ Kx dx with limit from x₁ to x ₂

= 1/2 K ( x₂² - x₁² )

Putting the given values of x₁ = 0.50 m , x₂ = 0.8 m

Work done

= 1/2 x (350 / 0.3)x ( 0.80² - 0.50² )

= 227.50 J

How do electrons flow through a wire
aniked [119]

Every atom has electrons. When you add new electrons to the wire, they will be passed on to an atom. The electrons keep passing from atom to atom until it reaches the light source, basically. It's kinda like that one song "100 jugs of milk" or whatever it's called. Each atom passes the atom next to it an electron.

What, exactly, is moving across the medium?
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

So waves are everywhere. But what makes a wave a wave? What characteristics, properties, or behaviors are shared by the phenomena that we typically characterize as being a wave? How can waves be described in a manner that allows us to understand their basic nature and qualities?

A wave can be described as a disturbance that travels through a medium from one location to another location. Consider a slinky wave as an example of a wave. When the slinky is stretched from end to end and is held at rest, it assumes a natural position known as the equilibrium or rest position. The coils of the slinky naturally assume this position, spaced equally far apart. To introduce a wave into the slinky, the first particle is displaced or moved from its equilibrium or rest position. The particle might be moved upwards or downwards, forwards or backwards; but once moved, it is returned to its original equilibrium or rest position. The act of moving the first coil of the slinky in a given direction and then returning it to its equilibrium position creates a disturbance in the slinky. We can then observe this disturbance moving through the slinky from one end to the other. If the first coil of the slinky is given a single back-and-forth vibration, then we call the observed motion of the disturbance through the slinky a slinky pulse. A pulse is a single disturbance moving through a medium from one location to another location. However, if the first coil of the slinky is continuously and periodically vibrated in a back-and-forth manner, we would observe a repeating disturbance moving within the slinky that endures over some prolonged period of time. The repeating and periodic disturbance that moves through a medium from one location to another is referred to as a wave.

Why is specific heat important
Ad libitum [116K]
Hey!!

here is your answer >>>

Specific heat is the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit substance!. The most common example!. The specific heat of water is 1 !. And, lot of plays and animals live under the water and if the specific heat of the water would be low, then the aquatic organisms would die, but the specific heat is high and it is hard for the sun to increase the temperature!.

Hope my answer helps!

If someone walkes 1000m <br> in 20min, what is their speed?
slava [35]

Answer:

Distance - 1000m

Time - 20min

Speed - ?

Use the formula of distance ÷ time = speed.

s = d/t

s = 1000m/20min

s = 50 m/min

Hope this helps, thank you !!
