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

Briefly describe the history of the metric system as it applies to the meter and how the definition of a meter has changed over
Shalnov [3]

Answer and explanation;

In 1670 Gabriel Mouton, Vicar of St. Paul’s Church and an astronomer proposed the swing  length  of  a  pendulum  with  a  frequency  of  one  beat  per  second  as  the  unit  of length.

In 1791 the Commission of the French Academy of Sciences proposed the name meter to the unit of length. It would equal one tens-millionth of the distance from the North Pole to the equator along the meridian through Paris.It is realistically represented by the distance between two marks on an iron bar kept in Paris.

In 1889 the 1st General Conference on Weights and Measures define the meter as the distance between two lines on a standard bar that made of an alloy of 90%platinum with 10%iridium.

In 1960 the meter was redefined as 1650763.73 wavelengths of orange-red light, in a vacuum, produced by burning the element krypton (Kr-86).

In 1984 the Geneva Conference on Weights and Measures has  defined  the  meter  as  the  distance  light  travels,  in  a  vacuum,  in 1299792458⁄ seconds  with  time  measured  by  a  cesium-133  atomic  clock  which  emits  pulses  of radiation at very rapid, regular intervals.

Which type of lever is exemplified by the flexing of the forearm by the biceps brachii muscle?
ira [324]

Answer:

a third class lever

Explanation:

The third class or interpower lever is a lever that enables fast and dynamic movements. It places the power between the resistance and the support, so the resistance arm is longer than the power.

It is the most frequent type of lever in the human body and as an example we can put the action of the brachial biceps in the flexion of the elbow, where the biceps is inserted in the forearm between the elbow that is behind and the resistance that would be displaced towards the hand by the weight of the load attached to the weight of the forearm.

A good range of movements is achieved although with less force and is the most frequent type of lever in human movement, although the same joint can form different types of lever depending on the type of movement performed .

A p-wave arrives at 3:00:00 and the s-wave arrives at 3:07:20, what is the exact distance that the seismic station is away from
maxonik [38]

The exact distance from the seismic station to the epicenter is 6000 km.

<h3>Epicenter of earthquake</h3>

The earthquake's epicenter is the point above the fault location on the earth's surface.

Given that:

A p-wave arrives at 3:00:00 and the s-wave arrives at 3:07:20.

Difference in arrival time = 3:07:20 - 3:00:00 = 7 minutes 20 seconds

From the earthquake time travel graph, a time difference of 7 min 20 sec is at x = 6

The exact distance from the seismic station to the epicenter is 6000 km.
