Answer:

Elastic Force

Explanation:

As we pull the spring from one of its end by some distance such that its length is stretched by some amount "x"

So here the restoring force on the spring is given as

F = kx

so here we know

k = coefficient of elasticity

x = change in the length of spring

So here the restoring force on the spring will be Elastic force which always act opposite to the direction of displacement of the spring

Travka [436]

Answer:

a. Potential energy decreases and Kinetic energy increases

Explanation:

Because as he comes down due to its steepness the speed of the boy or you can say his KE increases and since he comes from a high position (hill) to the lower ground his potential energy decreases simultaneously

A roller coaster cart of mass m = 223 kg starts stationary at point A, where h1 = 26.8 m and a while later is at B, were h2 = 14
Tresset [83]

Answer:

vB = 15.4 m/s

Explanation:

Principle of conservation of energy:

Because there is no friction the mechanical energy is conserve

ΔE = 0

ΔE : mechanical energy change (J)

K : Kinetic energy (J)

U: Potential energy (J)

K = (1/2)mv²

U = m*g*h

Where :

m: mass (kg)

v : speed (m/s)

h : hight (m)

Ef - Ei = 0

(K+U)final - (K+U)initial =0

(K+U)final = (K+U)initial

((1/2)mv²+m*g*h)final = ((1/2)mv²+m*g*h)initial , We divided by m both sides of the equation:

((1/2)vB² + g*hB = (1/2 )vA²+ g*hA

(1/2) (vB)² + (9.8)*(14.7) =  0 + (9.8)(26.8 )

(1/2) (vB)² = (9.8)(26.8 ) - (9.8)*(14.7)

(vB)² = (2)(9.8)(26.8 - 14.7)

(vB)² = 237.16

v_{B} = \sqrt{237.16}

vB = 15.4 m/s : speed of the cart at B

Can a light bulb work without energy transfer.
Scrat [10]

Answer:Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It can be stored, or it can be transferred i.e. from a hot object to a cool object by conduction, convection or radiation.

Two loudspeakers in a 20c room emit 686 hz sound waves along the x-axis.a. if the speakers are in phase, what is the smallest di
jeyben [28]

<u>Answer :</u>

(a) d = 0.25 m

(b) d = 0.5 m

<u>Explanation :</u>

It is given that,

Frequency of sound waves, f = 686 Hz

Speed of sound wave at 20^0\ C is, v = 343 m/s

(1) Perfectly destructive interference occurs when the path difference is half integral multiple of wavelength i.e.

d=\dfrac{\lambda}{2}........(1)

Velocity of sound wave is given by :

v=f\times \lambda

d=\dfrac{v}{2f}

d=\dfrac{343\ m/s}{2\times 686\ Hz}

d=0.25\ m

Hence, when the speakers are in phase the smallest distance between the speakers for which the interference of the sound waves is perfectly destructive is 0.25 m.

(2) For constructive interference, the path difference is integral multiple of wavelengths i.e.

d=n\lambda  ( n = integers )

Let n = 1

So, d=\dfrac{v}{f}

d=\dfrac{343\ m/s}{686\ Hz}

d=0.5\ m

Hence, the smallest distance between the speakers for which the interference of the sound waves is maximum constructive is 0.5 m.

Vedmedyk [2.9K]
If we are to place dots to teh places that have been struck by an earthquake these past 100 years, the dots would be concentrated in the east and southeast Asia region. This is because of the presence of the Pacific ring of fire. This is a major area in the Pacific Ocean where most of the earthquakes are likely to occur.
