Answer:

D) 7500 N/m

Explanation:

Given :

Work done by the spring, W = 6 J

Stretch in the spring, x = 4 cm = 0.04 m

Consider k be the spring constant.

The relation between work done and stretch of the spring is:

W=\frac{1}{2}kx^{2}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

6=\frac{1}{2}k(0.04)^{2}

k=\frac{12}{1.6\times10^{-3} }

k = 7500 N/m

Two planes leave wichita at noon. one plane flies east 30 mi/h faster than the other plane, which is flying west. at what time w
scoundrel [369]
You have to take note of the individual directions of the plane. Since one is heading east, and the other is heading west, the planes are heading at opposite directions. So, it means that their distance between each other would be equal to 1,200 miles which accounts for the sum of their individual distances. The equation is as follows:

Total Distance = Distance of slower plane + Distance of faster plane
1,200 miles = st + (30+s)(t)
where
s is the speed of the slower plane and t is the time. Since both are not given, the final answer would just be in terms of s.
1,200 = t(s + 30 + s)
t = 1200/(30+2s)
t = 600/(15+s)

A paper airplane with mass 0.1 kg is flying 1.5 m above the ground with a speed of 2 m/s. What is the total mechanical energy of
Wewaii [24]
Total mechanical energy = kinetic energy + potential energy
E = KE + PE
E = ½mv² + mgh
E = ½(0.1 kg)(2 m/s)² + (0.1 kg)(9.8 m/s²)(1.5 m)
E = 0.2 J + 1.47 J
E = 1.67 J
