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

A 50 kg skydiver is falling downwards and accelerating 6 m/s2 down. What is the net force on the skydiver?
Montano1993 [528]

Net Force = (mass) x (acceleration)  (Newton #2)

Net Force = (50 kg) x (6 m/s² down)

Net Force = (50 * 6) (kg-m/s² down)

<em>Net Force = 300 Newtons down</em>

The ground state energy of an oscillating electron is 1.23 eV. How much energy must be added to the electron to move it to the t
Vikki [24]

Answer:

  • The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the third excited state is  -1.153 eV
  • The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the fourth excited state is  -1.181 eV

Explanation:

Given;

Energy of electron in ground state (n = 1 ) = 1.23 eV

E₁ = 1.23 eV

Eₙ = E₁ /n²

where;

E₁ is the energy of the electron in ground state

n is the energy level,

For third excited state, n = 4

E₄ = E₁ /4²

E₄ = (1.23 eV) / 16

E₄ = 0.077 eV

Change in energy level, = E₄ - E₁ = 0.077 eV - 1.23 eV = -1.153 eV

The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the third excited state is  -1.153 eV

For fourth excited state, n = 5

E₅ = E₁ /5²

E₄ = (1.23 eV) / 25

E₄ = 0.049 eV

Change in energy level, = E₅ - E₁ = 0.049 eV - 1.23 eV = -1.181 eV

The energy that must be added to the electron to move it to the fourth excited state is  -1.181 eV

Which types of waves requires matter to carry energy? electromagnetic waves only mechanical waves only electromagnetic and mecha
gogolik [260]

Answer: Mechanical waves

Explanation:

Mechanical waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another. A sound wave is an example of a mechanical wave. Sound waves are incapable of traveling through a vacuum.
