A very light ideal spring having a spring constant (force constant) of 8.2 N/cm is used to lift a 2.2-kg tool with an upward acc
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

x = 3.5 cm

Explanation:

When spring is used as a lift tool

so the mass suspended on it will have spring force on it

So as per the force equation of mass we can say

F_{net} = ma

now net force on the mass is

F_{net} = kx - mg

F_{net} = kx - mg = ma

here we have

kx = mg + ma

now we have

x = \frac{mg + ma}{k}

x = \frac{2.2(9.8) + 2.2(3.25)}{8.2}

x = 3.5 cm

A uranium nucleus 238U may stay in one piece for billions of years, but sooner or later it decays into an α particle of mass 6.6
ale4655 [162]

Answer: The recoil speed is - 8.9604.10^{4} m/s.

Explanation: According to the Third Law of Newton, every action has an oppsite and equal reaction, and the Second Law of Newton, Force=mass·acceleration. Acceleration is a variation in velocity by any given time, so Force = mass·velocity·time.

Combining the two laws, there is : m1·v1 = - m2·v2. This is the Law of Conservation of Momentum.

Substituting and calculating:

v2 = - (\frac{m1}{m2}) · v1

v2 = - \frac{6.64.10^{-27} }{3.88.10^{-25} } · 5.24.10^{6}

v2 = - 8.9604.10^{4}

The recoil speed of the thorium nucleus is - 8.9604.10^{4}m/s.

Korolek [52]
The main (and only) purpose of the turbine in the turbo jet engine is to drive the air compressor. The turbojet engine works by compressing the air using an inlet and a compressor, then mixing the fuel with the compressed air, then passing the mixture to the combustor, then passing the high pressure air through a turbine and a nozzle.

How many times did thomas edison mess up the light bulb
Umnica [9.8K]
<h2>Answer: 10,000 times </h2>

Thomas Alva Edison was a North American scientist and inventor who is credited with the design of the electric bulb and many other patented inventions.

However, the bulb did not come out on the first attempt, and was sometimes questioned by his repeated "failures". But his patience and perseverance paid off, after approximately 10,000 attempts, he managed to obtain an incandescent bulb that would last for a long time.

It should be noted that Edison was once asked if he considered that he had had many failures before making the bulb work, hence his famous phrase:

<h2><em>“I have not failed 10,000 times—I’ve successfully found 10,000 ways that will not work.” </em></h2>

That is why Edison is considered an example of perseverance.
