Suppose a spring has a relaxed length of 28.3 cm. The simulation refers to this as the natural length. This is the length of the

spring when it is not stretched nor compressed by any force. When you hang a mass of 550 g on the vertical spring, the spring stretches to a new length of 38.2 cm. What is an estimate of the spring constant, k, of the spring? (Enter your answer in N/m.) Measuring only one value is not a good way to get the value, but you can an idea of the approximate size.

Answer:

Explanation:

Normal length of spring = 28.3 cm

stretched length of spring = 38.2 cm

length of extension = 38.2 - 28.3 = 9.9 cm

= 9.9 x 10⁻² m

force applied to stretch = .55 x 9.8 ( mg )

= 5.39 N

Force constant = force applied / extension

= 5.39 / 9.9 x 10⁻²

= .5444 x 10² N /m

= 54.44 N/m

Answer:

the heaviest barbell that could be lifted  is 390.6kg

Explanation:

Hello!

To solve this question you must follow the following steps

1. Find the amount of energy that can transform the body into motion, this is achieved by multiplying the breakfast consumed by the percentage of energy conversion.

W=(103Calories)(0.016)\frac{4186J}{1calorie} =6898.5J

2. We use the equation that defines the work done by a body that has weight when it is lifted, this is defined by the product of mass by gravity by height.

W=mgh

where

W=work=6898.5J

m=mass

g=gravity=9.81m/s^2

h=height=1.8m

now we solve for mass, and use the values.

m=\frac{W}{hg} =\frac{6898.5}{(1.8)(9.81)} =390.6kg

the heaviest barbell that could be lifted  is 390.6kg

the volume of a water tank is 5m×4m×2m. If the tank is half filled with water. calculate the pressure exerted at the bottom of t
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

10⁴ Pa

Explanation:

  • Volume = 5m * 4m * 2m

When the tank is half filled ,

  • Volume = 5m * 4m * 1m = 20m³

Also we know that ,

  • Density of water = 10³ kg/ m³

\longrightarrow Density = Mass/Volume

\longrightarrow 10³ kg/m³ = m/20m³

\longrightarrow m = 2 * 10⁴ kg

So that ,

\longrightarrow Weight = mg

\longrightarrow F = 2*10⁴ × 10 N

\longrightarrow F = 2 * 10⁵ N

And ,

\longrightarrow Pressure = Force/Area

\longrightarrow P = 2 *10⁵/ 5 * 4 Pa

\longrightarrow P = 10⁴ Pa

1. A force acting on an object in the upward direction is 3 N. The force that would
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

See the explanation below

Explanation:

We must perform a sum of forces on the body, that sum of forces is equal to zero. That is, the body is in balance and does not move.

ΣF = 0

3 - 3 = 0

This force is negative and acts by pointing downwards.
