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

mylen [45]

Answer:

Angular acceleration, is 708.07\ rad/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial speed of the drill, \omega_i=0

After 4.28 s of constant angular acceleration it turns at a rate of 28940 rev/min, final angular speed, \omega_f=28940\ rev/min=3030.58\ rad/s

We need to find the drill’s angular acceleration. It is given by the rate of change of angular velocity.

\alpha =\dfrac{\omega_f}{t}\\\\\alpha =\dfrac{3030.58\ rad/s}{4.28\ s}\\\\\alpha =708.07\ rad/s^2

So, the drill's angular acceleration is 708.07\ rad/s^2.

jonny [76]
Gravity is universal. This force of gravitational attraction is directly dependent upon the masses of both objects and inversely proportional to the square of the distance that separates their centers. This means that as you move away from an object the gravitational force decreases.
