Answer:

25N

Explanation:

From hooke's law,

The force (F) is directly proportional to the extention (e) caused by the force.

This is represented mathematically as:

F & e

F = Ke

K = F /e

Therefore, we F1/e1 = F2/e2

Data obtained from the question include:

F1 (initial force) = 5N

e1 (initial extension) = 2cm = 2/100 = 0.02m

F2 (final force) =?

e2 (final extension) = 10cm = 10/100 = 0.1m

F1/e1 = F2/e2

5/0.02 = F2/0.1

Cross multiply to express in linear form as shown below:

0.02 x F2 = 5 x 0.1

Divide both side by 0.02

F2 = (5 x 0.1) / 0.02

F2 = 25N

Therefore, a force of 25N is needed to extend the spring 10cm

If you throw a ball up with a velocity of 7 m/s, how long will it take for the ball to reach the top of its path?
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

c. 0.71 [s]

Explanation:

To solve this problem we must use the following equation of kinematics.

v_{f} =v_{o} -g*t

where:

Vf = final velocity = 0 (because when the ball reaches the top, there is no movement)

Vo = initial velocity = 7 [m/s]

g = gravity acceleration = 9.81 [m/s²]

t = time [s]

Note: The negative sign of the equation means that the movement is againts the direction of the gravity acceleration.

0 = 7 - (9.81*t)\\t = 0.713 [s]

Light passes through a 0.15 mm-wide slit and forms a diffraction pattern on a screen 1.25 m behind the slit. The width of the ce
NemiM [27]

Answer:

b. 450 nm

Explanation:

The wavelength of light can be calculated by using the formula derived in Young's double slit experiment. The formula is as follows:

Δx = λL/d

Δx/2 = λL/2d

where,

Δx/2 = half distance between consecutive dark fringes = width of central maximum = 0.75 cm = 0.0075 m

λ =  wavelength of light = ?

L = Distance of Screen = 1.25 m

d = width of slit = 0.15 mm = 0.00015 m

Therefore,

0.0075 m = λ(1.25 m)/(0.00015 m)

λ = (0.0075 m)(0.00015 m)/2(1.25 m)

λ = 4.5 x 10⁻⁷ m = 450 nm

Thus, the correct option is:

<u>b. 450 nm</u>

Suppose you need to remove a nail from a board by using a claw hammer. What is the input distance for a claw hammer if the outpu
ikadub [295]
The system in the problem can be assimilated to a simple lever. The mechanical advantage (MA) of a lever is
MA= \frac{d_i}{d_o}
where d_i is the distance of application of the input force with respect to the fulcrum, and d_o the distance of the output force from the fulcrum.
In our problem, MA=5.5 and d_o = 2.0 cm. So we can find the input distance:
d_i = MA \cdot d_o = 5.5 \cdot 2.0 cm =11.0 cm

Explain the process of ionic bond formation between K( potassium a metal) and Br(bromine a nonmetal)
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
Potassium belongs to group IA of the elements. This means that it will give up one of its electrons to form the cation K+. Opposite to that is bromine in which it accepts one electrons to form the anion Br-. The binding of these elements will form KBr and is formed from transfer of electron from one element to the other. This is the mechanism of ionic bond formation.
