Answer:

2.63 cm

Explanation:

Hooke's law gives that the force F is equal to cy where c is spring constant and x is extension

Making c the subject of the formula then

c=\frac {F}{y}

Since F is gm but taking the given mass to be F

c=\frac {5.4 kg}{4.3 cm}=1.2558139534883720930232558139534883720930

By substitution now considering F to be 3.3 kg

y=\frac {3.3 kg}{1.2558139534883720930232558139534883720930}=2.6277777777777 cm\approx 2.63 cm

A 36,287 kg truck has a momentum of 907,175 kg • m/s. What is the trucks velocity.
Airida [17]

Momentum = Mass x Velocity

Put the values where they belong and solve for Velocity.

In this case, since Mass is being multiplied by Velocity, to solve for be Velocity you would divide both sides by Velocity.  The velocity will equal the momentum divided by the mass.

A certain material has a mass of 565 g while occupying 50 cm3 of space. What is this material?
EastWind [94]

<u>Answer:</u>

Lead

<u>Explanation:</u>

To get the density of the material, the formula would be:

mass divided by volume which is given by d = \frac { m } { v }.

Here in this problem, we are given a mass of 565 g which occupies a volume of 50 cm^3.

So plugging the data in the above formula to find the density:

Density = \frac { 565 } { 50 } = 11.3

From the table, we can see that the material is Lead which has a density of 11.3c/cm^3.

Approximately what percent of the Moon’s surface is illuminated on a new-moon day? A) 0% B) 20% C) 50% D) 100%
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
At New Moon the percent illuminated is 0; at First and Last Quarters it is 50%; and at Full Moon it is 100%<span>. During the crescent phases the percent illuminated is between 0 and </span>50%<span> and during gibbous phases it is between </span>50%<span> and </span>100%<span>.
so it depends on the phase

When we turn on a switch it helps complete the electric circuit and the current passes from the positive to the negative in the
Schach [20]

Answer:

We don't get shocked because of the type of materials used in the switch is a poor conductor of electricity

Explanation:

Yes it is quite amazing we don't get shocked, this is because of resistance of the type of materials used in the switch (non conductors of electricity) so that when you try to put on a switch no current passes through you, mostly the material are made from plastics Or ceramics which are actually poor conductors of electricity.
