Answer:
713.51 N/m
Explanation:
Hook's Law: This law states that provided the elastic limit is not exceeded, the extension in an elastic material is directly proportional to the applied force.
From hook's law,
F = ke ...........................Equation 1
Where F = Force exerted on the bowstring, e = Extension/compression of the bowstring, k = Spring constant of the bow.
Make k the subject of the equation,
k = F/e ............................ Equation 2
Given: F = 264 N, e = 0.37 m.
Substitute into equation 2
k = 264/0.37
k = 713.51 N/m
Hence the spring constant of the bow = 713.51 N/m
Answer:
C is the excess reactant.
Explanation:
Reaction is C + O2 --> CO2
1mol of C required to react with 1mol O2
Therefore 15 - 10 = 5moles of C will be in excess
