Answer:

c) proportional to the square of the amount the spring that is stretched from its equilibrium length

Explanation:

according to Hooke's law, the elastic potential energy of a spring is:

U_e=\frac{1}{2}*k*x^2

where:

K is the spring constant

x is the distance that the spring's is compressed.

as you can notice the distance is squared, so the energy is proportional to the square of the compressed distance.

Select the properties that apply to superconductors.

made from pure metals . . . no;
they've been made from all kinds of weird compounds and alloys.
 
conduct electricity with zero resistance . . . yes;
that's why they're called "superconductors".

produce a strong magnetic field . . . possible, but not because it's a superconductor;
just like any other conductor, the magnetic field depends on the current that's flowing in the conductor.

no loss of energy in the transfer of electricity . . .
there's no loss of energy in the current flowing in the superconductor;
but if you tried to transfer the current out of the superconductor into
something else, then there would be some loss.

A ball is thrown at 20 m/s from the ground upwards at an angle of elevation of 30°. How far away does it land? 35.35 m
mestny [16]

Answer:

35.35 m

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial velocity (u) = 20 m/s

Angle of projection (θ) = 30°

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Range (R) =.?

The range (i.e how far away) of the ball can be obtained as follow:

R = u² Sine 2θ /g

R = 20² Sine (2×30) / 9.8

R = 400 Sine 60 / 9.8

R = (400 × 0866) / 9.8

R = 346.4 / 9.8

R = 35.35 m

Therefore, the range (i.e how far away) of the ball is 35.35 m
