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.

A Ray of light falling on rough surface follows the laws of reflection but no image of the object placed before it is C explain
stepladder [879]

Answer:

The light rays falling on a rough surface does follow the laws of reflection. The light rays are incident parallel on the rough surface but due to uneven surface the light rays are not reflected parallel rather they are reflected in different direction. Hence, no image is formed.

10) A soccer player kicks a soccer ball (m = 0.42 kg) accelerating from rest to 32.5m/s in 0.21s. Determine the force that sends
MaRussiya [10]

Explanation:

(10) Mass of a soccer player, m = 0.42 kg

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 32.5 m/s

Time, t = 0.21 s

We need to find the force that sends soccer ball towards the goal.

Force, F = ma

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{0.42 \times (32.5-0)}{0.21}\\\\F=65\ N

So, 65 N of force soccer ball sends towards the goal.

(11) Mass of the satellite, m = 72,000 kg

Initial speed, u = 0 m/s

Final speed, v = 0.63 m/s

Time, t = 1296 s

We need to find the force is exerted by the rocket on the satellite.

Force, F = ma

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\F=\dfrac{72,000\times (0.63-0)}{1296}\\\\F=35\ N

So, 35 N of the force is exerted by the rocket on the satellite.

Hence, this is the required solution.

1.When you give one set of washers a downward push, does it move as easily as the other set? Does it stop before it reaches the
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:No, it doesn't move easily downward because it will try to resist the movement ,due to a resistance force of inertia that it possess at rest.

Explanation:when an object has higher or larger mass it tends to resist any motion given to it unlike the one with lower mass.

The larger the mass the more resistance force an object has.
