Answer:

29.16 J

Explanation:

From Hook's law,

W = 1/2(ke²)..................... Equation 1

Where W = work done, k = Spring constant, e = extension.

Given: W = 9 J, e = 0.5 m.

Substitute into equation 1

9 = 1/2(k×0.5²)

Solve for k

k = 18/0.5²

k = 72 N/m.

The work done required to stretch the spring by additional 0.4 m is

W = 1/2(72)(0.4+0.5)²

W = 36(0.9²)

W = 29.16 J.

Heather and Jerry are standing on a bridge 60 m above a river Heather throws a rock straight down with a speed of 14 m/s. Jerry,
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Time elapsed   = 2.856

SECOND ROCK HAS FASTER SPEED

Explanation:

This can be achieved in 2 ways, and it is clear from the careful study that the travel time is attributed to the time required to cross the path above the bridge by the 2nd stone  i.e.

14 = 9.8 * t

t = 1.428 sec and

time between 2 splash  = 2 * 1.428 = 2. 857 sec

2nd way

let time for 1st spalsh be t and

second splash be t1.

from equation of motion

so 60 = 14t + 0.5 * 9.8 * t * t

4.9 t^2 + 14t -60 = 0

On solving, we get t = 2.351 sec

for t_1, we have some extra time, which can be divided into t2 and t3.

14 = 9.8 * t2

t2 = 1.428 sec  

total time taken by 2 is

T = 1.428 + 1.428 + 2.351

so we get t_1 = 5.207 sec

time elapsed is  = T - t

                           = 5.207 - 2.351

Time elapsed   = 2.856

SECOND ROCK HAS FASTER SPEED

Please answer correctly<br>will give the brainliest<br>Urgent​
EastWind [94]

Answer:

f (frequency) = V / y   where V is the speed of sound and y the wavelength

f = 1500 m/s / 1.5 m = 1000 / sec

T (period) = 1 / f = .001 sec

Suppose you replace the horn by a drum then the period would be the time between the beats of the drum - now if the source is moving towards the observer then the distance between crests  of the wave produced by the drum will be shortened by V * T because of the motion of the drum "towards" the observer, and since the wavelength is shorter the frequency heard by the observer will be higher, and the higher the speed of of the car the shorter the wavelength as seen by the observer and the higher the frequency.

Also, if the car is moving away from the observer then the distance between the crests of the wave emitted will be further apart, and the observer will hear a lower frequency.

Why was it difficult for people to accept a heliocentric concept of the solar system
Vsevolod [243]
Prior to the discovery and elaboration of Copernicus with the theory of heliocentricism, which states that the sun is the center of the universe and that the planets orbit around it in a circular manner. The theory of geocentrism was first published by another astronomer and philosopher, Ptolemy. As a custom in the early years of the society, people already stood for the idea that the earth is the center of the universe which is easy to believe at that time given that their perspective shows that the sun moves when observed from earth's atmosphere.

When a medium is disturbed by a wave, does it move with the wave?
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

As they vibrate, they pass the energy of the disturbance to the particles next to them, which pass the energy to the particles next to them, and so on. Particles of the medium don't actually travel along with the wave. Only the energy of the wave travels through the medium
