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.

In the simplified version of Kepler's third law, P 2 = a3, the units of the orbital period P and the semimajor axis a of the ell
Orlov [11]

Answer:

The units of the orbital period P is <em>years </em> and the units of the semimajor axis a is <em>astronomical units</em>.

Explanation:

P² = a³ is the simplified version of Kepler's third law which governs the orbital motion of large bodies that orbit around a star. The orbit of each planet is an ellipse with the star at the focal point.

Therefore, if you square the year of each planet and divide it by the distance that it is from the star, you will get the same number for all the other planets.

Thus, the units of the orbital period P is <em>years </em> and the units of the semimajor axis a is <em>astronomical units</em>.

give an example of situation in which an automobile driver can have a centripetal acceleration but no tangential speed
Mars2501 [29]

There is no need for tangential acceleration when moving in a circle at a constant speed.

<h3>What is centripetal acceleration?</h3>

centripetal acceleration refers to the speed at which a body moves through a circle. Due to the fact that velocity is a vector quantity (i.e., it has both a magnitude, the speed, and a direction), when a body travels in a circle, its direction is constantly changing, which causes a change in velocity, which results in an acceleration.

<h3>Which is an example of centripetal acceleration?</h3>

Centripetal acceleration occurs when you spin a ball on a string above your head. A car experiences centripetal acceleration when it is being driven in a circle. Additionally, a satellite in orbit around the Earth experiences centripetal acceleration.
