Explanation:
Given that,
Weight of the friend, W = 600 N
When the friend sits on the metal frame it bends downward 4 cm, we can say that the compression in the it is 4 cm or 0.04 m
To find,
Spring constant for this chair or k
Solve :
The weight of an object is equal to the force exerted by the gravitational force, F = 600 N
According to Hooke's law, the force exerted by the spring is given by :
F = kx
k is the spring constant
k = 15000 N/m
Therefore, the spring constant of the spring is 15000 N/m.
The minimum amount of force needed to move the ball is 15N
He used the quantum mechanic theory to approach light by describing relativity and perspective.
KE= .5*M*V^2
.5*.06*50^2
=75 joules
if the distance between the objects is doubled the force is reduced by a factor of 4
<h3>Whats is gravitational force?</h3>
Gravitational force is the force of attraction between objects in the universe.
f = G * m1 * m2 / r^2
f = gravitational force
G = gravitational constant
m1 = mass of object 1
m2 = mass of object 2
r = distance between the objects
From the formular, the gravitational force and the distance is an inverse relationship so increasing the distance by a factor results to reduction of the force by the square of the factor. hence doubling the distance which is distance mutiplied by 2 will lead to reduction of the force by 2^2 = 4
Therefore: The force decreases by a factor of 4.
hope it helps
