Answer:

x is the displacement of spring

Explanation:

The Hooke's law gives the force acting on the spring when it is compressed or stretched. The mathematical expression for force is given by :

F=-kx

Where

k is the spring constant of and it shows the stiffness of spring.

x shows the displacement of spring when it is stretched or compressed from equilibrium position and it acts in opposite direction.

A 52 kg child on a swing is travelling at 6 m/s . What is his gravitational potential energy if he has 1000 J of the mechanical
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is "64 J".

Explanation:

The given values are:

Mass,

m = 52 kg

Velocity,

v = 6 m/s

Mechanical energy,

= 1000 J

Now,

The gravitational potential energy will be:

⇒ P.E=1000-\frac{1}{2}mv^2

           =1000-\frac{1}{2}\times 52\times (6)^2

           =1000-26\times 36

           =1000-936

           =64 \ J

If the net force on an object is in a negative direction, what will the direction of the resulting acceleration be?
Verdich [7]
Newton's 2nd law says:          Force = (mass) x (acceleration) .

I wrote Force and acceleration in bold letters because
they're both vectors ... they have size and direction.

The equation is saying that the Force and the acceleration
are both in the same direction.

In an Internal Combustion Engine, the fuel is singed in the chamber or vessel. Example: Diesel or Petrol motor utilized as a part of Cars. 
The internal engine has its vitality touched off in the barrel, as 99.9% of motors today. In an External Combustion Engine, the inner working fuel is not consumed. Here the liquid is being warmed from an outer source. The fuel is warmed and extended through the interior instrument of the motor bringing about work. Eg. Steam Turbine, Steam motor Trains. An outer burning case is a steam motor where the warming procedure is done in a kettle outside the motor.
