F = k x

k = 2 g/6.1 cm

The ideal spring equation is

                               Stretch  =  K  times  Force  .

This says that the stretch is directly proportional to the force.
In simple English, that means that if you double the force, then
you double the stretch, and if you multiply the force by  π  or
any other number, you multiply the stretch by the same number.

So you can always write a proportion for a spring:

                 Stretch₁ / Force₁  =  Stretch₂ / Force₂ .

In this question, the force is increased to  (2.2 / 2.0) =  1.1 times .

So the stretch is also increased to  1.1 times .

The speed of sound in air is 345 m/s. A tuning fork vibrates above the open end of a sound resonance tube. If sound waves have w
Delvig [45]

To develop this problem it is necessary to apply the concept of Frequency based on speed and wavelength.

According to the definition the frequency can be expressed as

f = \frac{v}{\lambda}

Where,

v = Velocity

\lambda = Wavelength

Our value are given by,

v = 345m/s

\lambda = 63cm

Replacing

f = \frac{345}{0.63}

f = 547.61Hz

Therefore the frequency of the tuning fork is 547.61Hz

Kamila [148]

Answer:

Option b. is correct

Explanation:

An RLC electrical circuit consists of constituent components: a resistor (R), an inductor (L), and a capacitor (C). A resistor, an inductor, and a capacitor are connected in series or parallel.

The impedances of the circuit elements depend on the frequency.

Both impedance magnitudes decrease when the frequency increases

A 10kg oil is heated by a source of heat that supplies 800J of heat every minute. Calculate The heat added to oil after 30 minut
goblinko [34]

Answer:

4,200 joules per kilogram per degree Celsius

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity of a material is the energy required to raise one kilogram (kg) of the material by one degree Celsius (°C). The specific heat capacity of water is 4,200 joules per kilogram per degree Celsius (J/kg°C). This means that it takes 4,200 J to raise the temperature of 1 kg of water by 1°C.

A car travels along a straight line at a constant speed of 60.0 mi/h for a distance d and then another distance d in the same di
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

velocity during second d = 20.0 mi/h

Explanation:

Total distance travelled is 2d, with an average velocity of 30.0 mi/h you can express the time travelled in terms of d:

distance = velocity * time

time = distance / velocity

time = 2d/30.0

The time needed for the first d at 60.0 is:

time = d/60.0

The time in the second d you can get it by substracting both times (total time - time for the first d)

second d time = 2d/30.0 - d/60.0

= 4d/60.0 - d/60.0

= 3d/60.0

and with the time (3d/60.0) and the distance travelled (d) you can get the velocity:

velocity = distance / time

velocity = d / (3d/60.0)

= 60.0/3 = 20.0 mi/h
