Intro to Springs and Hooke’s law

Physics
1 answer:
wel3 years ago
6 0
A spring is an object that can be deformed by a force and then return to its original shape after the force is removed.
Springs come in a huge variety of different forms, but the simple metal coil spring is probably the most familiar. Springs are an essential part of almost all moderately complex mechanical devices; from ball-point pens to racing car engines.
There is nothing particularly magical about the shape of a coil spring that makes it behave like a spring. The 'springiness', or more correctly, the elasticity is a fundamental property of the wire that the spring is made from. A long straight metal wire also has the ability to ‘spring back’ following a stretching or twisting action. Winding the wire into a spring just allows us to exploit the properties of a long piece of wire in a small space. This is much more convenient for building mechanical devices.

A ball of mass 2 kg is kept on the hill of height 3 km. Calculate the potential energy possessed by it ?
zysi [14]
We know that -

P.E=m*g*h

Where,

m = mass

g = acceleration due to gravity

h=height

First we convert height into meters.

1 km = 1000 meters

3 km = 1000 * 3 meters = 3000 meters

So, putting the values in the above formula, and by taking 'g' = 9.8 m/s², we get-

P.E.= 2*3000*9.8

P.E.= 58800 Joules

P.E.= 58.8 kJ

What is the charge of an atom that has lost one electron?
Luden [163]

Answer:

positive

An atom has a even amount of protons, electrons, and a little less neutrons. If the atom lost one electron, then it now has a positive charge.

Hope it helps!

Calculate the minimum amount of work needed to move a 500-kg rocket payload from Earth's surface to the ISS in orbit 400,000m ab
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

2.000.000.000

Explanation:

Apply the formula:

Work = Force . Displacement

W = 500.10 . 400.000            (the 10 come from gravity)

W = 5000 . 400.000

W = 2.000.000.000 Joules

I think it is that, can be wrong.
