Use Hooke's Law to determine the variable force in the spring problem. A force of 450 newtons stretches a spring 30 centimeters.

How much work is done in stretching the spring from 40 centimeters to 70 centimeters?

Answer:

Work Done = 67.5 J

Explanation:

First we find the value of spring constant (k) using Hooke's Law. Hooke's is formulated as:

F = kx

where,

F = Force Applied = 450 N

k = Spring Constant = ?

x = Stretched Length = 30 cm = 0.3 m

Therefore,

450 N = k(0.3 m)

k = 450 N/0.3 m

k = 1500 N/m

Now, the formula for the work done in stretching the spring is given as:

W = (1/2)kx²

Where,

W = Work done = ?

k = 1500 N/m

x = 70 cm - 40 cm = 0.3 m

Therefore,

W = (1/2)(1500 N/m)(0.3 m)²

<u>W = 67.5 J</u>

A uniform rod of length L is pivoted at L/4 from one end. It is pulled to one side through a very small angle and allowed to osc
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

T= 4.24sec

Explanation:

We are going to use the formula below to calculate.

T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L}{g} }

Where T is period

           L is length of rod

       g is acceleration due to gravity =     9.8m/s^{2}

From the problem, the rod is pivoted at 1/4L which means that three quarter of the rod was used for the oscillation. lets call this L_{O}

L_{O} = 3/4 * 5.95m

        = 4.4625m

thus   T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{L_{O} }{g} }

          T=2\pi \sqrt{\frac{4.4625 }{9.8} }

          T= 4.24sec

A charge moves a distance of 1.8 cm in the direction of a uniform electric field having a magnitude of 214 N/C. The electrical p
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

 13.4 x 10 raise to power -19  C

Explanation:

. The distance moved by a charge in the direction of a uniform electric field is d= 1.8 cm =0.018 m

. The uniform electric field is  E = 214 N/M

, The decrease in electrical potential energy is   d(P.E) = 51.63 x 10 raise to power -19 J

Let the magnitude of the charge of the moving particle be q

which is given by the equation

d(P.E) =qEd

51.63 x 10 power -19 = q(214)(0.018)

51.63 x 10 power -19 =3.852q

by making q the formular,

q = 13.4 x 10 power -19 C
