A light spring having a force constant of 115 N/m is used to pull a 9.00 kg sled on a horizontal frictionless ice rink. The sled

has an acceleration of 2.10 m/s2. Part A By how much does the spring stretch if it pulls on the sled horizontally

Answer:

Stretch in the spring = 0.1643 (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the sled (m) = 9 kg

Acceleration of the sled (a) = 2.10 m/s ²

Spring constant (k) = 115 N/m

Computation:

Tension force in the spring  (T) = ma

Tension force in the spring  (T) = 9 × 2.10

Tension force in the spring  (T) = 18.9 N

Tension force in the spring = Spring constant (k) × Stretch in the spring

18.9 N = 115 N  × Stretch in the spring

Stretch in the spring = 18.9 / 115

Stretch in the spring = 0.1643 (Approx)

Answer:

Option C

Maximum potential energy is at point R.

Explanation:

Potential energy is a product of mass, acceleration due to gravity and height ie

PE=mgh where PE is the potential energy, m is mass of an object, g is acceleration due to gravity whose value is normally taken as 9.81 and h is height. Since at point R we have the maximum height, the potential energy will be highest at this point.

Many minerals, such as silver, are good conductors of heat and electricity. How could technology use this property to help ident
Aleks [24]

Answer:

This property could be used to create technologically-advanced tools or machines that could easily locate the mineral deposits.

Explanation:

Mineral deposits are hard to find, unless you have the skill or the proper tools in locating them. This is the reason why many people are mining in order to explore the different areas where they could find these deposits.

If one would consider the property of minerals, such as being good conductors of heat and electricity,<u> then they could create a tool or machine that would aid in their exploration.</u> Inventors could probably come up with a sensitive detector which signals when it reaches an area of high heat and electric conductivity. Since most minerals such as <em>gold, silver, copper, galena, bornite </em>and the like have this property, then miners will have a lesser amount of time looking for them.

If this technology will be implemented, though, regulation policy must be strictly implemented because it might lead to<em> over-mining</em> thus leading to the depletion of mineral deposits.
