Answer:
A. It is always a positive force
Explanation:
Hooke's law describes the relation between an applied force and extension ability of an elastic material. The law states that provided the elastic limit, e, of a material is not exceeded, the force, F, applied is proportional to the extension, x, provided temperature is constant.
i.e F = - kx
where k is the constant of proportionality, and the minus sign implies that the force is a restoring force.
The applied force can either be compressing or stretching force.
Newton's 2nd law of motion:
Force = (mass) x (acceleration)
Divide each side by (mass):
Acceleration = (force) / (mass)
= (100 N) / (50 kg)
= 2 m/s²
I don't know I guess its the plate tectonics
Given:
u(initial velocity)=0
v(final velocity)= 10 m/s
t= 4 sec
Now we know that
v= u + at
Where v is the final velocity
u is the initial velocity
a is the acceleration measured in m/s^2
t is the time measured in sec
10=0+ax4
a=10/4
a=2.5 m/s^2
