1 answer:

5 0

Answer: Light could be thought of as a stream of tiny particles discharged by luminous objects that travel in straight paths.

Explanation:

We can define "radiation" as the transmision of energy trough waves or particles.

Particularly, light is a form of electromagnetic radiation, so the "tiny particles" of light are discharged by a radiating object, particularly we can be more explicit and call it a luminous object, in this way we are being specific about the nature of the radiation of the object.

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The work done by the spring is = $0.27 J$

Explanation:

Force = torque × length

Given

F = 9.13 N

length (L) = 5.91 cm = 0.0591 m [Note 1 m = 100 cm ]

considering the formula above

$9.13 = k * 0.0591$ where k denotes torque

$k = 154.48\ N/m$

Energy Stored $= \frac{1}{2} k x^2$

$= \frac{1}{2} * 154.48 * (0.0591)^2$

$= 0.27J$

A light horizontal spring has a spring constant of 138 N/m. A 3.35 kg block is pressed against one end of the spring, compressin

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

$U_k = 0.113$

Explanation:

using the law of the conservation of energy:

$E_i -E_f=W_f$

$\frac{1}{2}Kx^2=NU_kd$

where K is the spring constant, x is the spring compression, N is the normal force of the block, $U_k$ is the coefficiet of kinetic friction and d is the distance.

Also, by laws of newton, N is calculated by:

N = mg

N = 3.35 kg * 9.81 m/s

N = 32.8635

So, Replacing values on the first equation, we get:

$\frac{1}{2}(138)(0.123)^2= (32.8635)U_k(0.281m)$

solving for $U_k$ :

$U_k = 0.113$
