Answer:

9.2 amperes

Explanation:

Ohm's law states that the voltage V across a conductor of resistance R is given by $V = R I$

Here, voltage V is proportional to the current I.

For voltage, unit is volts (V)

For current, unit is amperes (A)

For resistance, unit is Ohms (Ω)

Put R = 12.5 and V = 115 in V=RI

$115=12.5I\\I=\frac{115}{12.5}\\ =9.2\,\,amperes$

When three people with a total mass of 2.00 x 102 kg step into their 1.200 x 103 kg car, the car’s

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

$k = 457333.3 N/m$

$x_a =0.09\ m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The total mass of three people is $M = 2.00*10^{2} \ kg$

The mass of the car is $m_c = 1.200 *10^{3} \ kg$

The compression of the car spring is $x = 3 \ cm = 0.03 \ m$

Generally the spring constant is mathematically represented as

$k = \frac{F}{x}$

Here F is the force exerted by the mass of three people and that of the car , this is mathematically represented as

=> $F = (M +m_c) *g$

=> $F = ([2.0*10^{2} ]+[ 1.200*10^{3}]) * 9.8$

=> $F = 13720 \ N$

$k = \frac{13720}{0.03}$

=> $k = 457333.3 N/m$

Generally if the mass which the car is loaded with is $m = 3.00*10^{2} \ kg$

Then the force experienced by the spring is

=> $F_a = (m +m_c) *g$

=> $F_a = (3.00*10^{3} + 1.200 *10^{3}) * 9.8$

=> $F_a = 41160 \ N$

Generally from the above formula the compression is

$x_a = \frac{F_a}{k}$

=> $x_a = \frac{41160}{457333.3}$

=> $x_a =0.09\ m$

A spring with spring constant 450 N/m is stretched by 12 cm. What distance is required to double the amount of potential energy

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

The distance required = 16.97 cm

Explanation:

Hook's Law

From Hook's law, the potential energy stored in a stretched spring

E = 1/2ke² ......................... Equation 1

making e the subject of the equation,

e = √(2E/k)........................ Equation 2

Where E = potential Energy of the stretched spring, k = elastic constant of the spring, e = extension.

Given: k = 450 N/m, e = 12 cm = 0.12 m.

E = 1/2(450)(0.12)²

E = 225(0.12)²

E = 3.24 J.

When the potential energy is doubled,

I.e E = 2×3.24

E = 6.48 J.

Substituting into equation 2,

e = √(2×6.48/450)

e = √0.0288

e = 0.1697 m

e = 16.97 cm

Thus the distance required = 16.97 cm
