Answer:

26.59 N/m

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (m) = 131 g

Extention (e) = 4.82755 cm

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Spring constant (K) =?

Next, we shall convert 131 g to Kg. This can be obtained as follow:

1000 g = 1 Kg

Therefore,

131 g = 131 g × 1 Kg / 1000 g

131 g = 0.131 Kg

Thus, 131 g is equivalent to 0.131 Kg.

Next, we shall the force exerted by the ball on the spring. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 0.131 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Force (F) =?

F = ma

F = 0.131 × 9.8

F = 1.2838 N

Next, we shall convert 4.82755 cm to metre (m)

This can be obtained as follow:

100 cm = 1 m

Therefore,

4.82755 cm = 4.82755 cm × 1 m / 100 cm

4.82755 cm = 0.0482755 m

Thus, 4.82755 cm is equivalent to 0.0482755 m

Finally, we shall determine the spring constant as follow:

Force (F) = 1.2838 N

Extention (e) = 0.0482755 m

Spring constant (K) =?

F = Ke

1.2838 = K × 0.0482755

Divide both side by 0.0482755

K = 1.2838 / 0.0482755

K = 26.59 N/m

Thus the spring constant is 26.59 N/m

A van is traveling with an initial velocity of 12 m/s. The driver takes a time of 45 seconds to speed up to a velocity of 20 m/s

Rufina [12.5K]

Initial velocity=u=12m/s
Final velocity=v=20m/s
Time=t=45s

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow Acceleration=\dfrac{v-u}{t}$

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow Acceleration=\dfrac{20-12}{45}$

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow Acceleration=\dfrac{8}{45}$

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow Acceleration=0.1m/s^2$

Now

Distance=s

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow v^2-u^2=2as$

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow (20)^2-12^2=2(0.1)s$

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow 400-144=0.2s$

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow 256=0.2s$

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow s=\dfrac{256}{0.2}$

$\\ \rm\hookrightarrow s=1280m$

The volume of liquid flowing per second is called the volume flow rate Q and has the dimensions of [L]3/[T]. The flow rate of li

melamori03 [73]

Answer: n=4

Explanation:

We have the following expression for the volume flow rate $Q$ of a hypodermic needle:

$Q=\frac{\pi R^{n}(P_{2}-P_{1})}{8\eta L}$ (1)

Where the dimensions of each one is:

Volume flow rate $Q=\frac{L^{3}}{T}$

Radius of the needle $R=L$

Length of the needle $L=L$

Pressures at opposite ends of the needle $P_{2}$ and $P_{1}=\frac{M}{LT^{2}}$

Viscosity of the liquid $\eta=\frac{M}{LT}$

We need to find the value of $n$ whicha has no dimensions, and in order to do this, we have to rewritte (1) with its dimensions:

$\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi L^{n}(\frac{M}{LT^{2}})}{8(\frac{M}{LT}) L}$ (2)

We need the right side of the equation to be equal to the left side of the equation (in dimensions):

$\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi}{8} \frac{ L^{n}}{LT}$ (3)

$\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi}{8} \frac{ L^{n-1}}{T}$ (4)

As we can see $n$ must be 4 if we want the exponent to be 3:

$\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi}{8} \frac{ L^{4-1}}{T}$ (5)

Finally:

$\frac{L^{3}}{T}=\frac{\pi}{8} \frac{ L^{3}}{T}$ (6)
