A student carried out an experiment adding different weights to a spring and recording the results. Look at the table of results
MAXImum [283]

Answer:

0.25 m.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the spring constant of the spring.

From the diagram, we shall used any of the weight with the corresponding extention to determine the spring constant. This is illustrated below:

Force (F) = 0.1 N

Extention (e) = 0.125 m

Spring constant (K) =?

F = Ke

0.1 = K x 0.125

Divide both side by 0.125

K = 0.1/0.125

K = 0.8 N/m

Therefore, the force constant, K of spring is 0.8 N/m

Now, we can obtain the number in gap 1 in the diagram above as follow:

Force (F) = 0.2 N

Spring constant (K) = 0.8 N/m

Extention (e) =..?

F = Ke

0.2 = 0.8 x e

Divide both side by 0.8

e = 0.2/0.8

e = 0.25 m

Therefore, the number that will complete gap 1is 0.25 m.

A block lies on a plane raised an angle θ from the horizontal. Three forces act upon the block: F⃗ w, the force of gravity; F⃗ n
Verdich [7]

Answer:

YFy = 0 = Ffsinθ + Fncosθ - Fw

Explanation:

From the base of the vector Fn, draw a vertical line. the small angle between this line and Fn is also theta. The component of Fn in the vertical direction is Fncos(theta).

Take a moment to picture extreme cases. Sine is 0 at 0 and 1 at 90. Cosine is 1 at 0 and 0 at 90.

In the equation for the gravitational force between two objects, which quantity must be squared?
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

The distance between the two objects must be squared.

Explanation:

Gravitational force always act between two objects that have mass. The gravitational force is a weak force and attractive in nature.

The force of pull depends on the masses of the two objects and the distance between them.

The formula to calculate gravitational force between two objects having masses 'm' and 'M' and separated by a distance 'd' is given as:

F_g=\frac{GmM}{d^2}

Where, 'G' is called the universal gravitational constant and its value is equal to 6.674\times10^{-11}\ m^3 kg^{-1} s^{-2}.

Now, from the above formula, it is clear that, the force of gravitation is inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the two objects.

Thus, the quantity that must be squared in the equation of gravitational force between two objects is the distance 'd'.
