Answer:

A. 6.282

B. 2.03kg

Explanation:

A.

We solve using archimedes principle

L³pwood = L²dwater

We make d subject of the formula

d = Lpwood/pester

= 18x651/1000

= 18x0.651

= 11.718cm

Distance from horizontal top to water level

= 18-11.718

= 6.282cm

B.

When we place lead block

WL + L³pwoodg = L³pwaterg

WL = L³g(Pwater-Pwood)

= 0.18³x9.8(1000-651)

= 19.94N

19.94/9.8

= 2.03kg

The mass m is therefore 2.03kg

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:

<em> The distance required = 16.97 cm</em>

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

<em>e = 16.97 cm</em>

<em>Thus the distance required = 16.97 cm</em>
