Answer:

0.74 N/cm

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass (m) = 3 Kg

Extention (e) = 40 cm

Spring constant (K) =?

Next, we shall determine the force exerted on the spring.

This can be obtained as follow:

Mass (m) = 3 Kg

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

Force (F) =?

F = mg

F = 3 × 9.8

F = 29.4 N

Finally, we shall determine the spring constant of the spring. This can be obtained as follow:

Extention (e) = 40 cm

Force (F) = 29.4 N

Spring constant (K) =?

F = Ke

29.4 = K × 40

Divide both side by 40

K = 29.4 / 40

K = 0.74 N/cm

Therefore, the spring constant of the spring is 0.74 N/cm

Why you do scientists collect multiple trials?
sergiy2304 [10]

"When we do experiments it's a good idea to do multiple trials, that is, do the same experiment lots of times. When we do multiple trials of the same experiment, we can make sure that our results are consistent and not altered by random events. Multiple trials can be done at one time."

telo118 [61]

Answer:

a)30.14 rad/s2

b)43.5 rad/s

c)60633 J

d)42 kW

e)84 kW

Explanation:

If we treat the propeller is a slender rod, then its moments of inertia is

I =\frac{mL^2}{12} = \frac{107*2.68^2}{12} = 64.04 kgm^2

a. The angular acceleration is Torque divided by moments of inertia:

\alpha = \frac{T}{I} = \frac{1930}{64.04} = 30.14 rad/s^2

b. 5 revolution would be equals to 10\pi rad, or 31.4 rad. Since the engine just got started

\omega^2 = 2\alpha\theta = 2*30.14*31.4 = 1893.5

\omega = \sqrt{1893.5} = 43.5 rad/s

c. Work done during the first 5 revolution would be torque times angular displacement:

W = T*\theta = 1930 * 31.4 = 60633 J

d. The time it takes to spin the first 5 revolutions is

t = \frac{\omega}{\alpha} = \frac{43.5}{30.14} = 1.44 s

The average power output is work per unit time

P = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{60633}{1.44} = 41991 W or 42 kW

e.The instantaneous power at the instant of 5 rev would be Torque times angular speed at that time:

P_i = T*\omega = 1930*43.5=83983 W or 84 kW
