Answer:

The extension of the spring is 0.392 m.

Explanation:

Given;

spring constant, k = 50 N/m

mass attached to the spring, m = 2.0 kg

let the extension of the spring = x

The extension of the spring is calculated by applying Hook's law;

F = kx

mg = kx

x = \frac{mg}{k} \\\\x = \frac{2 \times 9.8}{50} \\\\x = 0.392 \ m

Therefore, the extension of the spring is 0.392 m.

What evidence would you observe if the law of conservation of mass is obeyed when mixing two solutions?​
Marianna [84]

Answer:

You should have noticed that the number of atoms in the reactants is the same as the number of atoms in the product. The number of atoms is conserved during the reaction. However, you will also see that the number of molecules in the reactants and products are not the same.

A hockey puck sliding on smooth ice at 4 m/s comes to a 1-m-high hill. Will it make it to the top of the hill?
solniwko [45]

Answer:

No  it will not make to the top of the hill  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The velocity is  v  =  4 \ m/s

    The height of the hill is  h  = 1 \  m

Generally from the law of energy conservation we have that

   The kinetic energy of the pluck at the level position =  The potential energy of the pluck at the maximum height the  pluck can get  to  

So

       \frac{1}{2}  * m * v^2 =  m *  g *  h_{max}

=>    \frac{1}{2}   * v^2 =    g *  h_{max}

=>     h_{max} =   \frac{0.5 * v^2}{g}

=>     h_{max} =  0.8163 \  m

Given that the maximum height which the pluck can get to at this speed given in the question is less than the height of the hill then conclusion will be that the pluck will not make it to the top of the hill

An 80-kg man climbs a 6-m ladder in 12 seconds. what is his average power expended?
Molodets [167]
If the ladder is vertical, then the work done in ascending equals his increase in potential energy. 
For a man of mass (m) climbing height (h), the PE is (mgh), where g is the acceleration due to gravity. 

If he does this in time t, his average power (rate of working) is: 
mgh / t 
= 80 * 9.81 * 6 / 12 
= 392.4 W. 

If the ladder is not vertical but inclined at an angle the horizontal, the power is mgh sin(a) / t.

A wave has a wavelength of 8 mm and a frequency of 4 hertz. What is its speed?
Valentin [98]
Remember that the speed of a wave is the product of both the wavelength and the frequency of the wave.

First convert the units to m and then multiply the values to calculate its propagation or wave speed.

C = lambda • frequency.
