Answer:

The mass of the fish is 18.1 kg.

Explanation:

Given;

weight of the fish, F = 108 N

extension of the spring by the given weight, x = 14 cm = 0.14 m

First, determine the elastic constant of the spring by applying Hook's law;

F = kx

where;

k is the spring constant

k = F/x

k = 108 / 0.14

k = 771.43 N/m

When the spring is stretched to 23cm, the mass of the fish is calculated as follows;

F = mg = Kx\\\\m = \frac{Kx}{g} \\\\m = \frac{771.43\times 0.23}{9.8} \\\\m = 18.1 \ kg

Therefore, the mass of the fish is 18.1 kg.

According to the Doppler Effect, which statement is true about a sound as it approaches you and then moves away.
Fiesta28 [93]
As the source approaches you, the sound waves are compressed, so
the pitch of the sound is higher than what the source is actually emitting.

Then, after it passes you and begins moving away, the sound waves
are stretched, so the pitch of the sound is lower than what the source
is actually emitting.

Radda [10]

If you're willing to consider fractions or decimals,
then there are an infinite number of answers. 
Like (2.5 x 160), and (15 x 26-2/3).

If you want to stick to only whole numbers,
then these 8 combinations do:

1, 400
2, 200
4, 100
5, 80
8, 50

If you heat a fixed quantity of gas, which of the following statements are true?Check all that apply.a.The volume will always in
kherson [118]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

there is fix Quantity of gas i.e. mass of gas is constant

From ideal gas Equation

PV=nRT

(a) volume always increases is not true as Pressure can also be increased .

(b)If Pressure is constant along with mass then as Temperature increases, Volume also increases.

(c)true , Product of Pressure and volume depends upon temperature thus it also increases with temperature.

(d)Density of gas may or may not increases

As density is \frac{mass}{volume}

volume may increase or decrease as temperature increase .

(e)false

as it clearly stated that quantity of fixed therefore there is no change in gas

What is the volume of a 1.2kg and displaced 1.0g/cm3
Zinaida [17]
Mass = 1.2 kg = 1200 grams.

Volume = mass/density = 1200 cm3.

Hope this helps!
