A spring with an unknown spring constant is hung vertically, and a 200 g (0.200 kg) mass is attached to the bottom. If the sprin

g stretches 0.250 m from its resting position to the position at which the hanging mass is in equilibrium, what is the spring constant of this spring?

Answer:

k = 7.84 N/m

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass hanging object; m = 0.2 kg

Extension; Δx = 0.25 m

Now, formula for the force is;

F = k•Δx

Where k is the spring constant

Since we have mass, then F = W = mg = 0.2 × 9.8 = 1.96 N

Thus;

1.96 = k × 0.25

k = 1.96/0.25

k = 7.84 N/m

Describe the formation of the land, the atmosphere, and the oceans of earth
Firlakuza [10]
Land: Tectonic plate movement under the Earth can create landforms by pushing up mountains and hills. Erosion by water and wind can wear down land and create landforms like valleys and canyons. ... Landforms can exist under water in the form of mountain ranges and basins under the sea.

Atmosphere: (4.6 billion years ago)
As Earth cooled, an atmosphere formed mainly from gases spewed from volcanoes. It included hydrogen sulfide, methane, and ten to 200 times as much carbon dioxide as today's atmosphere. After about half a billion years, Earth's surface cooled and solidified enough for water to collect on it.

Ocean: After the Earth's surface had cooled to a temperature below the boiling point of water, rain began to fall—and continued to fall for centuries. As the water drained into the great hollows in the Earth's surface, the primeval ocean came into existence. The forces of gravity prevented the water from leaving the planet.
