Answer:

20 N/m

Explanation:

4/0.2 = 20 N/m

/ = divide

Answer: 200 N/m

Explanation:

The Gravitational spring energy(Us) is equal to 1/2kx^2. So we have x as .2 m and Us as 4 N. So 4 N = 1/2 * k * .2^2. So now we solve for K and get 200 N/m.

bija089 [108]

Answer:

1411.8 N/m

Explanation:

From Hooke's law;

F= Ke

Where

F= force on the spring

K= force constant

e = extension

But e= 8.50 × 10^-2m

F= weight = 12.0 kg × 10 = 120 N

K = F/e = 120/8.50 × 10^-2

K= 1411.8 N/m

A tight knot can be easily opens by using a longer spanner. Give reasons
kobusy [5.1K]

It is because the effort distance is greater than the load distance

Explanation:

As we know, Effort×effort distance = load × load distance

So when effort distance is increases,

The effort decreases

So when the spanner’s handle is long

A tight knot can easily be opened by less effrot

A sample container of carbon monoxide occupies a volume of 435 ml at a pressure of 785 torr and a temperature of 298 k. What wou
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

181.54 K

Explanation:

From gas laws, we know that v1/t1= v2/t2 where v and t represent volume and temperatures, 1 and 2 for the first and second container. Making t2 the subject of the formula then

T2=v2t1/ v1

Given information

V1 435 ml

V2 265 ml

T1 298K

Substituting the given values then

T2=265*298/435=181.54 K

Instantaneous speed is measured
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

C. At a particular instant

Explanation:

Speed is the defined as the ratio between the distance covered by an object and the time taken:

v=\frac{d}{t}

where d is the distance and t the time.

However, there are two possible measurements of speed:

- Average speed: this is the speed measured over a non-zero time interval (for example: a car moving 100 metres in 5 seconds; its average speed is

v=\frac{100 m}{5 s}=20 m/s

- Instantaneous speed: this is the speed of an object measured at a particular instant in time, so for a time interval that tends to zero. So, in the previous example, the average speed is 20 m/s but the instantaneous speed of the car at various instants of time can be different from that value.
