Answer:

The potential  energy when it reads 40 N is PE  = 5.33 \ J

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The lowest reading of the spring balance is  0 N and this is at  0 cm = 0 m

   The height reading of the spring balance is 60 N  and this is at 20 cm =  0.20 m

   Generally the length corresponding to the reading of 40 N is mathematically represented as

       d = \frac{40 * 0.20 }{60 }

=>    d = 0.133 \  m

Generally the potential  energy is mathematically represented as

      PE = m * g * d

Here

     F = mg  =  40 N

So  

     PE = 40 * 0.133

=>  PE  = 5.33 \ J

It has been suggested that rotating cylinders about 10 mi long and 5.9 mi in diameter be placed in space and used as colonies. T
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

ω = 0.05 rad/s

Explanation:

We consider the centripetal force acting as the weight force on the surface of the cylinder. Therefore,

Centripetal Force = Weight\\\frac{mv^{2}}{r} = mg\\\\here,\\v = linear\ speed = r\omega \\therefore,\\\frac{(r\omega)^{2}}{r} = g\\\\\omega^{2} = \frac{g}{r}\\\\\omega = \sqrt{\frac{g}{r}}\\

where,

ω = angular velocity of cylinder = ?

g = required acceleration = 9.8 m/s²

r = radius of cylinder = diameter/2 = 5.9 mi/2 = 2.95 mi = 4023.36 m

Therefore,

\omega = \sqrt{\frac{9.8\ m/s^{2}}{4023.36\ m}}\\\\

<u>ω = 0.05 rad/s</u>

A soccer ball kicked with a force of 12.5 N accelerates at 6.2 m/s’ to the right. What is the mass of the ball? Answer in units
stepladder [879]

Answer:

m = 2.01[kg]

Explanation:

This problem can be solved using Newton's second law which tells us that the force applied on a body is equal to the product of mass by acceleration.

F =m*a

where:

F = force = 12.5 [N]

m = mass [kg]

a = acceleration = 6.2 [m/s²]

12.5=m*6.2\\m = 2.01[kg]

. A student times a car traveling a distance of 2 m. She finds that it takes the car 5 s to
AveGali [126]
No, the car travels 1 metre in 5s at the start which is 0.2m/s, while the second meter it travels one metre in 8 seconds which is 0.125 m/s, the speed changes therefore it is not constant during the two metres the car travels

Can Hotspots can be found at the edges of tectonic plates?
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

No.

Explanation:

Hot spots don't appear at the barriers of tectonic plates, instead, they originate at hot centres known as mantle plumes. Mantle plumes exist below the tectonic plates and may develop a string of volcanoes on the Earths surface.
