Answer:
Explanation:
The PE equation for a mass/spring system is
Δx² and filling in:
and
so
k = 26000 N/m
If the displacement from equilibrium changes more, the PE needed to compress it will also change.
gives us that
PE = 520J
Answer:
Driver hits the dog
Explanation:
From kinematics equation
and making a the subject
F=ma=800*-4=-3200 N
The driver is required to apply a force of 3200 N to effectively not hit the dog. However, when the driver applies 2000 N, this is less the required force by 1200 N hence the driver hits the dog.
Answer:
Explanation:
The hippopotamus hearing threshold is 100dB
β = 100 dB
The threshold of human hearing is Io = 1 × 10^-12 W/m²
The sound intensity level is given as
β = 10•Log(I / Io)
100 = 10•Log(I / Io)
Divided Both sides by 10
100 / 10 = Log(I / Io)
10 = Log(I / Io)
Take inverse Logarithm ( antilog) of both sides
10^10 = 10^[Log(I / Io)]
10^10 = I / Io
Then,
I = 10^10 × Io
I = 10^10 × 1 × 10^-12
I = 1 × 10^-2 W/m²
I = 0.01 W/m²
The sound intensity is 0.01 W/m²
The formula is used when the statement of second law of motion is applied to the problem. If the statement is applied to the problem, The fomula will be used. If not, use the formula
