Answer:

0.83 J of work

Explanation:

2 J of work is required to stretch a spring from 34cm to 46cm

So that is 12cm stretched with 2 J of work

We can make that 6cm for 1 J of work

So, we need the find the work for stretching 36cm to 41cm

Which is 5cm

So, What is the work required to stretch 5cm?

1 J of work for 6cm

x work for 5cm

So, by proportion method

1 : 6 :: x : 5

6 * x = 1 * 5

6x = 5

x = 5/6

= 0.83

So to stretch 36cm to 41cm we need 0.83 J of work

The world's most powerful laser is the LFEX laser in Japan. It can produce a 2 petawatt(2×10^15W) laser pulse that last for 1 ps
kogti [31]

Answer:

2.82942\times 10^{24}\ W\m^2

Explanation:

d = Diameter of spot = 30 μm

r = Radius of spot = \frac{d}{2}=\frac{30}{2}=15\ mu m

P = Power of the laser = 2\times 10^{15}\ W

A = Area = \pi r^2

Intensity is given by

I=\frac{P}{A}\\\Rightarrow I=\frac{2\times 10^{15}}{\pi\times (15\times 10^{-6})^2}\\\Rightarrow I=2.82942\times 10^{24}\ W/m^2

The light intensity within this spot is 2.82942\times 10^{24}\ W/m^2

Which type of comb would be best to use in the winter, a plastic comb or a glass comb? Explain using the Triboelectric series.
leonid [27]

Answer:

I'm not sure how to use it using the Series, but it would be the plastic comb

Explanation:

In the winter, it's likely to be cold and the glass would absorb that energy, also making it cold. in order to be able to hold it, you would need something warm, thus making the plastic one the better option as it is less likely to absorb the cold energy

Ms. Stafford wants to try racing with a push start. A student pushes her at 5 m/s before the rocket kicks in. The rocket still o
Gnom [1K]
The initial velocity of Ms. Stafford is v_0 = 5 m/s, while her acceleration is 
a=4 m/s^2
This is a uniform accelerated motion, so we can calculate the total distance travelled by Ms. Stafford in a time of t=7.0 s using the law of motion for a uniform accelerated motion:
S=v_0t +  \frac{1}{2} at^2 = (5 m/s)(7.0 s)+ \frac{1}{2}(2 m/s^2)(7.0 s)^2 = 84 m
