A horizontal spring required a force of 1.0 N to compress it 0.1 m. How much work is required to stretch the spring 0.4 m?

Physics
1 answer:
Crank3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

<h2>0.5J</h2>

Explanation:

given data

Force applied F= 1N

extension e= 0.1m

let us find the spring constant first

applying

F=ke

k=F/e

k=1/0.1

k=10N/m

Step two:

Required is the work done

we know that the expression/formula for the work done by a spring is given as

Wd=1/2kx^2

x=0.4m

substitute

Wd= 1/2*10*0.4^2

Wd=0.5*10*0.16

Wd=0.5J

How can you increase the intensity of sound waves
VladimirAG [237]

Answer

The intensity of a sound wave depends on the pressure of the wave,density of the medium and speed of sound in the medium. Higher density and higher sound speed both give a lower intensity. and may be it is because that sound wave is more characterize by wavelength than frequency..explanation

Explanation:

As decibel levels get higher, sound waves have greater intensity and sounds are louder. For every 10-decibel increase in the intensity of sound, loudness is 10 times greater. Intensity of sound results from two factors: the amplitude of the sound waves and how far they have traveled from the source of the sound.

A 0.50 kg object is attached to a spring with force constant 157 N/m so that the object is allowed to move on a horizontal frict
Genrish500 [490]

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of an object is 0.5 kg

Force constant of the spring is 157 N/m

The object is released from rest when the spring is compressed 0.19 m.

(A) The force acting on the object is given by :

F = kx

F=157\times 0.19\\\\F=29.83\ N

(B) The force is simply given by :

F = ma

a is acceleration at that instant

a=\dfrac{F}{m}\\\\a=\dfrac{29.83}{0.5}\\\\a=59.66\ m/s^2

A current of 5 A is flowing in a 20 mH inductor. The energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is:_______
Kipish [7]

Answer:

C. 0.25J

Explanation:

Energy stored in the magnetic field of the inductor is expressed as E = 1/2LI² where;

L is the inductance

I is the current flowing in the inductor

Given parameters

L = 20mH = 20×10^-3H

I = 5A

Required

Energy stored in the magnetic field.

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 5²

E = 1/2 × 20×10^-3 × 25

E = 10×10^-3 × 25

E = 0.01 × 25

E = 0.25Joules.

Hence the energy stored in the magnetic field of this inductor is 0.25Joules

An airplane accelerates down a runmway at 2.9 m/s/s for 38.5 seconds
Serhud [2]

Given,

the initial velocity = 0 m /s.

acceleration = 3.20 m / s^2

time = 32.8 s

According to laws of motion.

s = ut + 1/2 at ^2

s = 1/2 at²

s=1/2(3.20)(32.8)²

s= 1721.344 m

the distance traveled before takeoff is 1731.3m

Two factor that affect gravitational force​
Gnoma [55]
When dealing with the force of gravity between two objects, there are only two things that are important – mass, and distance. The force of gravity depends directly upon the masses of the two objects, and inversely on the square of the distance between them.
