Answer:

0.281  m

Explanation:

Applying,

W = 0.5ke².................. Equation 1

Where W = Workdone by the stretched spring, k = spring constant, e = extension/ compression of the spring

make e the subject of the equation

e = √(2W/k)................ Equation 2

From the question,

Given: W = 1.240J, k = 31.50 N/m

Substitute these values into equation 2

e = √(2×1.240/31.50)

e = √(0.07873)

e = 0.281  m

What force in Newton is required to accelerate a car starting from rest to 20 m/s in 15 seconds if the mass of the car is 2500 k
Lyrx [107]

We will solve this question using the second law of motion which states that force is directly equal to the product of mass and acceleration.

\sf \: F=ma

Where,

  • F is force
  • m is mass
  • a is acceleration

In our case,

  • F = ?
  • m = 2500 kg
  • a = 20m/s

\tt \: F_{net}  = 2500 \times 20 \\   \tt= 50000

<em>Thus, The force of 50000 Newton is required to accelerate a car of 2500 kg...~</em>

Which statements describe the relationship between the area and the biodiversity of an ecosystem? Check all that apply. Large ec
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

A large area of a forest will likely have higher biodiversity than a smaller area of the same forest.

A half acre of rainforest would likely have greater biodiversity than a full acre of desert.

Explanation:

biodiversity of an ecosystem can be simply explain as the variability that exist in the ecosystem. These are difference that exist between living organism in terms of their habitat, their species and so on. However there exist different relationship between the area of ecosystem and the biodiversity of an ecosystem such that An ecosystem with large area of a forest will likely have higher biodiversity than a smaller area of the same forest.

Another one is that A half acre of rainforest would likely have greater biodiversity than a full acre of desert.

Atoms are known to form charges due to their ability to gain and lose electrons in reactions. As a result, atoms
galben [10]

Answer:

C. Fe: 24 electrons

Explanation:

From the analogy given, the atom with a charge of +2 is Fe having 24 electrons.

To calculate the charges on an atom;

     Number of charges = Number of protons - Number of electrons.

   O: 10 electrons: 8 protons = 8 - 10 = -2

   N: 10 electrons; 7 protons = 7 - 10 = -3

   Cl: 18 electrons; 17 protons = 17 - 18 = -1

So;

    Fe: 24 electrons and 26 protons = 26 -24  = +2

Therefore, the solution is Fe
