Rupert is investigating the properties of a light (effectively massless) spring. He has attached one end of the spring to a fixe

d horizontal rod and allowed the spring to hang vertically. The free end of the spring has a small hook to which Rupert can attach various masses. An Experiment to Determine the Spring Constant Part A Rupert finds that if he attaches a 470.0 gram mass to the hook, and then very slowly lowers the mass with his hand until the force on the mass by the spring is as large as the weight of the mass, that the spring stretches by 36.0 cm . What is the spring constant of Rupert's spring

Bogdan [553]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

For equilibrium ,

weight of mass 470 gram = restoring force in spring

If x be extension in spring and k be spring constant

restoring force = kx

weight of mass = kx

.47 x 9.8 = k x .36

k = 12.8 N /m.

5 single loop of copper wire, lying flat in a plane, has an area of 8.60cm2 and a resistance of 3.00. A uniform magnetic field p
Finger [1]

Answer:

0.652 mA

Explanation:

According to Faraday's Law :

Emf = -  \frac{d \phi}{dt}

= \frac{- \delta \phi }{\delta \ t}

|E| = \frac{A ( \delta B)}{\delta t}

where ;

A = 8.60*10^{-4}

\delta B = 3.00 T - 0.5 T = 2.5 T

|E| = \frac{8.60*10^{-4}*2.5}{1.10}

|E| = 1.96*10^{-3}

Induced current  I = \frac{|E|}{R}

= \frac{1.96*10^{-3}}{3.0}

= 6.52*10^{-4} A

= 0.652 mA

Thus, the induced current in the loop of wire over this time = 0.652 A

A navy diver hears the underwater sound wave from an exploding ship across the harbor. They immediately lift their head out of t
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

s = 1800 m = 1.8 km

Explanation:

The distance, the speed, and the time of reach of the sound are related by the following formula:

s = vt

where,

s = distance

v = speed

t = time

FOR WATER:

s = v_wt ---------------------- eq (1)

where,

s = distance between ship and diver = ?

v_w = speed of sound in water = 1440 m/s

t = time taken by sound in water

FOR AIR:

s = v_a(t+4\ s) ---------------------- eq (2)

where,

s = distance between ship and diver = ?

v_a = speed of sound in water = 344 m/s

t + 4 s = time taken by sound in water

Comparing eq (1) and eq (2),because distance remains constant:

v_wt=v_a(t+4\ s)\\\\(1440\ m/s)t = (344\ m/s)(t+4\ s)\\(1440\ m/s - 344\ m/s)t=1376\ m\\t = \frac{1376\ m}{1096\ m/s}

t = 1.25 s

Now using this value in eq (1):

s = (1440\ m/s)(1.25\ s)

<u>s = 1800 m = 1.8 km</u>

What fossil fuels produce a gas when that are burned that adds to the greenhouse effect
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Carbon dioxide (CO2)

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide (CO2) makes up the vast majority of greenhouse gas emissions from the sector, but smaller amounts of methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) are also emitted. These gases are released during the combustion of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and natural gas, to produce electricity.
