S_A_V [24]

Answer:

1keff=1k1+1k2

see further explanation

Explanation:for clarification

Show that the effective force constant of a series combination is given by 1keff=1k1+1k2. (Hint: For a given force, the total distance stretched by the equivalent single spring is the sum of the distances stretched by the springs in combination. Also, each spring must exert the same force. Do you see why?

From Hooke's law , we know that the force exerted on an elastic object is directly proportional to the extension provided that the elastic limit is not exceeded.

Now the spring is in series combination

F\alphae

F=ke

k=f/e.........*

where k is the force constant or the constant of proportionality

k=f/e

f_{eff} =f_{1} +f_{2}............................1

also for effective force constant

divide all through by extension

1) Total force is

Ft=F1+F2

Ft=k1e1+k2e2

F = k(e1+e2) 2)

Since force on the 2 springs is the same, so

k1e1=k2e2

e1=F/k1 and e2=F/k2,

and e1+e2=F/keq

Substituting e1 and e2, you get

1/keq=1/k1+1/k2

Hint: For a given force, the total distance stretched by the equivalent single spring is the sum of the distances stretched by the springs in combination.

Will mark brainliest! Please help!
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

30 seconds

Explanation:

A = A02^-(t/hl)

--> ln(A/A0) = -(t/hl)ln2

solving for hl,

hl = -t x ln2 /ln(A/A0)

= -(60 min)xln2/ln(50/200)

= 0.5 min or 30 seconds

*URGENT* Why is understanding motion so important? Be sure to explain in your own words.
levacccp [35]

Answer:

Motion is one of the important issues of Physics. We know that if we are not moving but still earth is moving. Motion is a bit of the machinist's Department of Physics. Several laws are provided for explaining the theory of motion and evolution in motion. The motion and transformation are defined in terms of strength which is wanted for creating an object in a motion state.

What is a common misconception/mistake made when calculating the final velocity for a falling object
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

Velocity (v) can be calculated via v = gt, where g represents the acceleration due to gravity and t represents time in free fall. Furthermore, the distance traveled by a falling object (d) is calculated via d = 0.5gt^2.
