Answer:

<h2>1567.09 N/m</h2>

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

mass m=5kg

compression x= 3.13cm to m= 0.0313m

<em>According to Hooke's law, provided the elastic limit of an elastic material is not exceeded the extension e is directly proportional to the applied force</em>

F=ke

where

k= spring constant in N/m

e= extension/compression in

Step two:

assume g= 9.81m/s^2

F=mg

F=5*9.81

F=49.05N

substitute in the expression F=ke

49.05=k*0.0313

k=49.05/0.0313

k=1567.09 N/m

<u>The force constant (in N/m) of the spring is 1567.09 N/m</u>

Two cars collide on the parkway. The drivers are following too closely and the driver in the front slows because of traffic to a
musickatia [10]

Answer:

The are moving with a speed of 25 m/s after the collision.

Explanation:

assuming the mass (m) of the cars are equal, let v = 20 m/s be the velocity of the driver in the front and u = 30 m/s be the velocity of the driver behind. let V be the velocity of the cars after the collision.

then, by conservation of linear momentum:

m×(v + u) = V×2×m

(v + u) = V×2

V = (v + u)/2

  = (20 + 30)/2

  = 25 m/s

Therefore, the are moving with a speed of 25 m/s after the collision.
