Answer:
F₂= 210 pounds
Explanation:
Conceptual analysis
Hooke's law
Hooke's law establishes that the elongation (x) of a spring is directly proportional to the magnitude of force (F) applied to it, provided that said spring is not permanently deformed:
F= K*x Formula (1)
Where;
F is the magnitude of the force applied to the spring in Newtons (Pounds)
K is the elastic spring constant, which relates force and elongation. The higher its value, the more work it will cost to stretch the spring. (Pounds/inch)
x the elongation of the spring (inch)
Data
The data given is incorrect because if we apply them the answer would be illogical.
The correct data are as follows:
F₁ =80 pounds
x₁= 8 inches
x₂= 21 inches
Problem development
We replace data in formula 1 to calculate K :
F₁= K*x₁
K=( F₁) / (x₁)
K=( 80) / (8) = 10 pounds/ inche
We apply The formula 1 to calculate F₂
F₂= K*x₂
F₂= (10)*(21)
F₂= 210 pounds
Answer:
D. The tea loses heat to the spoon causing the spoon to become warmer
Explanation:
When the silver spoon at a lower temperature than the tea, is added to the tea, it makes thermal contact. Hence, the heat transfer starts between the two until the equilibrium is reached. We know that the heat transfer takes place from the body with a higher temperature to a body with a lower temperature. As a result, the body with higher temperature loses heat and its temperature lowers down. While the body with a lower temperature gains heat and its temperature rises.
Therefore, the correct option is:
<u>D. The tea loses heat to the spoon causing the spoon to become warmer</u>
The sun's source of energy is know as nuclear fusion (means to fuse) this process has a small nuclei atoms that join together to form a large nucleus. The result of this process is released energy. The fusion of hydrogen into helium in the sun makes a large amount of energy and this is known as the sun's energy source.
The theories that scientist proposed about the source of the sun's energy was that the sun burned fuel to generate its energy and that gravity was causing the sun to shrink slowly and have its energy released. Also both of these theories were disproved.

Answer:
the length of the simple pendulum is 0.25 m.
Explanation:
Given;
mass of the air-track glider, m = 0.25 kg
spring constant, k = 9.75 N/m
let the length of the simple pendulum = L
let the frequency of the air-track glider which is equal to frequency of simple pendulum = F
The oscillation frequency of air-track glider is calculated as;

The frequency of the simple pendulum is given as;

Thus, the length of the simple pendulum is 0.25 m.
Answer:
1.F = 256 N
2.a = 8 m/s/s
By looking at the given information, you know force, and an acceleration. Therefore you have enough information to use the first formula.
F = ma
256 N = m * 8 m/s/s
m = 256 N/8 m/s/s
m = 32 Kg
