Is the amount of stretch of the springs proportional to the hanging mass? Explain briefly.

Physics
1 answer:
Leviafan [203]3 years ago

Answer:

When connected in parallel, the extension of both springs is the same, and the total elastic force will be equal to the sum of the forces in each spring: x=x1=x2,F=F1+F2. F=F1+F2,⇒kx=k1x1+k2x2=(k1+k2)x,⇒k=k1+k2.

Answer:

Current in a parallel circuit = 0.61 amps (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Voltage V = 6 volt

Two resistors = 17.2 , 22.4 in parallel circuit

Find:

Current in a parallel circuit

Computation:

1/R = 1/r1 + 1 / r2

1/R = 1/17.2 + 1 / 22.4

R = 9.73 ohms (Approx)

Current in a parallel circuit = V / R

Current in a parallel circuit = 6 / 9.73

Current in a parallel circuit = 0.61 amps (Approx)

Is it possible for the velocity of an object to be zero and its acceleration not zero?
Nesterboy [21]

Explanation:

Yes, it is possible to have zero speed while accelerating, but only for a moment. ... acceleration is the rate at which the speed and direction of an object changes over time, so whenever an object goes through zero speed while reversing directions, it has non-acceleration. zero but a speed of zero.

several months after a forest is cut down, a nearby river becomes much muddier than ever before. Infer how the river changed
ryzh [129]
Well this is just my opinion but I think because all the plants were gone they cant stop mud from rolling into it. Also when it rains the trees wont suck up the water, that will make it over flow and release into the land or dirt on the outsides of it. Mixing those two gives mud and it can potentially flow back in the river in largeish masses causing the river to mix with the mud makinging it more muddy. Hope this helps :D

Imagine two people , each seating on an office chair with wheels. One pushes against the other Describe what happen next Explain
zaharov [31]

Answer:

The two chairs and those sitting on them will move in nearly opposite directions at almost the same speed (assuming that the wheels can only move into two directions - front or back and assuming that the weight of both people are almost the same)

Explanation:

Newton's Third Law states that If an object X exerts a force on object Y, then object Y must exert a force of equal magnitude and opposite direction back on object X.

In other words, when force is applied from source A at B and in direction of B, B also simultaneously returns the force on B and in the direction of B.

This law applies when we jump off the ground when a rocket takes off from the earth into space, etc.

While standing, the body pushes on the earth with a force equal to its own weight. If the ground underneath the body does not meet that force in an equal and opposite direction,  both standing on the earth will fall into the earth, with the earth caving underneath it.

You can see why it is important to have a strong foundation for a building and why the depth and strength of the foundation will depend on how much weight is going on it.

Cheers!
