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

1 answer:

8 0

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.

A temperature inversion happens when a _____ air layer traps pollution close to the surface of the earth.

LenaWriter [7]

When warm air layer traps pollution that is within the earth's surface, a temperature inversion usually takes place. In addition, at temperature inversion happens when the cold air overlays the warm air in the troposphere, which does not usually happen since warm air rises and cold air sinks by principle.

A student places her 490 g physics book on a frictionless table. She pushes the book against a spring, compressing the spring by

Paul [167]

Answer:

book speed is 3.99 m/s

Explanation:

given data

mass m = 490 g = 0.490 kg

compressing x = 7.10 cm = 0.0710 m

spring constant k = 1550 N/m

to find out

book speed

solution

we know energy is conserve so

we can say

loss in spring energy is equal to gain in kinetic energy

$\frac{1}{2}*k*x^2 = \frac{1}{2}*m*v^2$ ..................1

put here value

$\frac{1}{2}*1550*0.071^2 = \frac{1}{2}*0.490*v^2$

v = 3.99 m/s

so book speed is 3.99 m/s
