A block of mass 200g is oscillating on the end of a horizontal spring of spring constant 100 N/m and natural length 12 cm. When

malfutka [58]

In order to determine the acceleration of the block, use the following formula:

$F=ma$

Moreover, remind that for an object attached to a spring the magnitude of the force acting over a mass is given by:

$F=kx$

Then, you have:

$ma=kx$

by solving for a, you obtain:

$a=\frac{kx}{m}$

In this case, you have:

k: spring constant = 100N/m

m: mass of the block = 200g = 0.2kg

x: distance related to the equilibrium position = 14cm - 12cm = 2cm = 0.02m

Replace the previous values of the parameters into the expression for a:

$a=\frac{(\frac{100N}{m})(0.02m)}{0.2\operatorname{kg}}=10\frac{m}{s^2}$

Hence, the acceleration of the block is 10 m/s^2

A gas expands against a constant external pressure of 2.00 atm until its volume has increased from 6.00 to 10.00 L. During this

mars1129 [50]

Answer:

ΔU = - 310.6 J (negative sign indicates decrease in internal energy)

W = 810.6 J

Explanation:

Using first law of thermodynamics:

Q = ΔU + W

where,

Q = Heat Absorbed = 500 J

ΔU = Change in Internal Energy of Gas = ?

W = Work Done = PΔV =

P = Pressure = 2 atm = 202650 Pa

ΔV = Change in Volume = 10 L - 6 L = 4 L = 0.004 m³

Therefore,

Q = ΔU + PΔV

500 J = ΔU + (202650 Pa)(0.004 m³)

ΔU = 500 J - 810.6 J

ΔU = - 310.6 J (negative sign indicates decrease in internal energy)

The work done can be simply calculated as:

W = PΔV

W = (202650 Pa)(0.004 m³)

W = 810.6 J

I'm confusion, can I please get help???

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Anything below 7.0 is acidic, so the range would be 0 to 7.

Neutral is simply 7, in the middle of the scale.

Lastly, anything above 7.0 is basic or alkaline, so that would be 7 to 14.

Good luck, I hope this helps

HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!!!

As per the given Figure attached here we know that both charges q1 and q2 will apply same force on charge q3 and hence the resultant force due to both charges will be along Y axis vertically upwards

So here we know that

$F = \frac{kq_1q_3}{d_{13}^2}$

now from the above equation

$F = \frac{(9\times 10^9)(2\times 10^{-6})(4 \times 10^{-6})}{0.5^2}$

$F = 0.288 N$

so both of the charges will apply 0.288 N force on q3 charge along the line joining them

now the net force due to vector sum is given by

$F_{net} = 2Fcos\theta$

here we know that angle is

$\theta = 37 degree$

now we have

$F_{net} = 2\times 0.288 cos37$

$F_{net} = 0.46 N$

so net force on q3 is 0.46 N vertically upwards along +Y axis
