What measurement do we use to determine the amount of force used to move an object by a simple machine

Physics
1 answer:
alexandr1967 [171]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Newtons.

Explanation:

Force is given by the multiplication of mass and acceleration.

Mathematically, Force is;

F = ma

Where;

F represents force measured in Newton.

m represents the mass of an object measured in kilograms.

a represents acceleration measured in meter per seconds square.

Newtons is a measurement we use to determine the amount of force used to move an object by a simple machine. It is the International System of Units (SI) used to measure force and has a symbol of N.

Basically, it was named after Sir Isaac Newton based on his fundamental works in the field of mechanics (motions).

What is the elastic potential energy of a spring that is compressed a distance of 0.35 m and has a spring constant of 71.8 N/m?
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

P.E = 4.398 Joules.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Spring constant, k = 71.8N/m

Displacement, x = 0.35m

To find the elastic potential energy;

The elastic potential energy of an object is given by the formula;

P.E = \frac {1}{2}kx^{2}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

P.E = \frac {1}{2}*71.8 *(0.35)^{2}

P.E = 35.9 * 0.1225

Elastic potential energy = 4.398 Joules.

<em>Therefore, the elastic potential energy of the spring is 4.398 Joules. </em>

Two meters are connected in a circuit to measure the current in a component and the potential difference across the component. W
denpristay [2]

Answer:

A detailed answer is given in the explanation

Explanation:

<u>FOR CURRENT MEASUREMENT</u>:

In order to measure the current in a component, an <u>Ammeter</u> is used which is included in a multimeter nowadays.

The ammeter is connected in series just before the component by just breaking the circuit at that point and connecting the two terminals of the ammeter to complete the circuit again.

<u>FOR POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE MEASUREMENT</u>:

In order to measure the potential difference across a component, a <u>Voltmeter</u> is used which is included in a multimeter nowadays.

The voltmeter is connected in parallel with the component simply, by connecting the two terminals of the voltmeter across the two ends of the component.
